Hyper Mini STe Electric 1/12 Truggy

[stum]

Well my new mini truggy shipped this afternoon from nitrohouse.. now the fun begins..

Problems? Lack of detail to calculate top speeds..

• From my understanding the diff gears are 10t and 22t (2.2 ratio)
• From my understanding the spur is 40t mod1
• No tranny - direct drive on center diff
• Tires ? 3.5" would be my best guess

Please post detail if you have more or if you know for sure!

Battery Tray Specs (should be pretty accurate)

• 5.75" long (146mm)
• 1.4375" wide (36.5mm)

My plans.. No major mods, this baby is stacked from the get go and for 199 it's a deal iMO. No junk electronics to sell off either :)

Electronics- Lucky for me I had all these sitting around other than the Rx

• MM esc - no mods (auto lipo)
• Velineon 3500kv brushless motor
• Spektrum SR3500 (finally get to use the dx3.0 thats been sitting in the corner since I got my dx3r)
• Hitec servo (sorry forget model #) 180 torque though more than enough

From the salesman (Tim) I spoke to most people are running 540 motors (not 380s) and typical setup there is an mm6900. I think the velineon is a ton better of a motor than those castles, as it stays a ton cooler geared at the same speeds. I'm only looking for 40-45mph so if my calculations are correct the included 14t pinion should be perfect (42.9). I'm a little skeptical on these calculations though but w/ a 3s on the velineon I'm getting 64mph using BrianG's calc page with the above figures. That is a bit insane and not what I'm looking for as I will be on the race track all the time. I did order a 16t pinion when I got it as Tim said everyone was running the stock pinion on a 6900 MM system on 2s considering the kv different btw the 6900 and my 3500 I thought it would be needed... but maybe not?

Again please post if you have more detail and I will update when I get the truck in a few days!! YAY! I'm so glad I saw this truck before I bought one of those new traxxas mini e-revo's. Those are pretty sweet lil trucks too but this Mini Hyper STe smokes it.


A few notes on tweaks..

Diff fluids 1 rear, 3 center, 3front is what most are using (I plan on 1, 5, 3 at first but who knows)
Springs - Losi 10th scale fit (yellow seem to be the best)
