im in bro....i've been going out to prairie for the past 3 layout changes (i think its been 2-1/2 years :neutral:) but i've never raced and i'm thinking about going to a club race this season....but ever since i've been out there...(my first brushless convo being an RCM'ed out revo 3.3 ) i've never ran into someone that ran brushless....but then again i go on wierd days b/c of my work scheduale :oops: like tuesday morning at 0900.....its nice to know there are other RCM'ers in my area....but like i said..im in!!! I'm no A-mainer FT driver but I can drive 1 out 5 laps pretty clean without crashing :mdr:.....well...mabe 1 out 7 depending on how excited I was after completing a difficult jump section only to crash on the next :lol:...BTW I had andrew (the track creator) drive my RX8 RC8t for a full battery pack and it was awesome seeing what the truggy is capable of in the right hands :yes:

How about gearings 15/46 with 6S LiPo and RX8 T8 2250 combo ( nitro clutch ) , is it going to get hot or something with those zippy's 6S LiPo's ?

I would change the settings enough with hotwire ?

I will use TT2360 with RX8 in my X2CRT truggy, mechanic brakes and 3-shoe nitro clutch, and 3ch radios maybe.

I think 6S on a 2250 is a bit too much! Go for the 1350 when you want to use 6S batteries. Unless you want to go for a dragrace X2:lol:

My 4S 2250kv is very fast and has the punch control on! :intello:

Ok. I would buy some new batteries, going to be cheaper than new motor. I have experience with brushed and brushless cars for 5 years and I know what I do, I asked some advices from peoples who have alot of experience with brushless electrics - and now especially with that product what I mean.

If I can't reduce the power enough with hotwire PC-link, then I buy some new parts to my car.

I agree that is overgeared and over powered by a lot! 6s should be around 1400kv,etc.

Can't change to a 17T pinion on my F8T. The meshing would be too tight no matter how I try to mount the motor. Guess my only option would be to mess with the Timing...I'm on 4s 5000 25c with the 2050 buggy combo.

team3six 07.26.2009 10:20 PM

I need help. wondering if anyone can give me an idea where to set up my hotwire specs.

I am running a 2WD Truck w/ a 69T spur, 16T pinion. 5 1/4 tires, running (2) SMC 5000 7.4's in series. and this is running the 2250 system

This isnt really for racing so I would like limited brakes and reverse to work in this profile.
anyone have an idea what my setup should look like?

TekinTeamMgr 07.27.2009 11:44 AM

I'd expect you to run brake strength lower than most, along with a reversing motor type. I'd also reccomend lowering your reverse strength also.

How much does this truck weigh?

Just installed a slipperential last weekend, and it rules. Dropped a tooth for the track (16 x 46). No drag brake anymore, 10 degrees timing on 4s. The fan has yet to come on with the slipperential.

I am running a tekno neu 1512 2050kv motor on 2x 2s smc 9000mah packs in my tekno rc8 and get about 18 minutes before my first cutoff... I am the only electric at the track I think... If a decent driver was at the wheel, they would have taken the 20 minute final with ease, as there were no pit stops to be made hehehe

I would like to get the slipperential in the buggy and truggy too...
