My Ass. TC4 speed project - 121.7mph so far - 04.25.2008, 03:32 PM
Hi!

I've been reading on this board for a few weeks now and i decided to put together a small project thread for my TC4.

The car is a completly stock Associated TC4 with a Mamba Max 7700 kit in it. I run 2pcs of DesirePower 3700mAh 2S 25C LiPo's and the steering servo is Futaba 9550. The tyres are ATS foams. The body shell is a McAllister Oval body.

I have tried a few differnt LiPo's, Orion 3200mAh 22C, Flightpower 3700mAh 25C to name a few. Both where new. And the DesirePower ones are simply in another leauge. Way more powerfull and gives alot more power under load. Very well priced too!

Here are a few videos:
121.7mph: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46ssLpgky5E
100mph crash hehe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAwSb...eature=related
There alot more videos on the right on Youtube.

Pics:






Next step is to go for a differnt gearing. I will try to break 200km/h this weekend because i am at 196km/h now :)

Bye for now!

Yes sir. I've put atleast 15 runs on it and no problem at all. Although it gets "abit" hot so i don't run it for more than 3 runs at a time without a cooling pause.

@ lutach: Thank you for the welcomening :) 150mph here i come Hehe nah but it will be fun to see how far you can go with the Mamba system. 134.4.. :P

The car completly take off ... The most impressive is that's a nearly default setup a MM with 7700 kv motor.
Once again the famous rule, "the setup is as powerfull as the battery can supply" is true.

I laughed out loud when that car took off the ground. That was great.

Where do you get your DesirePower lipos? Are they made from Enerland cells like the others?

He's down by the river ... walking on water.

Welcome and very nice car!! Looking forward to some updates on new speeds. I am sure that crash gave quite a bit of damage... but I have to say, but watching it was absolutely awesome!! It just took off like 20 feet into the air!

Didn't look too bad in the crash, seems like it lost alot of speed in the air...

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

Welcome and Great Video man... I'm surprise that car can go that fast on 1400 Watts of power... Kick *ss...

Who makes the desirepower cells? Where do you buy from? They're made in China...

I bet you the DesirePower are the same cells as the Zippy Lipos from HobbyCity... :)

You found that the desirepower went faster than the FlightPowers?...
