All it takes is for one guy at a track to run a new motor and if it's good seems like we all want one.
The second I get a REAL date I will post it (and it won't be on a Tuesday). The faster I get test results to Viper the quicker they can (if they have to) make adjustments. It's all on me at this point.

and what is your preference salad between the 2 and 4 poles? i know you mentioned that the 2 pole felt smoother, but how about power? are you having to gear it different than the 4 pole?

I've not seen anyone complain about Hobbywing. Maybe it's under the radar by being cheap and doing what it needs to do.

Wow good idea, wonder if they would let me do the can design???

The tester I have is 3mm, I will suggest doing both but it's really not up to me. It's up to you guys to provide enough feedback to warrant them making the 5mm option.

We talk about that today and regardless of what I think people still want the 4 pole. Sensorless the 2 pole is smoother than 4 pole, hands down just as fast and just as much torque. When testing the CC1410 I was 18/40 - top speed was 37mph, with the 2 pole Viper geared 13/40 I was 32 to start and 35mph towards the end of the run (but Viper is a higher KV). I was over geared with the CC and with the 2 pole I was geared what I felt was conservative. I know people don't care about speed but it's always good to test and provides me with some numbers to start working with. Now it's 4 pole testing time.

I feel that unless you are targeting 2wSC as well, 3mm shaft is totolly unwarrented. Please make it 5mm.

Thats all I run in all 5 of my off road and my 2 onroad cars, never one problem and they work awsome. The xerun 120a works wicked in this truck, and its only 85 bucks at hobby parts, just as good if not better then the rx8 and more then half the price !!

3.0 rate Orange springs
3.3 rate Silver springs
3.6 rate Green springs


FRONT
3.6 rate Green springs
3.9 rate Blue springs
4.2 rate Black springs
4.5 rate Purple springs

I recommend the Black in front and Orange in back

Do u have a xerun 150a? Just wondering how it compares to 120a? I have 120a and been excellent on 3 trucks. Was gonna buy either another 120a or get a 150a for backup.

I had a 150a 1/8th scale one, imo the 120a is plenty and works beauty, and is half the weight, and you can use it in pretty much any class of car or truck when you want.

Check this out you cant beat this price.

To all you BCE chassis runners out there! Are you guys running the chassis with the chassis mud gards or dust gurads on the side of the chassis?
I run at a indoor clay track so dont have to worry about the mud or dusty dirt.
Thanks!
