Tamiya Gravel Hound @ +90Km/h Brushless

[TheAL3xGR]

Nice! It really looks like 90kmh.

Could you tell me what tires do you have please?

[Gravelracer]

@TheAL3xGR

The wheels are from carson-rc with a conversion kit from 1/10 to 1/8

[Mzege]

put some big fat monster truck tyres and rims on that it will look like a beast

[2testtest2]

Nice! I've got the same car, and I would really like to do something like this. which parts are you using and how much are they?

[Gravelracer]

@2testtest2

The wheels are from carson-rc, the motor and speed controller from GM-Racing (Graupner) together about 200euros.

[VinyGambini]

put a radar gun in front of the camera so we can see the real speed. nice car hope the water didnt break any electrics

Try Using a 2 or 3s lipo pack in it an it will be even quicker

[Gravelracer]

I know, but for the moment i havn't got any time to ride with it and my current project is building one of my boats also to brushless( with the same engine as this car)

maybey next year I will switch to lipo :)

[RENEGADEMPBA14]

Nice What boat are you running as i am part of the model powerboat association and am a national champion

[Gravelracer]

wow, i am running a Graupner Sea Commander. This boat came prebuild from the factory and was fun running the past year but i wanted something faster so now i am building it myself all over again. see my website for more info

[RENEGADEMPBA14]

Very Nice what cells are you using in it?

[Gravelracer]

Intellect 4600mAh 6 Cells with 3.5G connectors

Hi where did you get those wheels? From what site or what car are these

[Gravelracer]

Those are Carson wheels from the website crason rc

[RadioControlNewbie]

How does the car hold up with the brushless motor? Do you do a lot of jumping? No slipper is available so I was curious if the car has problems with brushless power and a lot of offroad jumping

[Gravelracer]

It doesn't holp up very well, the brushless power is really to strong for this car, even on-road. I had to chance every moving part after 2 months of intense use.... But it is very nice to drive :p

[asterilix]

pretty nice looking i just got one 2 years ago. its amazing how much it costs to fix it when brake it .would u recamend the brush less motor?

[Gravelracer]

it's very nice to drive with a brushless motor but you must know that it brakes much easlier at those high speeds

[acglover89]

wat other mods have you done to it. coz its really quiet!

[Gravelracer]

Trust me, its not that quiet...

I just changed the motor and controller, and placed ball-bearings. That's all

[Hugy9]

nice car i want to know what sice of wheels you put on the df-02 and what kind of motor thnx 5star rated

[360XXXKNEX]

[Gravelracer]

[monboy10]

[monboy10]

[Gravelracer]

[monboy10]

the things that the wheel ataches to and i took the wheels of mine and the hexes are 12mm

[monboy10]

what knid of tires are those and what brushless systm did you use and how much did it cost? i am looking into upgrading my gravel hound

[Gravelracer]

These are Carson tires: it's a conversion kit from normal tires to street tires 1:10 to 1:8(really good) The brushless system is from GM the controller: GM Genius Sport 80R and the motor: GM DR.Speed 9T Delta. More information from these items you can find on the graupner website.
