Hello everyone,
I've recently got myself into an Arrma Limitless v1 chassis, removed the spool as was unsure of what gearing i needed so copied the infraction setup so i threw my "lsd" out of my Kraton 6s v4 rtr which had quite a few upgrades apparently an LSD? Is that possible?
Anyway i threw the blx185 from Kraton into the Lim and threw a 17t pinion on it to gear it similar to infraction rtr setup it was pretty fast but didnt have the gps at the time i run that! But it did seem fast.
Now ive threw a used Hobbywing max 6 and a used Hobbywing 4985 1650kv motor in it. And they're both in mint condition and apparently have had very little use. The sellers feedbacks were very food and they were very helpful so i don't think my problem is the electronics.
Tried it with the 17t and was slow, ordered a 27t as i read that'll get me to 80-90mph and i recently got the skyrc gps, so i done a speedrun tonight and it seemed fast but i only got 63mph, what am i doing wrong here? Did i buy a duffer of a motor? Or do i need to run a spool or alter gearing or something?
Also the motor didnt seem to run hot, ive got the double 40mm 3d printed fan mount from ebay uk that goes onto the sideskirt and stands up next to motor with 2 aluminium 16,000rpm fans and The esc has a 35mm aluminium surpass hobby fan.
Ive raced 1/10 scale touring cars brushed&brushless, rwd mardave, 1/8 nitro off road and been into the hobby for about 16-17years with a break for the last ten or so years.
Think Im a little rusty but I'm new to 1/7scale so any help is much appreciated its 1:44am in morning here (Scotland) so probably wont be up much longer but thanks in advance
