4092 E-Muggy
 
The 1717 propels a truggy/muggy to greatness.
The question that arose is would the Leopard 4092 3d
be to long for the muggy Chassis?

I would have measured a 1717 but don't have access to one that big.

I mostly run 6s but in my last trade that netted me a couple 2s lipos to wire for 4s

I am curious as my second Muggy roller should be arriving here shortly to start my Conversion on...
Any help would be great for ideas .

I have had a couple stupid E-revos and fluxes
but have since decided to sell the arsenal and start over as boredom was kicking in.

The 4092 will fit in a Muggy.

Thank you, That's what i wanted to know.
Now i just have to wait till my roller shows up
and decide on what route to take...

I assume the weight is similar to a 1717 already so that shouldn't be much of a concern...

Anyone had experience with the 4092 on how they run?

My 4065 has been great in my buggy, so I'd guess the 4092 would work very well in a Muggy.

If you want something a little longer still, I happen to know that a 1527 will fit in the Muggy :wink:

devious1 01.04.2012 10:51 PM

would the 1527 1d work
or would i have to step down to the 1.5d?

Ill have to search the tube for vids on the 1527 in comparable trucks...

Edit...
never mind looks like there 8mm shaft

what about the .5y?
err looks like i can get a 5mm in the 1.5d

yzinger02 01.04.2012 11:53 PM

Ill be watching this since im wanting to put the same motor in my truck.

coolhandcountry 01.05.2012 04:09 PM

I am just curious about the muggy.
I curious to see how it turns out.

yzinger02 01.05.2012 04:10 PM

If you don't have them already, aluminum diff cases will be very important. I broke the collar off the plastic one in the rear of my muggy with a 1518 and 6s.

I think 1y (1250kv) would work well on 6s:

My 1518 is 1250kv and it runs good. Isnt the max rpm on the 4092 motors 30k?

I will look into the diff cases

This is going to be my winter project as i am thinking about
putting paddles and ski's on my Wifes Rustler for winter...

30k is more or less for boaters.
I believe the rpm is still maxed out at 60k.
someone please correct me if i am wrong...

On a street/basher basis i try not to push the max rpm's anyhow as i would rather have reserve power if need be...

But i look at things as you can never have enough power and build to support the power you plan on running...

steveo 01.05.2012 05:39 PM

i also saw something about a max rpm of 30/35k and i dont know where, but why could it be bearings or rotor size. the 1717 is rated for 45k why not 60k? like the 1518 ind 1520

devious1 01.05.2012 06:17 PM

Good new and Bad news has arrived today.

Good news I received my Muggy roller today.
Bad news Looks like i received it from team hack job...

With the chassis's present condition i believe it is a useless chassis
so i will have to upgrade chassis's

So that leaves me sitting at my original idea of the 4092

Loading pics as i type...

devious1 01.05.2012 06:24 PM

I present to you a hacked muggy roller...:grrrrrr:
for $135 shipped i am still in debate on whether or not i payed to much from rcu...

JAILBIRD 01.05.2012 06:57 PM

That chassis does look pretty bad. I have a spare that hasn't been hacked on, but it is slightly bent. I've straightened worse. If you want it, you can have it for the cost to ship.

I noticed you're in WI, where about? I live a bit north of Milwaukee.
