Anyone using a B&B axel snapper?

swaugh · 12-30-2006, 07:08 PM

I've got a set. They are extremely slow. However, they are smooth and powerful. I would equate them to a 95 turn (quessing). The 5 pole makes them smooth. Even at very little throttle, they will pull. But, they do need alot of battery power. I am building a Pimp Cane with them on it and going to run 8 sub c's. Having a extra large can makes them near impossible to use on a stick chassis or anything with links that are not very wide apart. Hope this helps.

I have the same motors, different manufacturer.

They are very slow. On 12-14 cells they get a little peppy. Too slow for my tastes on 6 cells, but some people like it.

Have any of you had any problems with one. I just installed mine and it seems to stall very easily, and should be giving much more power. I'm running six cells, should I be using more?

I would run 8 cells at the minimun w/ them.

I have one in a TLT. It is slow but very smooth with great throttle control. I'm running 6 cells too.

I've seen them run on clods, and their names are right. They were ran on 14.4(2 7 cells) The carnage was nasty. They are extremely torquey.

as everyone else said its better to run more than 6 cells,
