Will Try:
4s Hyperion G3 35C 1100mah Lipo geared much lower of course.
Will also try:
Tekin 1900 KV motor in my Losi 8ight
A note on cheat mode. I've only noticed a slight gain in top speed and a barely noticeable loss in torque when using cheat mode verses smart sense and 20 degrees of sensorless advance. However, motor temps run about 20 degrees warmer using cheat mode and 20 degrees of dynamic timing advance. I like how you can set cheat mode to activate at within an rpm range. However, I believe Novak motors are preset to 30 degrees of sensor advance, which means i can only set 15-20 degrees of dynamic advance in the MMPro to get 30 to 45 or 50 degrees of total timing advance.
Check out my custom converted 8ight:
Sub 7lb, lowest CG of any 1/8 buggy
It has:
Mamba Max Pro
Flightpower 30C 3200mah 4S
Axi 2826/10 920kv with fan, geared 14/38 using Mod 1 Gears.
It's rolling on a set of Slash Tires using 14mm hub adapters.
I ran it once today on 4S and it did great. Super cool temps. Tomorrow, out with the flightpower Pack and in with a Turnigy 5S 30C 3000mah pack.
Tranny is a XL-5 upgraded with the steel input gear and the Delrin Idler Gear. I'm sure it's not gonna last long and will be upgraded to the VXL Tranny when it goes.
Top Speed with the 5S is about 35mph. This combined with the smaller tires is what makes this setup work. Stock Drive Shafts are being used.
Smaller Tires take the place of a loose slipper and not put so much stress on the drive train.
I'm gonna play around with this for a few days, then install a Medusa 36-60-1500kv motor and gear up. That's probably when my tranny is gonna go bye bye. LOL
One of many like this to come into the RC drag racing scene:
Lockmann Funny Car
MMPro ESC
Tekin Redline Sensored Motor
Geared 15/87
2S Hyperion 5350mAH Lipo (cells from the reconfigured 5S pack I used in my 90mph Rustler)
