Monster Landmax - 12.26.2009, 04:35 AM

Gday,
New member here, so a big gday to all! I started reading this forum for the brushless and Castle Creations threads.
I've converted a Kyosho 4wd Landmax 1 to brushless. I am one of the last four LANDMAX AHOLICS worldwide, a very rare and older breed. The LM kit was purchased nearly ten years ago & just sitting on my shelf. Technology caught up, and prices fell, allowing me to build this beast with electric components.
The car is 1/8 and based on the Inferno. I tried alot of motors, esc's, batteries, pinions etc, before I settled on this setup now.
Neu 1415-1Y, Zippy 5000 MaH 30c 5s Lipo, Castle Creations Monster esc, using the monster bec, 50% punch, 0 timing, 15/51 gearing, ball raced tranny/wheels, eagle tree data logger, Hobbypro MP7 motor mount from rcmart, Hitec HS-5645MG steering servo, sway bars, Kyosho big shock option. I converted the 19mm hex to 17 with Ofna adaptors. Everything else stock, like drivetrain, suspension arms, dogbones etc. Car weight 3.4 kgs fully laden. The car is a brute and loads of fun to drive.
I hope any Landmax fans out there read this and enjoy. So far, on 5s, over 1570 watts!!! My face is hurting from grinning. My wallet is empty paying for tyres. We will get this car on Moorebank raceway NSW asap & shoot a vid with a pro driver.

Here is a quick vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPJGKgTASWA

Thanks for looking,
Regards
Peter
