Emaxx 3905 gearing ? - 05.12.2008, 09:00 PM

So I have an Emaxx and a Medusa 36-60-2000 v2 coming. I don't have a clue where to start my gearing.Could someone give me any ideas,PLEASE?I'll be running with a mmesc and 4s,till I can get a mmm.I'd love to buy everything from 15-25,but at 12 bucks a piece that would get a little costly.I'm looking for 40+ mph and usually don't run in thick grass.

no idea how to compare, but the Bigmaximum 4 pole 2300kv is at home at 15-17 / 52.

It's my understanding that it should be comparable to a Neu 1512 2.5d motor.I don't know if that will help someone help me or not.

I would use BrianG's top speed estimator and gear for about 40 mph. I will be trying the same motor but the 1500 kv version and gear for 40-45 on 6s. Probably about a 1:2.7 gear ratio on the pinion/spur.

Well it said 28/68 gets me to 40.So I got the only 2 he had.A 26 and a 18.I'll be able to get some different spurs to try and fine tune.

Asheck, I'm running a 1512/2.5D neu on a 24t pinion/68t spur on 5s A123(very close to 4s Lipo) and should be right in the 40mph range. The speed calc says 33mph but a bushnell radar gun said 42mph, through grass. It dosen't take much tire expansion to add quite a bit of speed to the top end.

Where did you find the 36-50-2000v2? I would have loved to have saved the 100+ extra bones I spent on the Neu

No luck at all.I called to verify and they said they were wrong they did not have that motor in stock.I called Medusa and they told me that they are expecting a shipment in the next couple weeks,but it would probably go to dealer b.o.So I cancelled my order and will find something else.Probably just go with the 50.

I bought the medusa 1500kv to run on 6s, they shipped it out today. It would supply the speed and power you want.

I'm actually thinking the 50-3300 .I don't really want to have to go 6s to reach 40,and I think the 1500 would really need at least 5 to pull some descent rpm's.

The 36-50-3300 does very well on 4s lipo(5s A123) and a 15t pinion. I bought the 3.2mm shaft version so I could use standard $4 pinions.

So would you say that geared for 40mph, on 4s it would still be able to run under 160* or so.
