controller advice for fastest car event - 01.09.2008, 06:41 PM

Hi there.

Im entering into the fastest r/c car challenge in march and ive got a specially modified rustler to equip with brushless.... i wont go into much detail but i need the help/advice with the setup...

Ive got a 7xl handy and a maxamps 6s 4000mah lipo....

Im torn between the quark 125b and the MGM 9032 car controller.

Yes the quark 125b is alot cheaper. but from what ive seen by searching this forum i can bring up 5-6 burned out 125b controller threads.. i dont want it smoking on me! :-(

Is it worth spending nearly £200 instead of £150 on a better controller...

Cheers
Matt.

I haven't tried it personally, but there was talk of problems with 6S on the 125B, even though it's supposed to handle it (not sure if they've made any changes to fix this). Other than that, its a great controller and I've had no problems.

I'd want a greater cushion on the amps from the MGM90 - 7XL will pull a lot....

This is rated to 8s which would be fine - is the same price and goes to 160amps...

I would say that your choice of motor is slightly unmatched to your spend on ESC. Also don't know what that motor will do at 60k.

I had a 9XL magnet shatter on 4s...

Q125 - no one seems to run it on 6s for long...

I would say that a l can feigao motor around 3000kv will hold together better than the 7xl, and spin faster. You will need some ceramic bearings in the motor too. As for the esc, a qaurk may work, but you will need to add extra caps to it, this is a must.

Well whatever you do don't by from Mattymaxx. He has messed up transactions from unlimitedengineering.com forums and has a paypal dispute.

You should not have messed up geaorge16, an active military member in the Navy like you did.

Not to worry Matty, the word is being spread to every forum you are a member of,
Mattymaxx does not delive what he has been paid for of a few occasions, and makes very make excuses and takes his time to respond to any info requested. If anyone is reading this do not do business with him as he is unreliable.

the cheek of you pal. im not the sort of person to discuss my transactions online and publicly give out every detail. I have indeed sorted this out with paypal and have sent george numerous emails about it so dont you dare start dishing out rubbish which is NOTHING to do with you.

fool.
