got so lost with gearing last night, felt comfortable starting at 21/43 on a 2400kv 8s for drag but watching this I think iv got it wrong 😅 fingers crossed I don't go 💥

[@MatrixRC]

Facts good job brother. Run, test temp, check speed, recharge lipos and repeat when changing pinions. Got it! High kv don't like big pinions may actually go slower. Gotta find that sweet spot.

For anyone watching this now castle creations now has Bluetooth datalogs finally available so no laptop needed anymore. Nice video

[@rcusa201]

Oh yeah but there’s issue u caant connect all like me have 30 cars

[@rcbustanut2057]

Awesome info bro, Castle's data logging feature is gold!! Put together with a temp gun during your runs, and you can easily find the max gearing you can safely push on your ride. Once you have a baseline temp, current & rpm reading.. The rest is downhill to achieving that top speed. Good luck with your test runs! 😎👍

[@rcusa201]

Yup I just packed my bad for this season next week it gonna be hot I’m gonna start running soon and I put my snap on temp gun in bag!!

[@bevinsracing]

Great info.. assuming this is speed runs not drag racing correct? I have a hobao hyper VT xlx2 TP 4060cm 2600 I'm shooting for 90mph in 132' Should I start 40 spur 22 pinion on 6s

[@lifeisgood7377]

Hello, great video. I want to set up an Arrma Limitless as a drag car. What's the best TP motor and gearing set up? I've read 1800kv or 2300kv?

[@rcusa201]

2300kv is good the one u see is 2900kv even more RPM

[@carlosrubio7455]

Hola a ver si me puedes ayudar necesito comprar ruedas de alta velocidad en España y no las encuentro

[@rcusa201]

English only bro

[@adamhill1216]

I’m building an Arrma Outcast 6s for bashing/jumping.. I’m not too familiar with TP motors but I would like one for this build. Stock motor is 2050kv, what would you recommend as an upgraded TP motor? And a starting point for pinion size? Thank you for your time🙏

[@rcusa201]

Honesty go castle!!! Or stick with stock motor and upgrade esc the motors r hood just esc sucks

[@reallythough4591]

No joke, that motor kicks butt in bashing and speed runs. Keep the motor

[@letzvisit1661]

Could you recommend a starting point for gearing for my set up. I have a 1/10 speed run build in the works am planning on running 2-3s have a hobby wing max 10 sct 120a esc I’m using a 25t mod1 spur with a rocket 3 7800kv motor. What pinion do you think would be good to get high speeds ? Would a 12t pinion be too low or too high there? Thanks for any tips to help starting out.

[@rcusa201]

High kv low pinion

[@letzvisit1661]

@@rcusa201 ok thank you

[@letzvisit1661]

@@rcusa201 how low do you reckon?

[@sTuPiDiScOoL_]

Decent man trying to achieve 100mph on 2s with the new 4060 cm 2000kv and mamba x 8s 27/40 gearing think it be doable mate I'm optimistic 🙏💚👊

[@cedricgray839]

what do you suggest for a 1515 2200 kv I'm trying to start learning

[@rcusa201]

Depends on ur esc also watch my videos new ones on the felony using the 1717 u should be similar

[@gurtaajdhillon7709]

Hi would that kill mode tp motor be efficient for light on road bashing?

Nope it will over heat quick

Y qué variador me recomienda para TP 3640 CM de 8s ??

[@rcusa201]

Huh

[@carlosrubio7455]

Pleace, esc for TP 3640 cm

[@vincentfranchino2732]

Just put the 4030 3900kv 6s tp motor on a arrma felony. It's geared 16/46 mod 1. What would be better gearing for it? Almost burnt up motor. Motor wires melted at bullet connectors.

[@rcusa201]

Depends on how u ripped the car. Gets u got is not bad but u can go 24/39 I would try that also did u use the fans

[@reallythough4591]

3900kv on a car that weighs 11.7 lbs is making motor work too hard. Problem with felony is the fit is too tight. There isn't enough room, and it's almost maxed out from factory. Fire team, on the other hand, has wider chassis, more room, and you can swap the drive line from felony right in. I did. Issue then becomes a arms and width. Felony arms and shaft change and turnbuckle change makes car much straighter at speeds once you slam it. That 2050 is plenty fast enough to hear to the moon, but esc will need to change around 140.

[@reinierwelgemoed8171]

What TP motor would You recommend for 8S Limitless?

[@rcusa201]

I use 1717 castle did 144 with it

[@zerrickdracing6784]

You will need 4s fans and you can use any tp motor from 2200 and lower on kv

[@benitobento123456789]

TP motor 2 pole brushless 7000kv with ESC I have to use?

[@rcusa201]

Depends on ur car truck?

[@pfunk72]

I noticed that this explanation is with a higher to spur and starting with a small pinion and working your way up. What I don't understand is why people go with a smaller spur and a high tooth pinion can u explain please.

[@rcusa201]

High kv need small pinion cuz u got big rpm and low kv big pinion to build up the rpm

[@dadon197922]

How about a 2400kv what would be a good gearing for drag racing to start

[@slick408]

How about basher motors for 1/5 outcast 8s?

[@rcusa201]

Put on 800kv motor with xlx2 and start with 27pinion and throw on 39 spur and work ur way up with pinions

[@reallythough4591]

I tried a tp7700 2 pole on a carbon drag slash. Was expecting 80+ in under 2 sec, ended up under 60 around 3 sec. I wanted mamba mknster x, but rep convincede to go with copperhead 10(crawler/)esc. I just switched to tp5500kv, but same esc. How do i gwt the performance out of 7700?

[@rcusa201]

Low gear try 34 spur

[@reallythough4591]

I switched to a tp5500kv scm. Problem solved now. Had to add 16oz lead to front bumper, but she flat out boogies now. Thanks.

[@press4258]

What gearing you suggest for the 5670cm 2510kv tp

[@rcusa201]

That’s mid ranger u can’t go tooo low or too high I would say start 27/36

What's your opinion on belt drive gearing mesh? I've seen them on drag arrma more then bashers

[@rcusa201]

I got one I did small video I didn’t upload it but not for me even if I do drag rather stick with gears

[@zerrickdracing6784]

That 16 with that 45 would be pretty fast more like 75 or 80 with a typhon 6s

I did 127 with 29/36

Are you still using TP motors?

Yup and castle

[@buffernickel]

@@rcusa201 do you have a recommendation on a TP motor for a fireteam for strictly bashing. Possibly an 8s motor running on 6s?

[@joema3830]

1850kv motor 37p 34s. Ok?

[@rcusa201]

Oh yeah u can even go lower on the spool one step at a time it’s low KV so it can handle it but this is good start even 34/34 wount be good start
