the RSPro is a R1Pro with a sensor port.

so I should gear it for about 45-50?

Start at 40 and work up...

so with the 2200 a 15t pinon looks to be about right

is there any diffrence between the RR and novak pinions, RCM, losi, etc?

any experiance with the speed passion motors???

will a 7.5 be a good choice??:whistle::oops:

No. Just get the CC 2200 and be done with it.

but $140 for a motor... the buggy isn't worth 1/2 that much...

note to self, servo tape is not an acceptable way of puting batts in a 1/8 buggy:lol::rules::oops::whip:

the 4.5 works realy good on a 2 cell with a 12t pinion, after 10min, it never got hot, a lil warm(~100) but not hot enough to bring out the temp gun

esc never got past 1led...

well, you guys sucseeded in makeing me buy the singal most expensive RC item I own, a NEU 1512 1.5d 3300KV, a little high but it has the finned can and was only $100

the next paycheck has a 48t spur and a 11t pinion....

do they make a plastic 48t spur for a 1/8 buggy? It sounds like a chainsaw with the metal gears:whip:

Funny, you beat me to that motor... Good deal, it will make some power on 4s.

Kyosho make 46t plastic spurs. I ran a motor of that kv (hacker c50 8l) in my hyper7 on 4s. Used 11/46 gearing and it was spot on for mid 40s...

For $40 I would have taken the one from RCM...

Sort out that rear brace...

???? the novak trays are on the way


46/11 won't fit with the motor mount :(



the rear brace and the chassis needs to be replaced... skateboard ramp+overgeared .28+open road+ME!!+"hey watch this*"= "thats AWSOME, holy mother of... oh *****************

still finding chunks of the cooling head and other random parts a year later:whistle::oops:



will the RCM LST 2 speed pinion work, or does anyone make 2 speed pinions?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...50025&viewitem

BTW I did not buy that for the 2 speed, more for the CNC knuckals and the masive amounts of suspention parts...


* Famous last words of $$$$$ worth of stuff, the same goes for, "what happens if..."

I got the bat boxes in and I'm going to mount them sometime this weekend, but I have a new problem, were do I mount the RX and esc with 2 batts???:neutral:

IDK but I'm thinking of keeping the RX were it its and put it in one of THESE or THESE and then mounting the esc on top of it. would I get any interference issues with a 75mhz FM system??


so whats everyone else doing?

this is the basic layout, but with another batt on the other side too

my neu should be here sometime soon:yipi:

Unless you run 2.4ghz keep the rec away from the esc and motor, as they will mess with reception.

I generally place the esc near the motor and put the rec on top of the steering servo. Do you have the lay down or stand up servo on that hyper? I cannot remember what my 7 had... I think it was a stand up type. So lay it on its side and you will have some space to mount the rec on top of it. Can you move the fuel tank side tray forward and mount the esc behind it on the chassis? Layout will look a bit funny, but it will be closest to the motor. Or you could mount it in front of the tray across from the servo, but your motor wires will be long, which is never a good thing.

Ok, I looked at the pic... I would move the fuel tank side battery box forward, and mount the esc behind it. Get some servo mounts and lay the servo down and put the rec on top of it. That will keep the rec away from the motor and esc. Best layout I can come up with...
