Heres the vid of the RX8 vs a Novak HV. RX8 had the plettenberg on 4s A123, and the novak HV 4.5 was on 4s trakpower. Me having less kv, and less power still managed to squeeze by. The RX8 kicks some serious booty.

I wouldn't say less power tho.... lol

whats the final conclusion is the RX8 esc or motor set better than the mamba monster? It seems the RX8 by spec is better than mamba monster, but motor runs hotter than than the 2200?

I haven't use the motor at all and recently sold to a fellow RCM member. The ESC is so smooth with the motors+gearing I use, that going sensored is pointless in my application. However if I would use the ESC in my 1/10 speed monkey's, than the sensored feature would come in play with the crazy rollouts.
I am very impressed with the RX8 ESC capabilities in my applications. Very easy to program. I did however had to get the Tekin Hotwire to be able to change the timing for the different motors I use.
A friend of mine is also building a Ofna GTP with an RX8, hooked up to a 1515 Tekno neu after seeing my setup in action.

thank you...I was thinking since the specs on the esc are better on the rx8 would this applicable for the savage flux truck?

I prefer the RX8 over the Monster for it's size, the smoothness and ease of programming.

The Tekin ESC is an animal. My GTP was clocked at 50mph within 100 feet thanks to its smooth power delivery.

nitrostarter 06.30.2009 08:10 PM

Ah, thats weak!!

LOL good job!! Now let see some more hand pictures lol... and drag racing video!

snellemin 06.30.2009 08:31 PM

LOL, ya that is weak compared to my 1/10 cars. I need to go to a bigger parkinglot to let the beast loose. Right now the Costco parkinglot seems like a good choice for the 300ft speedrun. Waiting for my 2 other homies to build up their GTP's+RX8 powered monsters for some good fun competition. BTW, those Ebay foam tires from suprasales are great.

Alright alright, wheres the hands??? lol...

Just kidding! Looks great! I'm still itching to do a 1/8 onroad!... one day...

I am currently running the Ofna GTP on 2s2p A123 and it's plenty fun. Pulls about 39A and less with a 6L C50 Hacker. Top speed is about 30mph, so not really a slug by any means. I'm surprised that even with that low of a voltage the RX8 works great with zero cogging.

upppp!!!!

What do you mean? I think I saw someone asking the same thing and I posted something about it, but wasn't sure what the questions was really asking. he MOSFET they use are the leadless type SO8 MOSFET and it might be the OnSemi used in the R1/R1 Pro/RS/RS Pro, MM and MMM. Does that answer you question?

galaxy76 09.25.2009 10:29 AM

yes.

know exactly what it is (BSC079N10NS or BSC118N10), right?

Which of these two?
