My brushless Revo

60 weight and try the silver 120 mm springs - ( even if your running the 90 mm rockers ) - the blacks were too soft for my revo running 2 5 cell lipos - i think you likey..

" Aoccdring to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm.

Thats awesome :):005:

Has anyone radared or GPS'd a BL revo? What kind of speeds are acheivble with "normal" setups (ie 14-18 cells)? I always assumed 40 mph as the Novak does mid 30's, and these sensorless are be quite a bit more powerful. Hmm Right now the titans woud give a strong run to the 9920/8xl which just isn't right.

The Q125 sounds good, just not the $280. :007: I was hoping to be able to run until the CC MMMaxx comes out and compare, tho this may be forever and a day.

25mph can't be right. I don't know if I ever hit 40mph with my 8XL, but it was very fast and my truck was heavy and I was only using 14 cells.

That 9920 might be bad as you pointed out. If you were running on fewer FETs due to some being burnt out, that could cause the heat and reduced performance. Too bad you didn't know anyone that lived near you who would let you try another ESC.

Are your batteries up to the task? That 8XL can pull some current. If they can't supply the current required, the truck will be slower and also cause the ESC to heat up. When I first put my V1 Revo together, I used less-than-high quality cells (just to try it out) and there was definitely a performance difference when switching to GP cells.
