I did 114mph as a test and it held on. But honestly it's not reliable. I read the reviews on these and sure enough I had experienced the same issues of the hood pins coming out. It's a great idea though and innovative. I discovered a fix and I haven't had no more issues. I planned on sharing when I get to my HoBao speed run series schedule.
Your going to love it. I would just use the body post from an Arrma Kraton or something to have more room adjusting the body height and stuff. That was one of my annoying issues. But you have a Limitless should have some spare parts in the bag.
Excellent build! I’m waiting on my HoBao Extreme to come back in stock somewhere LOL. But will you please tell list the full name of that body it is sweet!! Thanks
You didn't hear me say I have a better driveshaft? I haven't had many issues with the aluminum tracxas driveshaft. I only see people have issues when they are putting down more power than the car is set up for. It's been 2 years and replaced once.
Oh my mistake. My cousin snapped one and it was stock out the box. But ive been very fortunate. I raced a lot of people with this stock system and won. But we'll see. What makes you think that it will snap though?
Nice comparison bro. Not sure I would prefer bigger cans than the 1721-2400kv one. 1721-2400kv seems to be the fastest motor out there.. (other than having FUN;)) What was your intension on switching up to a bigger cans?
@@MatrixRC no i watch the whole thing, even tho i know bout VTe2 mounting options..I have one myself 😉 Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see when you run speed test on the big can 👍
@@MatrixRC thanks. I've just ordered a rotor lock motor mount from scorched parts UK, it will accommodate the 1717 motor, and anything upto 49mm. Will post a video when it gets here and installed.
Gotta get me a VTE2 💪🏾💯🔥
I believe you have more wiggle room than the Limitless. They really did put effort into designing this
@@MatrixRC yeah my boy Nick Steele and his boy had a lot of input on this design...
Isn't the bigger gear just used for dragging thanks for sharing👍
@Ted Never heard of that.
@@MatrixRC I believe I heard someone say that. I could be wrong👍
Looks like you need our Hobao Extreme Lightweight Wheelie Bars
Definitely, for the Drag Races. That would help. 👍🏽🤔 How can I get one?
Bro can’t wait to see this going she is going to be crazy
Yes crazy indeed. 👍🏽🤣
awesome motor and great install
Thanks hope it helps some folks out.
@@MatrixRC 😁👍
Beautiful hobao, who makes those body post buttons?
They're just hood pins for actual cars. Amazon.
@@MatrixRC just found them from your older video, how do they hold up on high speed and impact?

@@MatrixRC oh ok, thanks for the insight. Thought buying a vte2 soon. Already had a limitless

Thanks 👍🏽. Its Bitty Body's McLaren Seven65 for the 1/7 Scale . You can buy it on Amain.com
Looks good. But you will snap that motor shaft bro.

@@MatrixRC bro I said motor shaft. Lol all 👍🏼 good nice build. We talking about the vte2 not Traxxas. Read your post bro

You probably missed it. But this was just to display the fitment qualities between the two type of Castle Motors which most people are going to use.

Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see when you run speed test on the big can 👍
Thanks brother 🙏🏾💯
TP 4080 2022KV
Won't be able to keep it on the ground.
YES MY BRUTHA.
im using that big block mount for the 1717 ( 47.6) diameter can.
I loved this video.
keep em comin man
👍🏽💯 yes sir!
Hi Matrix , just so I'm understanding you the 1717 ( 47.6) 1650kv motor will not fit onto the big block mount?
Thanks
Yes. The motor shaft is going to touch the 1/5 scale mount when you try to bolt it on.
@@MatrixRC thanks. I've just ordered a rotor lock motor mount from scorched parts UK, it will accommodate the 1717 motor, and anything upto 49mm. Will post a video when it gets here and installed.
Good stuff💯👍🏽thanks can't wait to see it
