Q: Sensored brushless for mini-Summit

[E-Revonut]

Tenbol big block mount, MMpro and a 21.5T motor, maybe 17.5, you'd have to throw some numbers in the speed calculator and see what would work best. It'd never overheat and you'd be able to throw it in another RC when you get tired of the 1/16 scale. Just my opinion that the 1/16 isn't small enough for indoor use and to small for outside, I got tired of staying on the pavement with my revo vxl and sold it

I spoke with Novak tech support, and they think the Three-80 crawler would work great in the mini-Summit. The guys at the LHS think the motor is way too small and wouldn't be able to handle the larger truck. I might just buy it and try it just for fun.

If it doesn't work out, I'll probably look at the Tenbol mount, MMPro, and a 540 size low kV sensored motor.

I live across the street from a mountain, so my daughter and I go hiking a lot. The mini-Revo I had was too small, but the mini-Summit is a great trail rig for the terrain we're on, it just needs better low speed drivability. I take the big Summit as well, geared low with it's sensored Tekin RX8/1350kV system. This makes for very fun hikes!
