3 slot vs 5 slot Hey everyone Made the mistake of ordering the Reedy Radon 3 slot 17 turn motor, opposed to the 5 slot 17 turn. Im curious to know what the main difference is, and how it will effect my rigs crawling ability overall. Thanks in Advance -SuperNewb |
Re: 3 slot vs 5 slot I run a 5 slot 17T motor in my TF2. The 5 slot motor are smoother than a 3 slot which is good for crawling and the fewer turns will give you the wheel speed you might need to bump over an obstacle. To be honest, I don’t think you’d really notice much difference between your 5 slot Reedy and say a 3 slot 35T motor. |
Re: 3 slot vs 5 slot The 17t 3 slot is much faster. Personally I would return it and request the 5 slot. Basicaly 5slot is smoother with less torque. Lower initial start speeds on the 5slot as well. . These machine wound motors might not be that dramatic of a change though. The turn number vs rpm*volt is also different. As stated a 17t 5slot might be comparable in speed to a 35t 3slot motor. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
Re: 3 slot vs 5 slot Thanks alot, gives me a bit to think about. My Gen8 has a good motor in it currently, but the start up is a little jumpy sometimes. I just want a smoother start up really. |
Re: 3 slot vs 5 slot I missed the fact that he ordered a 3 slot 17T motor. ☺️ I agree, to fast. Sorry for the confusion. |
Re: 3 slot vs 5 slot yeah i have an old associated 3 slot 19T in my "drifter" TC3 and it RIPS on 2S. |
