Dual Brushless?

[Arct1k]

Sorry Brian - Another option is Mamba 4600.

I have one free and could look for another - are the too fast (not enough torque) for 3s?

[BrianG]

No, the 4600 will run on 3s (after all the sticker says it will). However, the 4600 is a little smaller than an S motor so you might start having heat troubles. I know someone over at the Traxxas forums has a single 5700 on a 2wd emaxx and swears that it runs fine, but I dunno.

If you plan to do this "just to see", that's fine. But I honestly think you'd be happier with a single XL motor on 4s, or better yet 5s.

Mike has a 7L so will see what deal he can come up with - fingers crossed less than $70 and I might give it a whirl...

Do they live in Antarctica? Greenland??

I can't remember, but I remember thinking about replying but figured it wasn't worth it.

Yeah, I know the vehicle/guy you mean, but something is rather fishy there. I tried 2wd with the Gmaxx the other day when I did that video, but there was no difference at all in power/speed/wheelies. Unless the MM is that much more powerful than The Hv6.5 I think its better to go with a single XL or L motor, or twin S cans like suggested. Heck, S cans are so cheap its even tempting for me.

I have a 9XL on 3S with 24/65 gearing....

This was for semi serious fun but don't want to blow 70-100 on an extra motor setup (an extra 7L) is not going to make much diffence - I would be going from 1800KV to 3100KV though so would expect 40+MPH speed? Am i close?

Arct1k, were are you at on this project. I am wondering Curiously...

[Arct1k]

Well I now have a second motor - I'm just waiting for mike to get the mugen motor mount in stock and then i'll place an order for the pinion and I'm done.

[Hickoryhead]

I guess I will wait. grudgingly. LOL

[Arct1k]

Don't look at me - just need the mugen mount!

[Hickoryhead]

Still waiting???

[Arct1k]

Doh... I forgot to order the extra pinion... I'll order it tonight...

It will have to wait a little bit as I blew up two mm's...

Back with CC for service... Will set it up when they gets back... promise!
