1/16 Mini E-Revo - Top Speed Build

[Semi Pro]

thats very true, i tend to over engineer things

but i figured that the ballance would be very important because of the size of the bearings

have you figured out how fast the shaft will be turning when the truck hit 100mph?

honestly i would have something made for it, atleast protect your lipos from it with a sheild if it does brake......but the if it does fail around 100mph it could total the truck..............see we engineers take things to far







oh and i my have my math wrong (its 5am lol) but that drive shaft is turning at 23k rpm at 100mph........... thats why balance is a huge factor............how are your bearings?

Semi Pro,
I definitely understand where you are coming from and I don't disagree. But who custom builds and spin-balances RC driveshafts? If I knew of a place to do this for me, I would have gone that route. But as with so many things on this build, I've been left to figure it out and hope for the best
