I didn't get an email either, so I was about to ask the same thing. I only had a 7T and a MM. But I didn't know where I was in the "line".:lol:

BigD74 05-05-2008 09:02 AM

So any idea on time frame yet? Its killing me waiting to get this thing running.

cartronicshn 05-05-2008 06:25 PM

what is the minimum number of continuous amps needed to keep a 7t happy? im trying to figure out batteries.

I would recommend a 1500 2 cell 15C minimum, and 2100 3 cell 15C min. (assuming lipo)

You should be coming up tomorrow. I have hired some help for 5 hours to get the rest out.

Got shipped out in today's mail. I missed the Saturday cutoff.



If all goes well every backorder should be taken care of by tomorrow evening. School is just taking a lot more of my time that I had planned for right now, it is like I have two full time jobs :lol:

Kicking around preordering a 7t, but am wondering if you have any plans to do a 10t run? The wheelspeed in the 7t looks awesome, but I have a hard time imagining that I'll need all that in a crawler. I'd rather preserve the run time. Would I see much difference? As always, thanks for taking the time to answer our zillions of questions. BTW, got my lipo in the mail today, and it looks like it'll suit my needs great. Thanks!

JohnRobHolmes 05-05-2008 09:21 PM

I am getting quotes from the factory for some 10t armatures, just waiting to hear back. If you don't want so much wheelspeed, just use lower voltage or gear down if possible. I can guarantee that you will find a use for the wheelspeed when you have it though.

Mortimer Snerd 05-05-2008 09:44 PM

I'm sure. :lol: I don't really want to buy new batteries, as I've got a fair amount of $$$ invested, and I really like the speed. Can't gear down much lower. I'm running Maxx driveshafts. I might try to shave them down a little, but I'm concerned about weakening them. How much faster is the 7t?

JohnRobHolmes 05-05-2008 09:49 PM

It is about 2300kv I think, maybe 2200 unloaded. It should be on my website. A bit more than twice the speed of a 55t.

Mortimer Snerd 05-05-2008 10:12 PM

Sorry, I seem to have my noob brain on. If I remember correctly the 10t is 1800kv? It'd be a little slower than the 7t, a little better run time, and still about 10,000x times more parts breaking torque than a 55t?

JohnRobHolmes 05-05-2008 10:17 PM

Yep, correct on all accounts.

Mortimer Snerd 05-05-2008 10:22 PM

Thanks. I think I'll hold out for your next run of 10t pullers. I don't want to give up too much run time....Of course, then I'll be thinking "gee, if only it were a little faster" :roll: Besides, I'm really curious to see what your new 10t will look like. Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. Again.

JohnRobHolmes 05-05-2008 10:24 PM

Get ready for a wait. It could be months before I can get the factory to make armatures, and then you will have to buy a can too. The redesign is taking even longer, and so far multiple designs have fallen through for factory or production reasons.

Mortimer Snerd 05-05-2008 10:27 PM

I'm assuming you're talking about a long wait for the current 10t cobalts. Any alternate suggestions, given what I'm looking for?

JohnRobHolmes 05-05-2008 10:29 PM

You could get a 25t 540 Handwound. It would load down a bit more than the Cobalt Puller so it wouldn't spin quite as fast under load. I could also get a 30t wound up if that was too fast for you.

Mortimer Snerd 05-05-2008 10:32 PM

Cool, I'll give it some thought. I've been eyeballing those. Thanks!

bigflex 05-06-2008 08:06 AM

so is the time frame on the 7t pullers still about 2 weeks out for the next batch?

Best guess, yes. I will put more up for sale here in the next few days since the motors are on the way already.

toytech93 05-06-2008 10:08 AM

hey JRH, I was curious if a 10T puller could be ran on a Novak crawler ESC ??? The rooster crawler has a 27T limit. If it can't, Whats another ESC that has a drag brake at neutral ??

JohnRobHolmes 05-06-2008 10:15 AM

It would work fine on the Novak RC.

Prophecy 05-06-2008 02:55 PM

Hey John, thanks for the email letting me know my motor was on its way! I cant wait, ive been waiting to finish my super and once the power plant is here its crawlin time!!

JohnRobHolmes 05-06-2008 03:34 PM

All have been shipped, including internationals. Thanks for being so patient guys! Another round of motors is on the way.

toytech93 05-06-2008 09:35 PM

Well, I'm having a hard time deciding what to do with my ax10. I run a rooster crawler esc with a integy 55T on a 7 cell nimh. I want both more torque and wheel speed. Is it possible ??? I wanted a 7T puller but I don't think the crawler esc can handle it . I thought about 3s lipo with the 55T ,but esc can't handle that either. Should I change ESC and ran 3s lipo with 55T ? OR I thought about trying a handwound 45T with 2s lipo on the rooster crawler esc ??? What would my Best option be ? Funds are somewhat limited..... Finding something to fit my budget and my needs is proving to tougher than I thought .... Please HELP !

JohnRobHolmes 05-06-2008 09:53 PM

The Rooster crawler ESC would do fine with a puller.

I am a big fan of 3 and 4s lipo, but you could run a 35t to 20t handwound on 2s lipo to get your speed up. Plenty of options really, and none of them are bad.

ffactory666 05-07-2008 01:27 AM

Got my Paypal shipping confirmation , thanks John.

Well, thats Great. How do I preorder a 7T ? Your website won't allow it . Just let me know, paypal can be sent ASAP..... manoli427@yahoo.com

I can't wait to start braking drive shaft. LOL

JohnRobHolmes 05-07-2008 08:31 AM

You will have to wait until they are on the site toytech, I will probably add them on friday.

Speed Demon 05-08-2008 08:23 AM

John,

Sorry, I've read the entire thread and I am confused because my mind keep saying "get it! get it! get!".

So, may I know if 10T is already out or in pre-order? If pre-order, how long?

How about 7T? Also on pre-orders?

I am international and I have MM and 3S 20C Li-po. Safe??:lol:

7t pullers are about 2 weeks out. The 10t pullers are in the works but its only for the armatures, no time on them yet!"thumbsup"

Oze30 05-08-2008 01:31 PM

heya,

I don;t suppose you have a 4m 48dp pinion do you?

JohnRobHolmes 05-08-2008 02:08 PM

I don't have any 4mm pinions.

BILLYGOAT 05-08-2008 02:21 PM

Presale Cobalt 7t
 
Did I Miss Them Or Does You Site Need Update.

JohnRobHolmes 05-08-2008 02:33 PM

Just put 35 on the site, should be ready to go in two weeks.

BILLYGOAT 05-08-2008 02:45 PM

Got In On One Thanks. What Should I Order To Control It . Mm Or Sidewinder Or Fxr? Thanks

TxCruzr 05-08-2008 09:12 PM

I got my 7t in today and let me just say....big mistake :lol: I love it :shock:
I'm going to have to go lipo as I am having to ziptie my big 6 cell pack on it right now but it runs great. TONS of wheel speed and great response.
Well worth it John, thanks "thumbsup"

Oh yeah, popping wheelies and doing burnouts around the apartment makes your roommates think you're on crack:-D

bigflex 05-08-2008 09:20 PM

got it paid for! I can't wait to get this in my rock racer. Thanks John."thumbsup"

I also ordered a hand wound 35t for the comp rig.

toytech93 05-08-2008 09:48 PM

Hey JRH , I just preorder my puller. I can't wait to test it out ! I'm sure its going to be just as great as everyone says it is. Whats a good gearing for a ax10 ? Stock gearing is 14/87

I'm running the same thing but using a 12t pinion that was laying around. It's just right. 14 should work great for you. Going to also depend on how many cells you are running. Tested mine on 6cell sub-c's

volumeone 05-08-2008 10:29 PM

Just received mine in the mail today..... Ye Ha
