1s lipo+12thscale+13.5= sucks! whats the deal?
well, i just ran my 12th scale last nite after switching over to a 1s lipo. all i gotta say is, that sucks! its freakin slow! no rip at all. i am running a tekin rs smc 50c battery and a novak balistic 13.5. all i know is it was alot faster with nimh batteries, no, it was ALOT better. i am prolly missing the setup. i knew it wouldnt have the same perf as my nimh batts, but man this is really bad. i was running a 75 spur and a 39 pinion, its as big a pinion as i had with me. motor was a cool 110 degrees. i tried raising boost, lowering static timing, tried turbo, but i feel there isnt enough voltage to make any of that stuff make any diff. am i way off on the gearing? suggestions?
