2.2pro rig testing my br-minis

[tapped-out]

I was testing my BR minis to find the average heat they run at my with current setup.
Average temp was 130 degrees towards the end of each battery pack. I ran 4 battery packs total 50 minute drive time.(Comp/bashing) Man these ESC'S have some great power on tap.
I'm going to try some 12 gauge motor wire to see if I can drop the running temp.
Personally I don't think 130* is to hot.

Niice. Is there some sort of cement holding those rocks in place?

Yes... This isn't a comp spot for us, just a spot 0n my way home from work. I've always wanted to stop @ it's a natural wash good enough for some comp practice.

When I watched the video and say footage like your picture all I could think of is there has to be some sort of cement to secure it.

Gotta love those "on the way" spots...

Looks like she's running good

I wish I had a spot half as good on my way home.

Saw somewhere that a motor is good upto 160 deg.

Motors are fine I'm pulling temps from ESC's... the br-minis per Holmes hobbies site should be fine under 180*.

That's awesome! Rig looks planted, when its not flying thru the air..

They just sprayed the local dam in the fall, with crete like that. Great place to break in new tires or wear out old ones. Grips like mad!

THANKS.. I was bashing the rig pretty hard to work/heat up the HH br minis.
Going to stop by today w/my 2.2s rig to see hot the sidewinder sport esc gets.

I had a chance to run my 5th dimension sucker punch 2.2s rig yesterday. (Man my pro rig made easy work of these gates) I got through 2 battery packs (30min) before I busted the stock trans output.(end of video) I wanted to see how hot the CC Sidewinders sport esc would get.. 95° was the max temp it's a lot cooler than my br-minis @ 130° (2.2pro rig). The Sidewinder esc power wise are REALLY lacking the on tap power that the HH br-minis provides.
I was going to swap the wires on the br's to 12gauge wires to reduce heat but it's just way to large, I'll stick with my 18gauge wire & 130°. I need a HH br-mini for my S-rig..
