There is a ray of hope for this setup with the lower gears. First I'm going to test the 4130 further. I expect to see the cogging go away, gain some really good low speed driving. It should have explosive acceleration, but not much top end.
The 3520-7 with 650kv does get me over 50mph in the Emaxx with a 4.57:1 final reduction ratio. I once installed a 3530 (don't know how many turns), but on 6S2P A123. It was VERY impressive!! Too bad the drive dog stripped on the transmission output shaft in the very 1st run! I got about 2/3 of the charge out, and it went out. Acceleration was crazy fast and the tires ballooned so much, I never really seen it's top end. Very hard to control, if over anxious with the trigger finger. Top Speed on it had to have been in the 60's. I have another brand new 3530 waiting on the New E maxx to tame.
I decided to shrink my Lipo's in Blue. Now they closely match the Revo Chassis. They are made from 5000mah 10C cells. Each pack 2S2P will give up 100 amps Continuous and allow me 150 amp bursts. I think this 4S Lipo setup will give me all the amps I'm going to pull and more, plus some healthy runtime.
I should be working on making it lighter.
