longer run times?

[QUOTE=E-Revonut;356560] You said you have 14-18T pinion, how is the speed for you with the 14T versus the 18t? If the 14T is enough speed on the track you will get longer runtime than with the 18T.

-i notice the difference in acceraltion between the 14-18t and the 18t feels like it has longer legs than the 14t.so would running a larger pinion make the motor wrk less?

As for batteries 4s 14.8V x 5000mah gives you 74 watt/hrs (voltage x amps) So a 5s pack of 4000mah should supply the same amount of power and give you the same run time, however running higher voltage will decrease the amp draw and create less heat, the lower amp draw will not yield longer runtimes though because the 4000mah battery has less mah to supply you power. If your in need of longer runtimes and you change nothing you need a bigger battery, like 6000mah+.

-so larger mah packs make things more efficient?



Learning throttle control and rolling into the throttle rather than stabbing it and blipping the throttle like a nitro will help a tremendous amount!

-i am still search for that perfect throttle curve setting to give me a steady throttle 'roll'

Mah = milli amp hours, this is how big the fuel tank is, nothing to do with efficiency. The bigger the mah the bigger the pack, the longer the run time (with the same setup).

Learn to use a steady finger instead of flat out.
