Does just one LiPo battery make it run faster? Or do you need two? Also, do you need to change the pinion gear for one LiPo?

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

One 3s will make it faster but two nimh packs in series together would be more juice than one 2s pack. No pinion change needed.

[@martinthenetherlands4638]

Nice video. 2S was running nice but i think 3S is to fast for that little car 😕 it's starting to fly 😂

[@koolnestea]

in case anyone wondering 2s lipo is slower than NiMH in series, 2s lipo only 8.4 volts fully charged and the NiMH in series is 18 volts fully charged, the first pass or 2 with the NiMH should be faster than the 3s lipo but drops right away where the 3s lipo is about the same throughout and has more punch. The high speed pinion is actually slower as well as its only meant to be used to keep the electronics cooler using the higher voltage of the NiMH in series. If not doing speed runs, 2s lipo is plenty for offroading, plus will break less lol, Sounded like he stripped the diffs which its also recommended to shim the diffs. especially with the torque running 3s lipo has. Fun to drive none the less but id pick up a slash over this. Breaks too much 😂

[@MaxSkiAndBike]

This was with the completely stock pinion gear? Not the 50+ one?

[@tenncutt]

Stock gearing he said in the beginning

[@robertcousins2227]

Had an original version back in 2010 when they first cane out. Little advice follow the gearing chart in the book for best results. You run the risk of burning up the esc if you don't. Best speeds and power I achieved was with a 3s lipo and the and Castles mamba micro pro ecs but once again gearing is key. Almost lost my whole truck when the ecs went up in flames. Best solution I have found so far is running the Traxxas Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor (3500Kv) on the stock ecs. This seems to have cut down the over heating issues and gained torque at the same time. Never got a top speed before I had an untimely collision with a stop sign that wiped out the entire front end and chassis.

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks for all the great info. Yeah, I have noticed that the esc and motor get pretty warm. Got to watch out for those road signs😂

😊👍Give aways.... give aways... Those nim packs may be toast if you don't constantly give them some charge every couple weeks they self drain fast and if they are not maintained properly and left without charging the voltage of the cells goes so low that when you try recharging them they don't work good no more because the cell voltage most likely got so low they reversed and then the packs toast when that happens.

We have a bad geese problem in our neighborhood and I want to get something and slap a taxidermied raccoon on it to chase the geese. Not sure if the 71054-1 is big enough to be riding around in thick grass, almost feel like it'd get stuck...

Sounds like you need a Stampede. It is high enough that grass doesn't hold it back. Brushed does good and should be enough for what you are looking to do with it. The 4x4 is also the better option for powering thru grass. Hope that helps.

[@romper4444]

Of course she's faster on NiMH, ur talking 14.4v vs 2s lipo at 7.4, good nickel metal cells will be even faster than a 3s lipo fresh off the charger as they are only 12.4v(full charge) good NiMH packs at 12 cells will show 16v off the charger, they won't hold that long under load but it will be faster for a min or 2 over 3s lipo! Now what will really break the sound barrier is a pair of 2s lipos in series for 4s at 16.8v, drop the pinion 2 teeth so you don't smoke the 3sc and she'll run 60mph!

[@arturos.l.2248]

The 2 NMHIs do not hit 14.4v because the ESC is setup to prevent that from overheating the motor. 3s will be faster because more power actually makes it to the motor

[@WeaponRK]

Was wondering if the c rating on the 2s might have something to do with the lower top speed

Could be.

The ticking was most likely your back differential stripping

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Sweet. I still haven't checked it out. That is where I will start.

@@BuyitBreakitFixit yep, was about to say that, I had the same sound and that fixed it, the teeth on the ring gear were round. You should also loosen your slipper clutch a bit if you wanna protect your differentials and reduce the back flips. for the diff, chances are you'd be better with part number 7079 than 7078 since the inside of the diff doesn't grind as much and pinion does

@@JF743 thanks so much for the info. I am going to pull this thing out and get it going. I will get those parts you mentioned. Appreciate it.

[@JF743]

@@BuyitBreakitFixit actually, you should only need the ring and pinion and not the whole assembly, but you'll have to open your diff, clean every gear and put some grease in it and around it. Here's an in-depth video about the process! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ_UZ4OHZ9N3psk
