fireball motors

Alot of my friends have the integy 55t they like it I had the venom fire ball abt a week and I changed my whole set up to a novac 55t and rooster integy and novac"thumbsup"
 
I have the 60T in my Creeper and love it on 6 Nimh cells.
12t pinion and I get a real low crawl speed and wads of torque.
I am not a fan of wheel speed for crawlers. Walking pace is plenty quick enough for me.

I have a fwe low wind motors that I used to run in my boats befor I went BL
 
55T Tekin with 11t pinion on 3s.
Crawls great and has just enough to get out of bad situations.

I did a side by side test of a Fireball 55T and a Integy 55T (V10) motor. The Integy had way more torque than the Fireball.
 
I have in a couple Venom 50T motors in my Axial and a Creeper and so far everything is good. If you need an inexpensive motor or want to pick up a couple different turn motors to see which you like better these are great.
 
well since on a budget i gone a head and bought the 55t venom... and see what it can do. on a stock creeper pinion i think its 14t right? dont remember
 
know for some strange reason when i put down 55t integy in towers site i get a 55t lathe motor but when i type in integy 55t i get all sort of others 55 v10 v11 so many choices and what the hell a lathe motor for a crawler?:mrgreen:

well i guess if it burns it burns learn from your mistakes.... and what was that saying ummm "you get what you pay for" guess i will be selling more stuff on ebay to get that tekin combo

i agree i run a 55t and 35t integy motors with no problems and have toasted 3 fireballs:shock: that the integys dont have any trouble with

I am not being smart but what sort of test did you do.
I am all happy if it was and eyeball on the rocks type of test or was it on a dyno
I do a lot of eyeball and ear testing with my boats since the GPS is now blowing bubbles, so I am all for "by eye" measuring.

I am keen to follow this as I have the 60T Fireball and I like it but if the Integy comes up with more torque then that will be an option for me and I'll shoot the Venom motor over to my daughters buggy that is too quick for here.

Let us know please. "thumbsup"
 
I had a fireball, then a tekin and now an integy......Tekin was by far my fav. but the integy is pretty good....fireball didnt last long but was super cheap so no complaints.

My test was on the rocks. In the same truck, with the same gears. I ran the Fireball first, and thought I might have to change the pinion to get more torque. It was that weak. Didnt change the pinion, I put the integy in the truck, and still running it a year later. The fireball felt like a sponge on the throttle trigger. The integy, a way harder sponge. LOL.
