    After running the same gearing and KV setups I will probably stay with the 39T limitless spool as the 45T would get really hot if I was running hard or trying to top out. However even if it was over 100 F outside already, I was surprised how well it handled the 45T. Using the spool I didn't feel like the loss of speed from dropping several teeth was enough that I really noticed. I have since stopped worrying about power and more about strength, I want to hit the 100 club. 100mph and 100ft jump, maybe in the future I will even do it with the same car LOL!
    Thanks for posting!

      Oh since you just said this in your video. Yeah, get some ear plugs, I did and im never looking back. If you wanna MAD Science it because your broke or bored you can take a blow torch and very SLOWLYISH... lol... start heating up the diff so the silicon already in it, after most of the moisture evaporates, will solidify and you'll have a very similar substance in viscosity and the only difference I found was the ear plugs have a sticky tack feeling and start hard then loosen up after being run while the dried diff fluid has a very consistent feel the entire time after a short warm up.

      My temps haven't gone over 120F with the 43t. Now it is Fall here so when I was out it was only 22C. I won't know now till next summer if I can keep the 43t on.

      Where did you get the 39T spur?

    • @fastnbashrc1630
      @fastnbashrc1630 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@MrCovain apologies for not understanding you question and feel free to elaborate if I answer it inappropriately. From Arrma as it is the original "Spool", not Spur, that comes with the limitless along with a 29T "Speed Spool". Both gears have an 8mm bore and accept a locking pin through the center. I tested running each of these as pinions on the 8s Kraton with good results depending on the goals and demand.
      Hopefully this helps and wasn't too much rambling.

      @@fastnbashrc1630 no, not at all. So what are you running for your spur? Sorry for not understanding you. I have been trying to find a 39T or 35t spur gear or will any pinion gear (the right size of course) serve as a spur? The spur seems to have the D shape and therefore wouldn't need a set screw to hold it like a pinion does

    I would like to buy a Castle system for the power. That being said bought a couple of Caslte ESCs and have had very bad experiences. I've had Max 8, Max 6 and Max 5 in my Rustler VXL with no problem. So for safety I would stick with Hobbywing. Love their performance but I don't want to be worrying everytime I use my ESC if it would work.

    Perfect timing on this video. I just finished experimenting with the motors that I have and I will be needing something 🤔 I wonder how that system would preform with stock tires. I would think you would cut some weight that way, I wonder if it would bring the wheelies back. How did you like the power HD servo? I love it, it works really well on my K8S. If you haven't already, crank it up to 8.4 💪

So do you suggest to go for that upgrade 800kv or it should be best to buy again the OEM? Note that i don't want to change ESC or SERVO for keeping cost as low as possible.

I tried 39/39 gearing when I had the 800kv motor. It was OK, but I prefer the 1100kv motors since they don't need very tall gearing to get things going.
