Oh my freaking lord you GOT to be kidding me. No way that car will survive under a 2240. It will tear everything appart since it'g got huge torque. Be sure to capture the first meter's on film lol.

20 cell's give out 2000 watt at their best. So say your set-up will be producing 1800 watt's of power.

If I where you i'd pick a smaller motor which wheigh's less. There is absolutly no need for such a huge motor in an onroad!!

What about a 2230 10 turn? Could the car survive that? What if I geared very long to reduce the torque and give me speed?
Sneek, I am not kidding when I say I want super extreme speed, and I think the 19 series is not strong enough My car is heavier than the one used to break the speed record, and will have more drivetrain friction being a 4 wheel drive instead of a 2 wheel drive, I want to stay with 4 wheel drive for obvious reasons, besides, a 2230 at finedesignrc.com is the exact same price as a 1950 at rc-monster.com. Does this mean the 1950 has the same amount of power as the 2230? I confess that I am an insane speed addict.
Would the torque really tear everything apart or just tear the tires apart in a massive burnout?

You DO NOT need SUCH a big motor, if you want the possibly biggest motor on that thing, it would be a 1950! The 22 series is just TOO much for almost any onroad car.

No offence, but you really should take the advice, extremexmods! The members here know what they are talking about. And apparently you have not much experience with BL, so please, take the advise.

But then again, some people don't get the hint, even if you wrap it around a leadpipe. :002:

You even driven brushless? If a 1930! can push around a race maxx on 4s lipo on the track, imagen what a 1940 or 1950 can do. I just bought a 1950 8 turn for my supermaxx which weigh's almost 6 kilo's! ready to run. Hmm and with the proper gearing I could hit 50 mph without a sweat.

Still think it's not powerfull enough for a onroad car.....?

I would use a 1930 and 5s lipo if I wanted an ultra fast onroad car, unless it is a 1/5th scale car then I would go with a 22 series. Order apogee 5s lipo pack, MGM 16024, a rc monster heatsink, and a 1930 high amp, build the car stout gear it right, drive it straight, and it should see 70+ no problem. Oh and order from RC Monster Mike not finedesign trust me.

Actually, I would choose a Bolido for a 1/5th scale car. Only thing is finding pinions....

How fast could a 1950 go? I want to hit at least 125 mph. What would a 2230 do to this car if I could fit it in, obviously gearing way longer than a 1 to 1 ratio? I absolutely can't afford lipo. Should I get extra for a high amp? I would like an esc with reverse also.

A 2230 is out of the question....It would make it 10 feet.

Extreme mods Did you read the write up promod made on wattage and motor size. He ran the 2240 and a lehner xl motor. Both ran close to the same speed. Even though he geared them up the wattage was not enough to push it faster. The thread was david vs goliath. It has some very interesting facts. The 19 series should push you farther than you can stand to handle the car.

125 mph in a heavy onroad car. Well atleast your being optimistic I guess.

Good luck...

To give you an idea how fast that is, check out the video radical. They measure the speed of a buggy going wot(?) on a street. Only 45 mph but it look's fast! Your little onroad will be running 3 time's that. In other word's - uncontroleble.

Guys, this is clearly a wind up.

I'm off to put a 3080 in an xmods and it's going to break the sound barrier.I'm going to start a thread about it.

extremexmods, this is my last post to this thread it is pointless, if you cant afford lipo, you cant afford a car to go 100+mph, anyone who has had an RC anywhere near that fast has destroyed cars in the process. These are my sincere recomendations: 1 buy a 1/18th car get a mamba brushless comp X buy a 3s lipo pack (you can get an excellent one for 50-60) it will go very fast probably over 70 it will be fun as hell, total investment probably less than 500$, or 2 buy a 1/8th onroad (serpent) and one of those badass .28 truggy motors it may take a little work to fit it but it should fit, topspeed 80+ this would be the more expensive route but you could recover your investment easier if you decided to sell.

:035:

Give the guy a brake boys!

Appearantly, he is going for a speedrecord. and he really can't do without our help, that's a fact.

If you want the ultimate speedrecord, get a shaft driven car, and be sure you go the skills to make your own motormount. No matter what 1/10th scale you get, the 2240/2250 will RIP it's drivetrain into pieces. (small price to pay for the speedrecord)

if i was you, i would start with getting a 1/10th on 6S lipo and see what brushless is all about.

I don't want anyone post anything negative towards extremeXmods, and a personal note to extremexmods; please do you reading, and more important, try to understand what the people are telling you.

This forum is about helping people out. Abviously Extremexmods hasn't decided what to buy. and he neither has got any idea what BL is all about;

So, my advise; get a 1950 on 6S lipo to put in your 1/10th scale (or even a wanderer XL would do on a 15020 warrior.)

Get it and be amazed by it's power Boy!
