Today the little Redcat Lightning achieved glory by hitting 43 MPH on a brushed setup, but is it enough to beat OMGRC?

Sweet runs bro 👍🏾 I was close, I guessed 45 👊🏾✌🏾
Me too. I has 50 in it, I know it.
I do like your personal car looks good In the background
I like how there's no mention of a built in failsafe in the receiver ... I guess they sell more parts that way....
I think most reviewers have failsafes, don’t they? I’ve never had a runaway with an electric vehicle. Nitro on the other hand..... ha ha.
@@10thScaleGarage I happened to notice a failsafe button while piecing my str back together ...After it decided to run full speed into a curb.....
Nice run bro!!! Will have my video up late tomorrow. I hope I don’t smoke mine but with have xt60 plug. Lol love the smoke 😎🤘🏻
AHH! I'm nervous. I was hoping to get it faster, but oh well. Good luck!
10th Scale Garage 43MPH is fast on brushed motor. 😎✊🏻
I agree with Joe, that's not shabby at all, well done! 😁👍🏼 I'm a bit late to the challenge, but I might join in later this year when I have a bit more time, lol... 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That's pretty killer man, good to know you can get to the 40's mph wise, easily, on a brushed motor set up. Cool vid bro 👍💯 can't go wrong here, she's booking it!!
I know! Not bad for a $150 drift car. Haha.
Love the Mazda 😎🚨🤘🏻
Thanks, bro! I want to build one in 10th scale and race them. haha.
10th Scale Garage That would be cool! I carry Tamiya MX-5 Miata kit I know it’s not same Gen. ✌️
Mod 1 gears!! They fit.
Did it to my tornado on road, same car.
The car will SCREAM........
34t pinion with a 34t pinion as a spur👍
I would love to see it, especially Brushed on ✌s
Good call!
I was wondering when you said Tamiya connector. Lol
I melted them on 6 cell ni cads. First thing I changed when I built the Grasshopper to deans.
Car looked pretty good 👍
Yeah. She got a little melty. Haha. Now I know better. Lesson learned.
Oh! A gen1 MX5! The man has good taste.
Haha. Thank you.
Nice runs.
Really a good effort! I wonder if something like a Bandit or Rustler would do better where the motor is sticking out of the back, effectively giving it better airflow/cooling. Also, their bigger tires would probably help as you suggested. Would a bigger pinion help with a brushed setup where brushed motors don't seem to like high RPMs? Maybe that could get you more speed on a 2s battery so that you don't have to go up to a more damaging 3s?
Yes, yes and yes. Haha. I put the biggest pinion that would physically fit on the thing. I ran a 35 tooth pinion over the stock 27 tooth. Bigger wheels would basically gear it up even more, so you could (in theory) get a rustler to go faster. 2 wheel drive is going to be a lot harder to keep planeted, and you only have 2 wheels putting down the power, but yes. Everything you’re saying is true. There are some 10th scale brushed carpet racers that do 50mph easy. This challenge was for this chassis specifically.
@@10thScaleGarage maybe you could try using graphite on the commutator (spelling?) as a dry conductive lubricant? Might reduce friction and heat that way. While still conductive, not sure how good the conductivity is though. Just a thought.
coo run,nice little car
Thanks Duke!
Is that miata new to you? Love the videos! Always good entertainment.
Thanks bro! I’ve owned that Miata for 4 years now. Just got it out of storage 2 weeks ago and I’ve been daily-ing it.
@@10thScaleGarage awesome!
Got a 550 can redcat 2wd on 5000nimh 8.4v flying fish 320ampesc 15kg servo mostly zd racing. 64t spur on 27 pinion. Love what you do
27 tooth? Dang. I bet it ripppsssss
@@10thScaleGarage so funny lol
How fast can you go with a brushed motor in an RC car??? Well the official world record sat for years at 108mph. This was using NiCad batteries and a brushed motor. Since then Nimh batteries and then LiPo batteries have come to the hobby. The LiPo batteries give tons' more Amperage (Torque) vs Nimh (about 35 amps max). These guys were spending big bucks to get the most out of their brushed motors.
Today it is just a matter of how much voltage (horsepower) you can put to your brushed motor before everything smokes. Good luck, luv the vid.
By the way you need to get rid of the Tamiya (white) plug. We where melting those with brushed motors and NiCads. We switched to direct soldering, not recomended for Lipos.. Deans connectors work the best for your situation
Yeah. I melted that sucker.
Nice bro
Thanks!
I’ve never in my entire life seen anybody put water on electrical components
There’s a first time for everything
You did good! But you learned the hard way $$$. Next time use the highest amperage ESC That you can run/afford, with that big 3cell batt. Minimum 80 to 100 amps. You should be closer to 50MPH with enough straightaway. Find a place at least twice the length of what you have been using.
Indoor really have that much in it. The ESC was one I had just hanging around, and the motors were about $20 a pop. The front suspension was maybe like $35? I have less than $250 in everything
New sub enjoying 👊🏻👍🏻
Thanks! Glad you found it!
I got my bandit at 43.8 mph all stock and stock NIMH battery by just lowering the suspension with 12T550 Titan moter 22T pinion gear 83T spur gear........
Dang, for real? My bandit drag car does 31 in 132 feet with that same setup!
Could you find out what the tires are you have anything that cheap that works for this is good enough for me
There’re just regular 12mm 10th scale touring car wheels and tires.
Am I the only one watching this and my redcat weight more than 2kg🤣
I spy a miata!
it's an MX5, haha JDM AF
I just got one a month and a half ago put the brushless motor in 39mph on 2s need a real gps model I was using a app on my phone and ducked taped the car
We’ve all been there.
got 50 mph on my car brushed burned the motor up
I think my fastest brushed rig is about 8mph?
Haha. A crawler, then?
@@10thScaleGarage yep
Where did you get the rubber tire set up?
Amazon
Why the Music playing while your Talking???
Clearly, I have no idea what I’m doing.
I’ve got an old Tamiya motor that’s 4070kv and on a 19t pinion and 61t spur, it does 34mph🤷♂️ wonder what it would be like with a 35t pinion🤔🤔🤔🤔 and that’s on a 6 cell 4200mah nimh😂😂🤫
Only one way to find out!!! Send it brother!
10th Scale Garage 😂😂 the problem is, they’re really rare, and they’re worth a fair amount of money🥶
I need help with my redcat lightning
Send me a message on Instagram or Facebook
What wheels and tires are you running?
Just some cheep ones that I got from Amazon.
I'll put the Grasshopper up against it anyway😂😂
Well maybe the Challenger. Lol
I’ve got a video idea involving the challenger. Get in touch with me.
@@10thScaleGarage heck yeah I'm in Buddy. Lol
Actually haven't ran the Challenger since the last night we ran together. Lol
What brushless motors and esc combo would you recommend for this car?
Hobbywing Max 10
what tires? link please
Just cheap rubber tires from Amazon
Change the esc
It’s fine. Still works great!
33T pinion made the Kyosho Fazer with it's low 2400KV hit 40mph.
I have a fazer MK2! It’s quick.
