After getting a little bored with my buggy i started a new project. It's a lesser known truggy a Robitronic Mantis.
I used the same setup like in my Buggy:

pic2
The electric components:
. ESC: Jazz 55/10/32 (55A cont, 65A peak)
. motor: Neu 1512/2Y (1400 kv)
. Batteries: 10s A123 (33V)
After sorting out my pinion problem i made my 2nd maiden run yesterday. Those are a few clips shot with my digital cam:
clip1,
clip2,
clip3,
clip4,
clip5,
clip6,
This is how she looked after this rather wet run:
This is the eagletree graph from this run:
And a second one from a run with my second battery pack (driven on wet forest soil)
. The neu 1512 has more than enough torque to power this 4.9Kg (10.8) truggy. I never expected wheelies with a center diff.
. Outside temperature was a low 10°C (50°F). The motor never exceeded 37°C (99°F). Batteries and ESC were warm to the touch.
. Max recorded Ampere 63A (1700 Watt). No cogging.
. Average Amps were at 15A (400 Watt). I never exceeded 350 Watt with my buggy.
. When pushed hard a battery pack is good for 10-12 minutes
