Runtime? - 06.06.2007, 01:07 PM

Well Im still debating on the setup cause I want the runtime still.

So a 4.5 hv-maxx
8xl with MM
9xl and mm
hv-maxx esc with a sensored 8xl

All oin 14 cells and 4200

I saw a video of a evo with the 9xl and it went pretty good. Go look at it in the revo fourm plz

So whats the fastest and what has the longest runtime? I drive at low speeds alot so thats why I like the sensored.

i know i was getting between 20-30 minutes with the 6.5. less amp draw = more runtime.

but...

maybe pick a system with the power you like first, accept that you won't have as much runtime with the IB's, and drop pennies in your piggy bank for a lipo fund?

4s.... a mm cant run a 5s very well.....

and at 8000 mah thats more then enuff.... u would buy 2 2s packs... and then u wire them in series for voltage....even then thats WELL over 20 mins of wot, more id think

with 8000's, you should get at least 30 min runtime. I get 15 - 20 min with my A123 4600mah (16.5v) pack running a 7XL on 18/51 gearing.

Well enuff(lol^) for me would be like 30 mins to what every. So If i gear the motor with a smaller pinion (more torqe) It wont run as hot correct? Longer runtimes but slowwer?

Yes, more runtime, slower, more torque (although these motors have 3 times the torque you even need at any given time)

What about heat? Just on any motor.

No, not necessarily... these motors have different efficiencies at varying torque and speeds. You have to gear them correctly, or else they get too hot.

To under geared, they spin at max rpm too much and that causes heat from too iron losses. Better motors such as LMT, and the Neu's don't suffer as much from this problem.

Too under geared, and they draw too much current (with a happy trigger finger), and will cause too much heat in the form of resistance losses, the more current you draw, exponentially more heat you generate.
