Now the Hyper is almost ready to race I'm wondering?? Anyone run 3S
batteries in their Hyper??

Also if you are, are you running a 2S plus a 1S which is what I'd like to
try instead of a 3S...

This would be with a Tekin 1900 motor..

Thanks again guys...

I have had a few 3S packs in mine with a MMM 2200kv... its not bad but i would think 4S would be better for outdoor... 3S would work well with a tight indoor track.

I'm thinking a 3S on the 702 indoor in vegas, very tight 60 X 80 track. I'm
wondering did you buy 3S's or take a 2S and add a 1S?? Which is what I'd
like to do...

what kind of one cell are you going to add?

I went to 702 one night and I would bet the hot setup would be a 550 SC combo on 2S, or even a Castle SCT system on 2S. The castle system would get it done for cheap, be light and have enough power for that track IMHO. then you could use the blue springs too.

The MMP would be a better ESC as the SCT has a weight limit of 6.5 lbs. I would think with a fan it will do.

So if I'm following you I should use a 10th scale Tekin 4WD motor in my
Hyper with a 2S I run in my SCT's??? Sorry but I refuse to run anything
but Tekin since 1983...

I'm not following the fan thing though?

I don't know, I'm just asking for advice...

if you have that 2s and the ESC and motor from your SCT why not try it? how much more does the 9e weight over your SCT?

My AE SC10 is pretty darn light & the 10.5 turn is pretty tiny...

Your 9 felt Great that small time i did play with it, On 3S its fine on the infield but the straight is where it showed its weakness....Castle has boost/timing advance stuff now don't they ?





that's a Really Bad idea, Cells condition themselves over time and the last thing you want to be doing is adding a Single Fresh cell to a used 2 cell.

Hobbyking packs are cheap enough to avoid this all together.

Chuck, with the motor you're running, just get a couple of these:

They're light, inexpensive and will easily last a 10min. main. Plus, since the company is located in Arizona, you'll probably get them very quickly.

I apologize in advance..... I am sure it is IN this thread...just too much to read right now...... quick question.

Hyper 9e .. whats the best combo for the Mamba Monster:

OCRC and Westcoast? (both socal indoor tracks for those that you don't know)

After doing "my" quick skimming reading, it seems 2650 + 3s battery.
and a 14/40 setup?

Yes?

Happy Holidays.

If you are going to run indoor only

Get the MMP and use a Tekin 1700, this allows you to use sensor setup which is MUCH smoother.

Or run a MMM with a Tekin 1900



I have finished my Hyper 9E and should have a write up with some team tips this week!

Sort of. The SCT system I mentioned is Castle Creations. So if your strictly Tekin then the 550 SC motor and an RX8, I don't know if the RS Pro could handle the load?

My point was bang for the buck by far the cheapest way to try it would be the Castle SCT system at 119.00. With a Tekin you are looking at 300+.

Then there is the situation with gearing, the Tekin SC motor being 5000Kv 2 pole it needs lower gearing than you can get on a hyper. The Castle SCT is a 3800 4 pole motor can be over geared with zero timing and would work in the 15 tooth pinion range.

Im not going to be there until the 18th of February to try it but that's what im bringing to try out.

MMP? really?

I shall check out the MMM+1900 suggestion.
