looks wicked. i dont think the pede trans is gonna do it though, you should try a txt or emaxx tranny, other than that cant wait to see more |

Awsome build! For a rig that big I think you should go with a Hyperion z3025-08 and a mamba max. These are supposed to put out something like 2 horse power. I would suggest running something like a txt tranny or twin force tranny to put the power to the axles. That should give you the power to smoke your big tires like the 496 going in your 1:1 rig. |

yeah the pede is small, and kinda week even in a 2.2, the losi xxx or b/t trannies are damn near bullet proof the way there built, but still shouldnt go on something this big. the emaxx, txt, or twinforce tranny would be your best bet. then you can either run twin brushed motors or go brushless and be sure you werent going to break anything. i would suggest the combo said earlier. cant wait to see more. |

Lol he didn't say you weren't allowed to come... Were going 8/25-8/27ish Can I get some support for that big brushless setup? I'll buy it right now if you guys think it will work great... Don't want to spend $200 and not be happy lol. |

Respect the Hyperion.. wait while your at it, fear the Hyperion z3025. I'd be more worried about the tranny than the motor. A crappy little video | |

I talked to a friend of mine who is big into brushless and he thinks the Novak HV 6.5 would work better??? I have no idea... Which is better? So right now it's either the Novak HV-Maxx 6.5 Brushless Motor System -or- The Hyperion with the mamba max Last edited by willyswanter; 06-15-2007 at 05:56 PM. |

The HV maxx is for speed and not crawling. I'd stick with the hyperion.
