Just some outcast and ejato videos. My bashing buddy couldn't make it. I tried brightening the footage as it was pretty cloudy the entire time I was out, doing so made it a bit grainy.
My local park with the outcast. Running 16/50 gearing with traxxas 3.8 Maxx zero offset tires. Seems plenty fast for me and I don't know how it will do at the other park I run at. It overheated on me here, but it was towards the end of the pack and I found that my motor fan and esc fan were unplugged at the ESC. Then I found a rock from my last bash stuck in the esc fan. Figured that out about 5 minutes before my packs went dead.
Also, turned my rear tower into a V around my T2T brace, it cracked when I bent it back at the car. Also busted my front center brace, the wing mount and wing mount support. Was a bad landing. I commented on it when it happened "that bent something...".
New skatepark that was about 40 minutes away... not sure it was worth it, but it's 15 minutes past another that I ran at. I didn't have time to run at both.
There was a soccer match going on nearby that just ended and as people were leaving, they were stopping, clapping and honking when I'd launch out of the end.
First time I ran the eJato on 3S. Changed the gearing up and I think it's about perfect for me. I dialed the EPA on the throttle back to 80% to try and get a bit more run time without crushing the axles so hard. Also, the only 3S packs I currently have are 2 25C traxxas 5000mah packs.
I ran it at both parks as well.
I'm trying to find some 5000mah 3S packs that I can start buying to use in all my trucks and switch over to use 3s/6s vs 2s/4s, but I'm having a hard time finding ones that are short enough for the stampede 4x4 and thin enough for my e-revo. I've really liked running the 7200/7400 SMC 2S lipo's in all my trucks. They fit in everything and I don't have to worry about having to discharge fully charged packs if I break one of my trucks. I just run them in another truck. Hope I can find something that works for all of them. I don't want to go back to having 2 types if I can avoid it.
