Felony Well !! That escalated Quickly!

[joshludden]

I don’t know what chassis to get !!!!!
Am I wrong in thinking the to motor with 2 6s 25k mah 125c batteries should flog the tires even if it was made of tool steel. !
Help me spend money I don’t have !!!!!
I want shock and awe!!
And smoky tires !!!
Any input would be appreciated

25,000mah??!! Where/how does one fit not one, but 2 shoe boxes in an rc car?

That's $1200 in batteries alone

I've never even heard of anything like that. Brand?

If that's not big enough...they make a 30000mAh battery too.

That just looks like a disguise for a suitcase nuke! That is one big mama!

A SNUKE!! Here's a guy that put the 30000mAh in a TRX-4 with more brass parts than God for sled pulling. Thing is a beast. I time coded it to start where he pulls the lid off the truck. It's hysterical.

Wouldn't want to see that one go up in flames!

My bad
After further research on the TP 1440 kv motor I can only go 8s .
At least that’s my understanding….
Dang it
I wanted at least 10s

What esc were you planning on doing that with?

 

[Ron Burgandy]

I’m think/ the XLX2 ??
What other options?
Now I’m bummed Can’t run 10s
Uhg.

XLX2 only supports 8s =D you don't need 10s, 8s on that motor is going to turn your car into a rocket.

 

[Ron Burgandy]

So something like this would work good for tire smoking ?
TP says max volts is 34

Where can I find that extra 3.6v ?

You don't want hv batteries, it will ruin your ESC if you charge them up fully and if you don't charge them up fully then whats the point of buying hv batteries?

I think you're really underestimating just how much power you're about to have with that motor and 8s. Tbh it damn near doesn't matter what lipo you use, it's going to smoke tires regardless. just don't buy hv 8s batteries.

Thats 8s with a tp motor that's not even as strong as yours and I basically blew up a hoon that was on it's first pack lol.

 

[Ron Burgandy]

You are correct
I have no idea what this TP motor is going to be like
I’ve never even seen one to be honest !
Would these 4s batteries work ??
Or should I go with 120c ?

 

[Ron Burgandy]

Cmon fed ex this crap ain’t funny …
Uhg !!!!

Look at what the speed runners do for batteries. A lot of battery manufacturers straight up lie about the C rating, with lower C packs performing better than allegedly high C rated packs

I'm not sure what speed runners have to do with this. As for the C-ratings, we're well aware that there's no standardized method of determining it and that it's just marketing. At some point one manufacturer began labeling their lipos with inflated C-ratings to boost sales. It was only a matter of time before the entire industry started doing the same thing as I'm sure they're well aware that the majority of people out there don't know better and will fall for this marketing ploy. At that point it was up to the individual user to figure out what was going on. The information is out there, you just won't get it from the manufacturers. I liken it to the scandal revolving around VW regarding the exhaust measurements of their diesel cars. My suspicion is that they're all doing it. But one of them got caught. The lipo industry isn't subject to the same kinds of regulations that cars are and this is the number that they've settled on fudging. Technically speaking, they're not fudging them as I'm sure they could provide a methodology by which they arrived at the values you see printed on the packs. But each manufacturer has their own methodology, which is the problem.

Pretty easy - the man is looking at high performing "high c rated" batteries, so I told him to go look where a bunch of people have a whole boat load of data on battery performance
