Hi Guys,
I love my infraction. I have a V1 I bought used and it’s just awesome. I love driving fast by me. It is just impressive and powerful. A great rush. I also love hooning and the stock system is annoying me because if it starts to go in reverse direction (inadvertently) when I blow a drift, it won’t go forward. So if I am going to upgrade, what should I be doing?
1) run time. What run times should I be seeing? I’m guessing part of the problem is I’m using mediocre batteries. I am down to 6min run times on a pair of 3s ZEE 8000mah. I’m guessing it’s the batteries that suck since it seems like a lot of people are getting far higher run times. I like to blast the car by me for a high speed pass and then hood around a bit and repeat. While I am not gentle, I don’t believe my drive style is THAT hardcore.
17t pinion. 18 was what it came with but it seemed like it overheated too easily. Weather was hot so no big surprise. So I went down to 16t. Back up to 17. Have power hobby fans on motor and stock esc fan.
2) why do folks have TWO infractions? A lot of people seem to have an 8s AND a 6s. What are the reasons?
3) my goal is to have 15 min run times, be able to do a high speed pass and then hoon. repeat. I do not plan to be a speed runner. Should I upgrade to 8s? I am probably nearing my own limits on ability for my drive space.
But I am looking for good speed, good electronic temps, good run times and sensored motor ,since I don’t like not being able to throttle out of going backwards. And while top speed is already pretty good, I’d like a little head space upward
Thanks!
