Thanks for letting me check this out Saturday Jake. Was good hanging out with you again "thumbsup"

PS: Where is your Wraith build thread?!?!

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Pure class right there "thumbsup"

You are a lucky guy having practice rocks so close to home. I'd get a lot more practice in without a 30+ minute drive to my nearest rocks...

This rig is looking great so far Jake, I'm looking forward to seeing it with the skins on.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Florida doesn't push many rocks out of the ground, yeah?


3.5 lbs with normal electronics? Are you sure you need lighter motors, its gonna drop another 5 or 6 ounces off! I'll still make em for you anyway :D Magnets will be done soon on option 2, and option 1 will be ready when the magnets are here.


Pretty dang cool rig. Congrats on... smoking your BEC at the last comp :mrgreen:

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Sensored outrunners?

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Very nice rig there sir"thumbsup" Looking forward to seeing it sometime soon. Skins look killer too!

Later,
Farmer

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

not sure what they are going to be, but I think I'll wait to pull the trigger on my next set of motors until after I find out. . . .

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

That is one option. The smallest is 3 ounces, although I could make it smaller.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Any sneek peek pictures?:shock:

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Not yet, still waiting on some parts.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Rig is looking good Jake! Are you going to have it at PCC next month? I would like to hand molest it perhaps.

My goal is 3.5 also. I am sitting a hair above 4 right now. I have been talking to holmes about some light weight motors and sounds like you might be in on the secret also




Lots of people don't run knuckle weight. In fact, some think it's not the best idea. Just look at Nabil's thread. I have never run knuckle weight. Right now, I am running a 4.1lb truck with no additional weight and it works really well

Looks like you need some new batteries:ror:. We have the Elite 600's in stock. Get em while they last"thumbsup"

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Site says out of stock?

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

No it doesnt....

Gotcha! "thumbsup"
I was looking at the lipo/a123 packs & accys menu... DOH!
Thanks!

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

3oz for per motor is light :shock:, but if it is a sensored outrunner how much weight will be added back with the extra motor leads, sensor wires, and the added size of two sensored ESC's? Also what kind of gaurds would you need to run to keep the outrunners protected on a MOA? Thanks.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Great build, Jake "thumbsup" Like the new skinz.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

I'm sure the motor wires could be tiny. Esc, not so much. Lol. And if they are like the normal outrunners, they'd easily fit in a BWD motor sav'r & still spin free.

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Can we see a shot of the snipped losi's

thanks

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

3oz is including motor wires. The ESC weight is a concern right now, but we won't know if a new ESC design is worth chasing until we learn if the motor design is good enough anyway! I can always have some modded mamba max pros made in a pinch that are just bare boards with no wires or case or heatsink. That would certainly be light and small enough to work.

And there is always option two...

Re: Del Monte's Secret Agent build
 

Would you ever offer dual ESC packages already smushed into a small package and soldered up?

And what is option two?
