Rustler XL-5 speed runs on 8 cell

[cattrucking]

u know its only made for 7 cell rite

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

ABOUT 40?? i wouldnt go that far! my vxl stock did that! haha but hey its fast! nice video!! and yea the rustler vxl and xl5 have same speed variations. i clocked mine at 40.01 mph VXL and stock it went that fast. but now my top is about 50+ with a 2s, i can go 3s thho, but the xl5s are slower due to 12 turn and not 10 turn velineon motor and the vxl esc is limited to 3s, not the xl5's 2s. but nice video! FAST!!

[cattrucking]

@xXShadowRejectsXx xl5 is limited to 7 cell nimh/nicad

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@cattrucking are you sure?! my XL5 manual book said the newer xl5 rustlers are limited to 8 cells NIMH and 2s LIPo

[cattrucking]

@xXShadowRejectsXx a 2 cell lipo is true because its only 7.4 volts but traxxas doesnt recomend running 8 cells in the xlf

[CANTUSEACAMERA]

@xXShadowRejectsXx the xl-5 can handle it butn when you look up specs for the titan it has a voltage limit of 8.4v. but I run an 8 cell anyway, motors are cheap and not one has burned up on me yet.

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@CANTUSEACAMERA idk u may be right. i may be cluless

[gtdrummerdude]

Sounds like old school Opeth. If not, the band is definitely striving to copy Opeth's sound.

[sKuLLcAndy7017]

do you must buy the accu different

[TRXbandit11]

wow my bandit xl 5 is heka faster on a 7 cell

[oneflygti1]

@sukminder246 OK if you want a good fast fun truck that will not burn motors. THE STOCK MOTOR SUCKS!!!!! Get a trinity speed gem pro 15 turn motor. And run it with a 17t pinon and a 90t spur and a 7 cell 4200 battery. Y OU WILL BE IN LOVE!!!! Thats what i have and i love it. I put a gps on it and got 36 37MPH Not bad. and the motor never gets hot. Good luck!!!

[CalleOcho1234]

lol mine can go faster than that on a 6 cell lol ur pretty bad kid

[Wikblom1]

Can it wheely ?

[puma290]

wuld i have to change the gearing on my rustler if i used a 8 cell

[meamjustme]

No. But it will change yout top speed. When you have a gearing for high speed you dont want to go off road. Puts to much stress on the motor :P

[traxxasnut1]

komedykid ur thinkin of the vxl brushles rustler

[mrcornchip]

Whts the mah?

[meamjustme]

Can say the gas tank of the car. The larger the number the longer the run time. Rustler gan get about 15 minutes on 3000 MAH

[mrcornchip]

i kno wht " MAH" is i wanted to kno wht mah the battery had ... lolz

pce

[komedykid4211]

dude is there something wrong with ur car? it should go atleast 65

[krimenello]

how fast would the new traxxas rustler XL-5 water proof model go on whit a venom battery 6-cell 4200mah and Included optional 28-tooth pinion gear

[mrcornchip]

about 30 mph i have the same setup

[meamjustme]

lol. I have 3300 MAH actually. 15 Turn motor to. The titan one is not very well made apparently... :P

[tans48chevy]

how fast does it go because i just got a 8 cell off ebay but i haven't got it yet

[jessiejames2012]

how much was ur 8ght cell

[foxprogt]

it looks like the 23/86 was the best setup...shoulda ran that 8-cell with that gearing.

[squelio]

get the 7 cell cause the 8 cell will just make it runn longer

[jessiejames2012]

r u sure?

[jessiejames2012]

my ass

[tucunare65456]

what do you suggest to the Slash go faster without bursheless

[fertyface]

The gearing used is for speed runs, and the torque is pretty low compared to brushless

[krimenello]

what gearing would i need if i used 7 cell venom 4200 mah 8.4V?

[itsangelico]

stock gearing would do fine.

[timmytime1793]

better battery

like lipo or 9 cell 4200 mah or higher

[xXBMXSAINTXx]

@tucunare65456 go brushless 

[charliechain07]

I see you only let us see it going down hill.Bout to post mines

[fertyface]

It goes 1-2 mph faster downhill, so that explains it.

[1bandito8]

what brand is that battery

[fathead431]

wow, thats unbelievably fast for stock, be careful tho cos the motors burn up

[fertyface]

You would think so, but I've ran at least 100 cycles with the 8 cell on the Titan and it's still going strong, had to toss it out for a Velineon before it even gave out.

[fathead431]

oh, cool. i heard they burnt up easily

[JDeckin1296]

ya i burnt mine up but traxxas sent me a new motor for free

[brianiris]

Nice!
