I'm out of court. off for the rest of the weekend. Wish we could find somwhere fun thats covered between here and laffy.

 

[flm_savage]

they have that boat launch in the breaux bridge/whiskey bay area. i bet they have rocks there. i'm not gonna drive to find out.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

haha, u right. it pisses me off. every time everyone has running units, and I'm off work, weather is nasty.

 

[flm_savage]

btw, this rig will stand straight up if you go wot from 1/2 throttle in second gear.


we need to have a tractor pull at the next gtg.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

that could be fun. i wonder how the stock gearing would stand up to a velenion BL setup.

 

[flm_savage]

what rig do you have with a velineon in it? (slash)

my tranny will hold up, i think the shafts or diff gears would blow first.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

right now, i got the motor just sitting on the table. the ESC is in my CC-01 pushing the 55t motor.

 

[flm_savage]

get a small pinion and put the motor in the cc-01

 

[alpinehyperlite]

i can pull wheelies on sandy concrete with the 55t motor on 3s. lol. its the only thing ill run now is big batteries.

 

[flm_savage]

speaking of batteries, i still don't know the runtime of my 6S setup. its got 20 minutes on it now. not sure where my voltage is.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

i ran a 4000mah 3s with the 55t motor for over an hour, and was showing no signs of slowing.

 

[flm_savage]

mine is equivalent to a 2500 3S setup. That puller is a beast but i am geared REALLY low so i am sure my current draw isn't that big.


i need to run it and find out

 

[abadk9420]

Well then run it already, LOL!!!!!!!

 

[hamz9561]

Drive it like you stole it! (And hope that alpine isn't out looking for you!)

 

[flm_savage]

ran it for 20 minutes today. voltage is at 23.097V

i love high voltage and low gears

 

[flm_savage]

truss made it in today!!

truss made it in today!!

pics!!!

 

[flm_savage]

i have to grab some longer rear lowers to get my pinion angle back where i want it since the truss kicked it up a little. Here is the latest video. I grabbed it late last night so don't expect much. it does give you an idea on how it runs.
THIS IS JUST 2ND GEAR. It was too dark when i started crawling to video it


*video uploading

 

[alpinehyperlite]

we will get plenty of pics this sat.

 

[flm_savage]

so sat morning it is? we should do it early.
