Re: HL Truck Mods
This model truck mallarky is getting out of hand!
Going more dual motor setup and this is big stuff now
It even just about fits in a c chassis!
Having to play a bit with ratios however to get the torque. If i want WPL type speed and more torque i have to run these beauties in 500 or 1000rpm setups and run 4s! which actually means running 2x 2s lipo in series haha due to size constraints.
But i have some lower rpm motors coming so i can run more torque and slower speed on 3s
Whilst i was playing, i decided to do some serious Torque tests for my little dual 180 setup.
This setup yes is slow, but who cares when it can pull

Re: HL Truck Mods
Will, that truck needs a little more weight to get more grip but, that's got some awesome pulling power

Talking of which, where does one get that figure please.

Re: HL Truck Mods
I had to do.it to prove pulling power as everyone is sceptical. As for weight that oil filled radiator is 15kg. So i don't think I can add enough weight up.front to get the front wheels down hahaSon of a gun-ner wrote:Will, that truck needs a little more weight to get more grip but, that's got some awesome pulling power
