Question How fast are 1/10 4wd race buggies? - 12.18.2007, 08:49 PM

I was just using BrianG's speed calculator for my Academy SB V2 Pro. I knew the car was fast (3S lipo,MM 5700KV) but according to the calculator it's doing 73mph geared as slow as I can go. Top end geared up is over 110mph. Not that I think I would ever try to get past 100...

So now my thinking is that I need a smaller KV motor. I'd like to KV to the area of MPH I want, as opposed to RPM of the motor by the voltage I run.

Question is, how fast (mph) do 1/10 4wd electric buggies get on the longer straights they run? I'm talking INFMAR, ROAR type stuff.


If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
