Direct Drive to Diff E Revo Build

Very Nice!!!!

Traxxas really needs to come out with a wheely bar for the revo, something like the setup for the maxx trucks. Looks like your custom wind works very well. Good luck with the diffs, maybe somebody makes a really heavy duty bearing?

Nice display of raw power. Congratulation on your outrunner setup (especialy for custom winding your 4130). It would be interesting to log some data with an eagletree: with the rpm sensor you could immediately tell what kv your custom wound motor now has. You really should get one

I wonder what would happen at startup with a jazz 55-10-32 or a MGM 9032 on 10s1p A123 with your factory wound 4130/20 (305kv). Determining the right KV of your outrunner in combination with the right voltage to eliminate cogging at startup with the right esc seems to be the most challenging/interesting part. Your setup seems to do well with a very small hicup when starting up from a near stand still.

BTW: i had the same bearing problems (spiral cut pinion/diff) with my Neu 1512/2Y on 10s1p A123 in my buggy. I changed the bearing quite often. I thought it was due to the fact that the buggy already was 10 years old when i converted it to brushless.

Aaah, so I'm not the only one. LOL

I've never tried a Jazz ESC, they look really good though. The MGM is said to work well with outrunners.

Yes it is an interesting challenge. Now for the diff challenge.
