I'm wondering whether the motor and planetary gearbox are indeed smaller than a small outrunner...

hairba11 · 02-15-2009, 07:36 AM

I'd drop to a mamba 4200, or a parkflyer 3200 or so, the 8k will not have the starting torque.

unless that is an 8.0 wind, not an 8.0kv

Stormin2u · 02-15-2009, 07:46 AM

Good stuff my expectations are really high and keep etting higher keep up the good work.

a1racer · 02-18-2009, 03:13 PM

this thing is turning out slick you deff have skill man. i hope the trans holds up well. it looks stout but you never know.

I have looked at others and did notice what you said but i like to see for myself. this truck will be pretty light so it just might work

Some advise on the brushless. 8000kv will probably shred that planetary? You never know.
Fiago makes a planetary just for high power brushless motors.

Way to go, using a small brushless. Saves alot of room.

I've tested it on the table and so far so good. if it blows no big deal i'll try something else. that's what experimenting is for

No it's an 8.0Kv and i know i'll be on the short side on torque but i guesstimated the planetary to be over 150:1 so i'll need the rpm. if it doesn't work i'll try something else.

Thanks a bunch. i'll definatly keep everyone posted in the outsome of the tranny. if it wirks it'll be the ticket for the most compact drivetrain.

I'd love to buy a body set but I'm afraid I'd be a weekly customer.....HA

Goose · 02-18-2009, 11:10 PM

That is one slick rig like the way you geared it down ingenious sir

REDDEATH · 02-19-2009, 03:15 AM

GETTIN' TO BE AN AWESOME BUILD

9fingerkustomz · 02-19-2009, 10:47 AM

Fantastic work, looking forward to following and seeing the finished results!

Keep up the great work!

Bin 'jammin' · 03-02-2009, 10:14 AM

Fasinated to see this complete and running, have you hooked up the motor tans combo in anything to see how it runs?

Thanks guys! Sorry I don't have any progress to report. I put it on hold for a bit to get some of my honeydo list done

Yes i did. it seems to spin real good but the 8kv motor makes the planetary scream! It has no lubrication in it now so once i pack it with grease it should be ok. It looks super slow at the output so hopefully the final drive isn't to slow. I'm hoping to get the chassis together for a test run this week some time.

dmercier82 · 03-04-2009, 06:03 PM

this is just amazing!!! im a perfectionist, but this build is just insane! i love it

gatesr120 · 03-07-2009, 05:37 PM

i was wondering if you could tell me what type pf glue or adhesive your using to keep the panels together because i plan on making a body like that but nowhere near as nice as yours!

stone_64 · 04-15-2009, 12:02 PM

dude, you are the man. this is the most unreal build i seen yet!

SoCalMike · 04-16-2009, 09:25 AM

Wow

j182j · 04-30-2009, 07:38 PM

What did you make you leaf springs out of? The whole thing is really nice.

ellectronico · 05-03-2009, 10:01 PM

Great work! i would love to see if you have any updates!

landy-ross · 05-05-2009, 06:08 PM

Absolutely mind blowing!

I'd Love you to make me a D90 body

Metal Masher · 05-06-2009, 09:26 PM
