The brushless serpent 1/8th onroad project!

[teamtekin]

The Emaxx in the video actually had an R1pro, 4slipo, stock gearing and a 2kv 36mm x 54mm motor, 6pole, 18 wind (slot), 2 turn. A proto we are working on for 1/8 scale.

The R1mt will be a beafed version to handle 30 min mains or continuous running. Honestly the R1pro looked like it was going to handle it, without a heat sink. We blew up the motor before the speedo got close to thermal. Obviously the motor design is not done yet... Might have just had a flaw in this motor. Honestly it looked like overkill although I realize that to monster guys that word does not exist. More turns would make it easier on everything in the long run. It was just a starting point and we always overshoot in the beginning.
