Motor change - 05.06.2013, 10:26 AM

I took the extended GTP beast out for a test and tune session, working to dial in the steering and handling at high speeds as well as the aero principles of the XO-1 body and came to realization that I might be over geared for the Castle /Torx 2200. I initially had it geared at 24/51 and after about 10 minutes of running, I got the single red LED on the controller and no further movement. Batteries were warm, motor was less than warm but the fan was running. Re-geared to 20/51 on the same motor and pretty much got the same result after a few more runs, so I decided to swap out the Torx 2200 for the 1717 in the Mayhem 2.0. Still geared at 20/51...I hope to get better runs out of this combo. Here is a pic of the beast with the new motor.
