Bigger Wheels = More Powaaa!

[@robertruiz5417]

We need more videos like these

[@Tejaye777]

Putting on larger wheels is like gearing up. It's like putting on a bigger pinion gear or similar to it in that you get a better top speed. Don't know how it affects acceleration, whether to acceleration reduces but top end speed increases like with the use of a larger pinion gear.

[@GregSupe]

Couldn't agree more. Acceleration doesnt really matter much when doing too speed runs. Just need a bunch of road to get it up there.

@@GregSupe True bro. Love your video. The Vendetta seems to be a lot of fun.

[@GregSupe]

@@Tejaye777 Thanks man, its a ton of fun. Guess you can call it a "budget" speed run car

[@CRIMSONTYPHOON_YT]

​@@GregSupeis it possible to fit the arrma limitless wheels on the vendetta? also does it rub the body or is there enough space?

[@FrankBoston]

Great video. A note to potential Vendetta owners: even without upgrading anything, this is THE surface you need to run the car. Perfectly smooth isn't possible, but as close to it as you can get, and a lot of room. The lot I run in is over 1/4 mile. The car is 100% on road. Doesn't take much of a bump to ruin the body and possibly more. It's a badass car. Just very niche. SPEED. Keep it up bro! New sub

[@GregSupe]

Its definitely designed as an road basher/ speed car. Very stable and loads of fun out the box. Thanks for the sub

[@rccarsandmusic2641]

Need the speed wing, great runs

[@GregSupe]

Yea i did swap it off and got up to 115mph. With a better power system this thing is a monster.

[@rccarsandmusic2641]

@@GregSupe I bought 2 at the 199 sale and bought an Infraction mega and put the Vendetta power in it. Have to adjust the slipper for brushless, center support and BLX motor mount, it rips. I also put the Duratrax Bandido C2 on the Mega drives so good!

[@GregSupe]

Heck yeah man! They were a steal of a deal at that price. Sounds like you got a good setup

[@mortonbeard2240]

Build an air dam for the front end. I used a strip of plastic and duct tape. Use exhaust tape to guard the body from wheel rub. I see the GRP's on Amazon at a good price. Are they fakes??

The ones frlm the grp store on amazon are legit. amzn.to/3cx7Y2K

@@andrataylor6070 you may get away with not cutting if running it in straight line but cornering you will need to trim for sure

@@GregSupe Hey Bro. I was wondering if you had to trim the body for the bigger wheels and tires?

[@GregSupe]

@@blakelove4058 I'm rocking it without trimming but it does scrub, so maybe it rubbed off the edges anyway. So possibly trimming is necessary

[@EdgarST562]

been looking for spur gear that's not 50t and above. any recommendations for smaller spur gears?

[@GregSupe]

Maaan these are so hard to find for some reason. So what I ended up doing is modifying the slipper clutch to use the metal gear from traxxas. Built a spool out of the clutch assembly. That way you can also run whatever gears you want and you are not limited to the mod .8 stock size. This is the gear im currently running, hope this helps.

Yea 6s. Got it up to 104mph using the stock motor before swapping over to the 2050kv from the Felony. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHvbYqyDfMalhbs

[@c.b9693]

@@GregSupe would love to see you install a smaller spur and see what speed you get. I Wanna buy one and convert it to 6s using the firma 150 but i here/see them cutting out under heavy load if your setup doesn't cut out ill copy it or if it does ill us a mamba x esc or something

[@GregSupe]

@@c.b9693 Yea I got a ton of cut outs using the smaller motor. I haven't gotten any cutouts since I changed to the 2050kv BUUUT, that's not a bad thing because it gives you those safety measures incase you are over volting the system. I'd say if you are purchasing an esc then get the mamba x, you can push that further than the spectrum. I'll test out some gearing on the next couple vids though 👍

[@fleejuuheard6904]

I’m running 24/34 mod 1 120c 5500mah battery and I’m cutting out stock motor and esc

Nice Bro. It moves well with the GRP’s. They don’t look too bad on the Vendetta. Good fit!🤣👊🏽🔥

Bro u would see well over a 100 mph with a 46 spur with that pinion it’s such a lovely build bro fair play

Easily bro. I might covert to mod1 gears now and send it again. Just kinda weary of it flipping so probably add some weight to the front of the car too.

Great video man you’re awesome buddy I got my vendetta all stocked with the 26T gear and I can’t get more then 1 pass with it .It keeps cutting off my car how can that be fixed is there a way to bypass that

[@GregSupe]

Right on! If you are fully stock then you will need to be extra careful on your throttle pulls. Get a long enough road and ease into the throttle. If the esc senses too much load it will cut out. Or you could just get the 150a esc and send it to 100mph 🤣

[@bonbonesrc3968]

Thx buddy for the fast reply With the 150a esc it will no longer cut off ?

[@GregSupe]

@@bonbonesrc3968 It will cut off but gives you a ton more room for power. You will need to run it at your own risk though since you will be sending a ton more power to the motor, so temps will rise fast. Heres the vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHvbYqyDfMalhbs
