@4Rracing anyway thats a real good setup, ive always got ++ respect for custom work, i found your page cos was researching to build a 1/5th brushless but im just gonna hold on to see what the xo1 is like, i really wanted a 100mph 1/5th but i think the brushless are just not quite there yet for this size, anyways take care mate

Try as you may you won't find that stated by Castle for that motor. People often make mistakes and I can accept that.

@ecoovert I read somewhere that the Savage Flux motor was 6hp? Hmmm, must be wrong! Do you know what it puts out?

I could be wrong but I think that's closer to 3.35 horse power at 2500 watts. The 4082 motor in my 1/12th scale Miss Geico boat is rated at 3500 watts and only produces 4.69 horse power. It takes 745.7 watts to produce 1 horse power according to the vast majority of formulas used for rc. That seems to be the standard. That is an impressivespeed for a 1/5th scale car though. What's the kv rating of your motor and who makes it?

@levrone007
it is loud because a tooth is broken on the Mod 1 gear of 52 teeth. I was doing numerous quick full throttles, the first time I did it from a stand still the car jumped straight up into the air and landed on it's side. I have upgraded to a higher grade gear and put thread lockon the screws to insure proper gear mesh. it has been holding up.

watts, I asked Castle if this motor can handle this lipo, and they said it should be fine with my setup and driving.
