Man this thing flies! Max motor temp was 135'f so it looks like I can step up the tooth count a little.
I may even toss in the 1717 as by the numbers under load it should top out a ~49k rpm only 4k above the "max" of 45k that's printed on the motor

I ran it out in one of the school parking lost that's about the size of a football field and you barely get it topped out before you're slamming on the brakes

it still lacks traction and goes straight into a dognut most of the time you hit the throttle. It makes enough power to do wheelies, but there's just not enough bite.

I also balled up another foam inside one of the belted ofna tires (second time), looks like I need to get some molded foam inserts.
If you didn't know the ofna's come with a foam strip insert that isn't a full circle. I may just pick up a set of foam on-road tires as well to see if I can find the best traction.

If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
