I have an RC18T, but mine came stock with a 370. I'm running a 2 cell lipo right now. Everything else-with the exception of the a-arms, shock towers, and bumper, and steering link-are stock. I wanted to know what would be a good motor to use to attain a more calm 30 mph? I plan on making the truck more suited to mixtures of concrete and grassy terrain, so I want some extra torque and power, with some speed to boot.
Your stock motor is a 540? My stock is a 370, meaning it only goes 15 mph, but since I'm only interested in driving it around for fun in the neighborhood, I'm going to up it to 30 mph, I think.
i have a rc monster truck and wanted to know how can i make it 4x4? if any 1 can tell me i would apreciate it. i herd that a 27T motor will make rc goes fast but will it fit on all rc cars? plz some one mail me if you know
I've been thinking along those lines, but with the 7700kv Mamba Max and 3S lipo. The numbers are insane, theoretically could hit 100 mph. Check out my other vid with a 10T brushed Trinity D6 540 motor. It's quite a bit faster. That motor has a kv of about 5800, though it's brushed, at 11.1V, it absolutely screams. But there is potential for more speed with a Max, although controlling the truck and not blowing out the gears is another story...
Thanks, I know it's long, I could cut it down to a minute and you'd get the idea. I drove around in the dirt for a while but got too many rocks stuck in the spur gear and eventually just ruined it. I couldn't gain any traction in the dirt, it just spun out, and kicked up a lot dirt and rocks.
how'd you manage to stick a 540 in an 18t? well however you did it, great job and just imagine if you put in a full size(1/10th scale) mamba system in your car. it would fly compared to pretty much any mini there is
what song? anyway cool rc18t
