Hope you enjoyed my first attempt at 70mph! This thing is a beast! So stable at speed can definitely see myself trying for the 100mph top speed! Have any of you managed it yet? If so what setup where you running? Best way to get there etc? Also i mentioned in the video i would be fitting hoons and i probably will but i realise they will be a smaller diameter which may result in a slower speed than the KATAR wheels on this setup. Gearing up seems like the way to go.. Hopefully we can do better next time. Happy but also disappointed at the same time :(

@@beyondRC I never got into Nitros! Always seemed abit antisocial to me! I was actually into crawlers most of the time. I had a brushless buggy that was really cheap but heaps of fun so hence my reasoning to get this one!

I got back into it about the same time you did. And 70 mph was my personal best, using the police radar trailer on my street. I built it from a slider, a lady in a Cadillac ran over it on purpose as it was sitting by a curb to stay out of the way and I said there goes $500 down the drain (just stuck new batteries in) by the way. I got lucky and she ran over it rear shock tower to front lifting her car up and said " I didn't see it". Then how do you know what I'm talking about?🤔 She didn't check her car, didn't say sorry, soooo rebuild again. Not one penny spent to repair, as of course it's better to load up on screws when you buy an rc, just days of down time wrenching and replaced bent or broke screws. Straighten the front shock tower and lower hinge pin. Now at about 85-90mph with a 25/46. Now with 28 pinion and 38 tooth spool. Start on 4s and work up to make sure all is good. Need to check my speed. Nice run🤙🤙👍🤜💯🔥had she ran over it sideways, everything would have been destroyed.

I think so a good set of on road tyres would be great such as the dboots hoons but they are smaller in diameter so unless I gear up a little it will actually be slower but gain a lot more grip. So I am now looking into a lot of possibilities for the coming months!

Get the Arrma Limitless roller and put an 8s system in it.

100mph is easy m8. You have the place all you need is the gear and a little luck. Maybe try some hoon 42/100 tires all around. Install a castle cap pack. And i think you can hit 100mph with same electronics. My limitless hit 140 first hit.. castle 1717 motor mambaX. Then i wrecked it trying to do a repeat. Lol tire blew. Good luck!

@@beyondRC when it comes to speed there is only one thing you need to understand.. checklist! Lol... my friend put it this way once. “Speed runs is like going on a hot date with a bombshell for the first time while being a virgin” lol.. “you only get laid when everything goes right” hahaha for me personally what made the difference in managing my cost per pull was getting a high pov and dji fpv. Im returning to the car hobby after ascending the accolades of “fpv drone freestyle.” I bring a lot of fpv freestyle best practice back with me to rediscover my long lost love for rc. This year alone i picked up every single 6s 8s Arrma got reconnected with my kyosho Inferno GT this time electric. 2 xmaxxes so that the wife and kid can come along and play. Been doing bashing (my original love) and tempting faith (my horror story with rc 5k dream build went up to smoke the main reason i stepped away from rc cars) To make a short story long. What I realize about the drone and rc car community is this. We need to start talking more with each other. Because I sincerely feel we can bring good things to each others passion. The telemetry and black box tuning will change the rc car community. Which i notice some of the hardcore rc car guys are taking a dab in. Another part of this evolution i forecast is some sort of “flight controller” or “driver aid” you can see this with the esc smart function. I think a drone guy right now as we speak is building a driver assist system that can control all 4 wheels dynamically to provide the best possible driver experience. Just like real cars today. Its going to be able to lower or raise itself and have dynamic electronic dampers.. a esc cannot account for all of that we need a “driver assist” computer. Anyways cheers budd good chat sorry for the long 10 page later

I have hit 64 mph with the stock pinion with a 6s 5200 50c battery pack. The issue I ran into when trying to install the 20t pinion is the bolts to the stock pinion are on so tight that I stripped them. Not sure how to get them out now which is gonna lead to a trip to the hobby shop. Incredibly well built powerful machine though even in stock form!

From what I've read others say, anything over 20t and you'll definitely need a good fan on the motor and you'll be limiting your self to a few speed runs before it starts getting too hot. People have been putting 26t on them but I don't think the system can handle it.

It would be nice to share motor temps on the speed gear.
