Brushless XXL C/C 1717 1580kv 6s 5000mAh
 

Hi, this is a pretty basic set up from what I've seen some of you guy's doing with your trucks but I thought I'd share it anyway. My 6 year old son shot the footage and I was wrapped with his work. Enjoy, we did!!

Looks like my Truggy...same power plant but a 5s motor...thinking about shoe-horning a 30t pinion in it and see how fast it will go.

That thing has some power...

Looks like your enjoying your new 1717 :party:

Welcome to RCM

nice! did the gears hold up fine?

Hi mate, all's is well, the trucks running like a dream, just can't seem to break it, just have to keep trying, I have a few ideas.
Thanks for all your help in the past, I hope you'll stop in and check for when the knob jockey gets his marching orders and return to offer your assistance.

Crikey bloke!

Untill that day happens I dont intend to stop bye, I sent 2 emails to Hitec to confirm or deny the crap that Tool spewed about the servo rates and tech data but havent heard back from them so I have no counter points for that argument. No telling weither he's right or wrong without a third party and solid info. I have no problem admitting I'm wrong but need facts and I can do without his smug know it all attitude with the strong hint of "I'm a RC God and know everything" :no:

I just dont understand why DawgBone only gave him a temp ban when everyone including himself said the guy was a complete jackass and single handedly strong armed the whole forum :neutral:

Want a laugh, put "NTRAIN" in the search box and all kinds of threads pop up with hate posts and snide remarks concerning the relief and happiness everyone had for DB banning him and here the jackhole gets back on the forum ?

I'm disgusted with that whole thing going on over there, O-well I guess ?

Take care
J.

never smile at a crocodile:lol:

another video my son took, Ii was trying out a set of big joe's until poor driving broke my hd diff outdrive cup.

Ntrain? Is that the guy over at RCtech, Ntrain42? What do you mean he strong armed the entire forum?

And great vids Millz. It seems to handle extremely well and real powerful.

Did you floor the throttle on the jumps by the way? What is the max speed?

Thanks mate, I was just getting a feel for the big joe's, no I didn't pin the throttle, I drove it like a pansy which resulted in damage, I should have pinned it, won't make that mistake again, alll or nothing to reduce damage:lol:
my speeds depend on wheels and gearing but I have hit 103kph on moab xl's, I normally try and keep the gearing around the 45-50mph.

Whoa 103kph is pretty awesome. How hot does it get when you gear for those speeds?

yeah, after only about 10 minutes she's needing a rest to cool down be temps get over 75 degrees celcius.

all good, it's been a long time and I've seem to have got my truck in order, now I need to learn to drive, I hit a tree, lol.
