really? I'm going to have to infiltrate this clodtalk forum. Surely "chase" would like to trade an e-maxx for a plette. now to convince him of such.....

Good luck. Chase has been working on that truck for years and its not done yet. He also has a 1/5th scale car that will run the Bolido in the works.
ah yes, long projects. I bought the schulze back when they were cool, and still haven't built a truck with it. I need atleast a 4 poler because the schulze comes preset with hot timing and I don't do programming, oh but when i'm done it will be cool

Concidering a single BigMaxximum can make a large truck do multiple backflips anywhere in the throttle range almost, I kinda wince at the thought of what 2 could do.
Anyway, I like the idea of using two small but good motors, such as the lehner basics (cool running and ample torque), but using a couple 'feigaos' on 3s sounds abit half-assed really. I'd like to see traxxas come out with something to rival the MMM, then all those kids on the traxxas forums would ditch their V-twins in a heartbeat, such is human nature. Im still holding out for the new Novak system- 6 months isnt that long.... is it?
For really big top end, twin is hard to beat since you can gear the mess out of the system and let the motors share the load. Gearing one engine to run 60mph pulling 10-12lbs is going to be tougher then gearing two motors to run 60mph carrying half that weight.
Thats Jay's transmission and motors (chase23) its in a Tamiya juggernaut if you can believe it. As far as I know he has never run it! I think 1 of the motors is in an emaxx now anyway, that photo is about 4 years old!

Chase is slowly getting around to finishing the Juggernaught thing he's been working on for god knows how long, just needs to get another custom cvd made and a few other bits and pieces (thread located on clodtalk.com).
