Ask about my brushless savage - 01.16.2007, 10:55 AM

Hallo everybody,
I'm new in this forum, I'm Italian and I write from Rome.
I've bought a fantastic brushless Savage from Rene (I think he is a member of this forum).
Before now, I've used the Savy with a Novak HV brushless systems 4.5 (about 700 watt) and now I'm waiting for a Mamba Max with UBEC and a Lehner 1940/8 from RC-Monster and 2 for 6000 2S2P Maxamp Lipo.

I would like to ask you which could be the best Pinion and Spur gear set of teeth.


Alex.

P.S. I'm sorry for my bad english :002:

Hi Alex! welcome to the forum!

Don't apologies for your English.! Italian is a totally different language than English..

if i remember it right, it had a 49T spur on it; With a 17T pinion it would go about 55 km/h.

I think that's a good gearing to start with.

The savage is still going strong?

Are you Rene? Nice to "meet" you! :027:
Your savage (my Savage :027:) is very awesome and It still going very strong!
On it there was a 47 t spure gear with a 12 t pinion to use with my novak.
Now, the 12t pinion was damaged by a steel spur gear that I used only one time, but however it will be too short for the new Lehner motor.
I have also a 49t and a 52t spur gears and I'm waiting for two pinion, a 14t and a 16t one.
With a 47/16, on speed calculator website, I get a max velocity of about 59 km/h.
Is this velocity too low as max velocity or is it good to enjoy enough?
Must I ask for more velocity to this Savage?

Alex.

Yeah, i am, sorry for not introducing..

Hello Alex!

arh, steel spurs kill pinions!

that is a good topspeed for a basher. You will enjoy the power it has over the HVmaxx! 59 km/h for a monster truck is very fast!

that HV maxx would be nice in a lightweight e-maxx (stock/g-maxx frame and with 4S lipo)

Rene, I've a doubt, do you remember if my savage transmission is locked in the 1st or 2nd gear? :032:

Center differential - 01.24.2007, 04:46 AM

Now, I'm thinking about putting a center differential on my savage, it would be a good idea?
I know that I can use the Ofna differential, but what else would I must buy ?
Could I use my two center CVD or will I need other length one?
Are the supports (castle?) for center differential homemade or does exist any to buy already made?
I'm so confused!
