No prob, I have plenty of experience with high speed r/c. Suspension setup is very important for speed runs. So is tire choice. Some "throttle modulation" is important.

All that said, my 10th scale speed car was setup well enough that I could open it up fully from a stand still and it would track perfectly straight and leave 3-4ft foam tire burnout marks. I only had room to get it to 74mph before having to get on the brakes...

Do you have any pics of your build lincpimp? I have the electronics (1521 and mmm) just looking for a truck to put them in for bashing.. I have been looking for a muggy but just haven't pull the trigger.. Will a revo hold up with the hybrid diffs?

Ive owned a few VXL esc's. Never had throttle lag.

I originally bought the motor to go in my lst. I have the al diff cups and tin coated gears in that truck, so the drivetrain is about as strong as they come. I think the revo drivetrain will survive with the hybid diffs. I have had great success with the new emaxx drivetrain and the plett maxx on 4s. It is not as powerful but still gives everything a workout. I will not bash this revo very hard, just plan to do some speed runs with it. I will most likely swap the motor into the lst and put the hacker c50 11xl in the revo. Still going to run it on 6s though... I am sure the hacker will easily get the revo past 70mph, but the 1521 looks more impressive.

as long as you don"t try any any backflips from a stopped position I think you will be ok, WOT from a roll

magman · 10.23.2008, 08:27 PM

Wow linc...a vid of the speed run is a must!

BL_RV0 · 10.23.2008, 09:26 PM

Man this will be nuts!

Well, I got some work sone on the old nitro revo that I will be using, stripped it almost all the way down in prep for some serious cleaning. I hate to say this, but I did not clean this truck when I got it used, just slapped the tekno kit in and beat the snot out of it...

So it is a bit nasty, at least two owners of crud and grime... All the plastic will get a good soak and scrub, and i will go thru all of the bearings. May take a few days so sit tight!

Sorry pimp, but i got to show this to you, I did aneagletree on my SRT w/VXL on 3s and 2s and here is the wattage graph on it. as you can see it nearlt pulled 1150 watts in a truck less than half the size of the Emaxx/E-revo.

Do you have any average numbers for the run?

I was only trying to say that a 1521 will be able to handle higher gearing for longer than the vtwin setup will. I know the vxl motor is decent, but is designed for a 10th scale 2wd truck. Plus it will get hot with alot of load, no way to get around its efficientcy. The Neu motor design is superior to a feigao. I am sure that a 1506 of similar spec will outperform the vxl motor.

BL_RV0 · 11.02.2008, 05:57 PM

True.

Hey linc,

I got my monye on you buddy. I was able to extract 4760 watts out of my 1521/1Y when I used 10S with it. I would love to see 2 VXL do that.

That Revo is going to need some work to reliably handle that power. I'd convert to 8mm centers and wheel shafts with the Truggy diffs and the Tekno RC 8mm shaft/17mm hex conversion. The LST2/Muggy will handle the power better, but this is sure a good way to shut down the V-Twin users. My 1515 beat my Revo into the ground (which is why I sold it and bought a Muggy, far superior drivetrain).
