Default 19T brushes

EddieO

what brushes are you running/supplying in your 19t reedy style quad mags 767's XXX's 4499's for outright performance?

what is the best 19t motor for indoor carpet racing? atlas19T? V2? or still C2 and Reedy 19T

Everyone here in england seems to run the V2, which is very high torque, but i can never get this geared right though, to get any speed out of it!

Default Team brood dynos

what power supplies do you use for your dyno's?

I have a CS dyno which I run off a 7amp maplin power supply for the 12V supply.

The motors to test run off a normal RC 6 cell battery pack as I understand the robotronic is similar, you get very inconsistant results this way as the packs quickly go flat.

I was thinking of getting a power supply to replace the RC batt pack to get more consistant results.

I have heard that you need something like a 100amp supply for the motor as it can draw that much on spool up?

what do you think?

for overall performance the 767 are great. For that really fast one run the 4499 give the best overall power.I havent run the V2 19 or the atlas but he reedy 19t and the C2 are great motors. The V2 can you have th gear pretty high like the Reedy can from what I am told around 5.9 to5.4

Depending on the order, it can take up to 10 days to ship.....just depends what it is....

Basic stocks, batteries, tools, etc.....all ship fairly quick, usually 2-5 days...

Mods or bigger orders take a little longer to fill.

Please remember EVERYTHING is made to order.....we just don't slam 100 stocks together when the case comes in....we literally build each motor to order for the customer....so you get a motor built to YOUR specs that is freshly built when you get it.....

As for dyno's......we use the Robi or the Turbodyno.....just depends.

The Robi, you HAVE to use a smaller 12v battery.....Turbodyno, we use a 45 amp Rivergate.

For the CS, we stopped using it for that very same reason....you CANNOT use a powersupply instead of the battery....it would have to be HUGE and even then, according to CS, it still won't work right. To help with the capacity issue, just wire up a ANOTHER 6 cell pack in parrallel....this will increase the capacity, but will not increase the voltage. You will need to find a charger able to charge a pack like that though.

All the 19t motors out are competive......the main issue is gearing with them.....they all gear pretty different, so make sure you are paying close attention to the gearing. I prefer the Reedy Motor myself, as its the easiest to tune, along with have VERY good magnets....

I use 767 on the Reedy, I think they work better than 4499 on it.....on the C2, either 4499 or the Finishline.....V2 element, I would use the Sprint Edge, Element 767, and the Atlas 767 or finishline.

if i want to stay competitive how many runs would you suggest before cutting the com and if the brushes still look good and have the original serrations on them can i still run them? this if for mainly stock and 19t motors.

Well, if its a big race.....I would cut the comm every run....and replace the brushes, though sometimes the old brushes will still work fine, even at the bigger level. Just make sure you clean them well and give a light skim on the comm.

At club racing....you can go 3-4 runs easy without cutting the comm....

But, believe it or not, cutting the comm more often actually will make the motor last longer. As the comm degrades because arching, brushes, etc....the damage will get exponentially worse as you continue to run the motor. So when you go to cut it, it will actually take a deeper cut to get the comm trued.....

A bunch of smaller cuts are better, not to mention you will get a better running motor....

Default 1/12th Scale Armatures for V2

Hi EddieO

I am in the UK. We have our first 1/12th mod national this weekend.
Colin at CS racing set me up with a Brood 9*1 V2 motor and an additional 10*2 "1/12th" Armature.

It has "1/12"th engraved in it.

Can I ask what the difference is with the 1/12th Brood arms. Do you use a different arm stack? Wind it in a different way? ...

I rebuilt the V2 with softer springs and it now has the 10*2 arm in it so any info would be helpfull..... also where would you time it as a start?

Best regards

Mark
