P.S. Click the HQ button on the bottom of the youtube viewer window for a superior quality picture, it deals with the motion much better.

I signed up here because of you guys and all these information....I can't wait to get my SERPENT going with the right batteries, speedo and motor and run with the NITRO 1/8th.....been racing the 1/8th for 3-4 years but I have no doubt to believe ELECTRIC will soon take over the 1/8th scene...keep up the good work and keep posting new info,

what betteries are people using for the conversion? i have everything but the lipos and i will be running 6s, but not sure what cells to get

[mabu]

So - last weekend i could finish my conversion ... 1800kv on 5s Fepo is not soooo fast as i hoped it will be... but also with this performance i need to replace a rear hub

i only have a 2600kv motor as replacement - this would be like 6s fepo on 2000kv ... but the 1800kv motor already got hot at the weekend session ( most of the time drifting )

@CountryChick: are you running 6s2p fepo now?

hi countryhick..

i have a serpent 950R brushless, and i'm looking to change my motor anonimus with a Neu...

i have at home a Plettenberg Maxximum 3000 rpm/vol but it's too large and i'll have to make big modifications to make it fit.... very worried about it.. great motor but too large...

how it's yours runtime at 6s with the neu??

many thanks!

Not real good. I only get around 10 mins. of flat out racing.

[streethot]

I saw some 3s 2550mah 40C lipos, to build 6s packs....460g in total, in order to run a 2200kv i dont know if it's enough.......but i will give a try.....cheap at hobbycity......

someone saw this 40C packs from Rhino???

now i am running 5s 5000mah 30C pack 720g, gearing is quite difficult on short track.......
