Why does the DR10 body have to look so damn amazing!?!? I absolutely plan to pick one up in green. also that motor is really pretty, can't go wrong with trinity. Thank you for the unboxing and testing, totally appreciate it.
Yes I was waiting to the end of the video to recommend that I've been watching a lot of drag racing videos and a piece of carpet sounds like the way to go some of them use nothing but a piece of carpet it helps with keeping the tires clean and it helps with an nice even burn across the tires and the tires last longer it look good and the boy says you need to give him the hit he needs a rolling start on that bike lol
I went to watch a local test n tune, and in addition to carpet, I saw a couple guys spray glue on their tires. The fastest (in a class of its own) was a belt driven car. So neat to see. The Traxxas funny car (discontinued version I saw), wow when it took off it had the same tire inside body sound as watching NHRA. Was so neat
You were geared for a 4 pole motor and the trinity is a 2 pole motor. Drop about 3-4 teeth on pinion and it should pick up considerably. Leave timing at 40
@@RoadsideRC what would you set the timing to if you don’t mind me asking? I’m new to drifting and have watched most of your drift vids. Thanks for those and for responding
It's slower as it's a 3300kv reedy vs a 3500kv velinion/castle. The reedy is actually better suited for a 2wd slash off-road rig. It has plenty of torque, but doesn't rev up like the castle.
What is the ESC amperage? I just pulled the stock system out of my DR because the 13.5 class is much larger. They mandate that only the Hobby Wing Just Stock XR10 ESC can be used. It's rated at 60/380 and I'm using a Maclan motor. Best time I've seen so far is 3.25 at 40 mph and it's inconsistent as can be. I've gone up and down in gearing and timing and cannot find anymore that it can handle without a wheelie bar. Kind of a bummer since the stock system will run 3-3.1 all day long.
All of the sensored motors I use have the timing marks. It changes the timing of the pulse compared to the rotor. Basically, the same concept as timing in a 1:1 gas motor.
It's moving the rotor to a different rest position against the magnets. This equals more speed/ power, at the cost of more heat/resistance. It's the reason warranties for these types of motors tell you to keep timing below a certain range.
Did you ever come up with a good gearing? I’m currently running 69/32-5 and get even hit 40mph. Timing is at 60*, just wondering if you can give me a little help. Thanks
Nope! I messed around with it some more. Stayed at 40* timing as 60* seemed to just generate more heat. My limit continued to be my batteries. Couldn't get a pack that would push the whole run. Need some of those LiHV packs perhaps.
Try a diffrent rotor trinity offers alot of diffrent rotors look at the tep1146 and tep1153 those would have more guass strength in the magnets to create more power

Agree! That body looks great!
I hope you enjoy yours!
Best DR10 TEAM ASSOCIATED VIDEO yet thanks again good stuff 👏
I appreciate your support!

Ha! Yes, my son was not happy that he was slower!

Hi
Not esc you running? And are you running a sensor esc. 13.5 T engine
Thanks
Bobby
Yes - running a sensored esc.
Looks like a great running system
Thanks!
Running dr10 same motor tuned 3.08 expecting high 2's when completed keep after it 👍
Thanks!
What ESC are you running?
@@RoadsideRC hobby wing just stock car is built for 13.5 blinky class
Thanks!
Just bought the same motor from rotor ron for a slash base car. Whats a good starting point on gears
@@gman2884 I was running 69/33 any where in the mid to low 70's and 29 and up it's all about testing

Thanks for the tip! I will get out and try it more soon!
Hey, I have one of these on the shelf and I’ve been wondering if it would be drift worthy. It’s the 13.5
The motor would do just fine.
@@RoadsideRC what would you set the timing to if you don’t mind me asking? I’m new to drifting and have watched most of your drift vids. Thanks for those and for responding
There still plenty to adjust tires gearing slipper etc.
Yes! This is just the start!
Get a higher c rating battery for more punch off the line. I like to use smc batteries with a 135 c rating.
Thanks! I used to use SMC batteries, perhaps I need to try them again!
I have a stock drag slash i run 3.18 in 2s and 2.78 in 3s !! How do you runnin with stock dr10 combo?
The stock DR10 does really well!
It's slower as it's a 3300kv reedy vs a 3500kv velinion/castle. The reedy is actually better suited for a 2wd slash off-road rig. It has plenty of torque, but doesn't rev up like the castle.
I’m not smart on the drag stuff but we just picked up the drag slash!
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it!

Yeah, going slower just to be in a class is kind of a bummer...I agree
It has a Hobbywing 120A esc in it.
Gosh I want that car so bad‼️
It really does look cool!
I'm curious what the 'timing' marks are changing in the motor. I've never seen an electric motor that has that.

@@RoadsideRC thanks. Good luck
Can this motor go in reverse?
I belive so.
So what class can I run the 5700 castle motor in
It would be in the Outlaw class. Unfortunately, not really competitive.
Oh yes it can be. In outlaw, you run the wheely bar, and depending on suspension setup, tire choice and prep, and gearing, it will fly to the low 2s
I think 40 is your sweet spot, stiffen up that left rear shock a little. Great video 👍🍻
Thanks for the tip!
@@RoadsideRC Yeah man, not a drag racer by any means but it makes sense to me 👍🍻
Can this be used for drifting?
Technically - yes.
However, I would suggest getting a 10.5T motor instead of a 13.5T.
Best I have been able to get is 3.1 at 41 mph. That's 13.5 with 72/32 and 40 degrees timing.
Thanks! I really appreciate that for comparison.
You need to play with the timing between 44 to 46 degrees and play with the gearing any higher and you’ll just waste battery and burn the motor out
Thanks for the tips.
Try a diffrent rotor trinity offers alot of diffrent rotors look at the tep1146 and tep1153 those would have more
guass strength in the magnets to create more power
Thanks for the tip! I bet that would make a huge difference!
Stock vs each of those would be an interesting test!
👀 watching
This RC drag stuff is interesting, but I do think I prefer drifting more.
very good😊👌👍
Thank you!
I run a 75\28
Thanks! Is that with a 13.5T motor?
@@RoadsideRC yes I'm fixing to go try a 69/32 on 60* and and stock tires got about 3.10
I got the punisher fast as I have been is a 2.6 on 3s with reaction tires with no foam
I just got the same motor from rotor ron its supposedly a 13.5 punisher outlaw drag motor. He said to start out with 69/30 on a slash base car
it cogged at 60 can hear it . Set it to 50 and gear it
Yes! It sure did.
Thanks for the feedback.
GREAT :-))))) Cool family :-)
Thank you!
At least it drove straight
Ha! Yes....turns out that is easy when going soo slow! :)
