Speed?? I am wanting to get a good bit of speed out of my recently aquired Cliffy. I am gonna be running 1 3s 1300 35c lipo in it. I am trying for a Formula Offroad truck on a budget. Thinking of a Sidewinder esc but am unsure on some motors for the best wheel speed in a brushed package. I am also thinking a carbon fiber chassis and to lighten as much as possable."thumbsup" |
How about 2 of the $40 Hobby Wing systems if there are no brushed motors? |
Just put a set of banebot 395 motors in my boys cliffy "thumbsup",It has a evx 14.4 speedo and running 2 2s 1550 lipos, I think it will have too much speed when i get the the axles rebuilt, Didnt even have a chance to open her up. Put it down nailed the throttle and that thing took off in a big ass wheelie,then fliped over backwards,then back on its wheels before i could even get off the gas :lmao:. Needless to say axles are molested. :twisted: Anybody have any good gears laying around?:mrgreen: |
axles I have a complete cliff climber, un driven If I were to FoFF it I would run 2 8900 castle setups with a Y connector, run them both back to a Y for power of the 3s and stand clear!!!!! If no one buys my cliffy, thats what Im doing to it, I better film it cos I dont think I'll get many runs out of it |
Man, FOFF Might be asking too much of these axles. If you wanna stay brushed, I'd try the banebot motors, bigger pinions (if they exist) and 4s. Probably an vex like trx has. Metal gears for sure. I just dumped 75 bucks on them for my 6x6. I'm sure there's plenty of high kv brushless motors that'd fit in there but you'll have to get the gearing right. |
I have a cliffy and was looking at the Banebot motors. Does anyone have the stats on the stock motors on the cliffy? Also which banebot motor is a direct bolt on? I see an RS380 RS390 & RS395 Thanks Scott |
I use to own a Cliff Climber (3rd pic in gallery) and had a set of HH Cobalt motors. Needless to say it was fast. I was doing some speed runs up and down my street when I melted the housings so bad the motors almost dropped out. Just be careful |

With a lower turn motor, 3cell 35c should go off. Maybe 18.5 turn? I run 22T and thats mad |
Is it even possible to get these axles to hold up to high speed thrashing? seems tough to make these last, mine killed the rear end on almost the first trigger pull with the banebots... |
