OK, so just a quick refresh: I'm COMPLETELY new to BL; I'm coming from the 1/8 nitro world. I NEVER race, I just kinda bash a little, jump a little, drive on grass, parking lots, and sometimes go to a bmx trail and ride with my buddie's jato. NO racing, just messin around (not really bashing - I don't beat on my cars). I DO NEED to be able to at least go as fast as my italian big block nitro buggy, but I really want to be able to hit warp speed when I find an empty parking lot!
HOWEVER, I also want something that runs reliably, every time I use it, as in MINIMAL maintenance. Like a Toyota or a Honda :) I don't want to be monitoring/ worrying about temps all day long, hence, the Neu motor.
The vehicle is a Muggy. Yes, I know, not the best choice for high speed runs. That's ok!
I'm thinking something like this:
Muggy/ mech. brakes/ MMM/ 6S Zippy H 5000 mah/ Neu 15XX/ and a XXT pinion! I know, it's vague, but I made some progress.
Soooo, here's my questions:
1) will 6S get me to warp speed?? (~60mph?) Do I need more than 6S?? Is 6S a dumb idea, or am I on the right track?
2) any idea how much runtime I can expect from a 5000mah 6S??
3) which neu motor? I'm thinking 1521/1D (2900kv), but I'm not sure why. Maybe a 1527/1D (2300kv)? Or a 1515/1.5D (2700kv)?
4) is the MMM going to be enough?
5) what size pinion??
6) where do you buy these hyperion chargers? I can't find em, and RCM only has like 1 or 2. Where can I find the whole line?
Sorry for all the questions and hella long post, but I swear I'm making progress!
