HPI Micro RS4 MORE VOLTS = MORE SPEED

[@TapioBlue]

Sweet, just dug out my Micro RS4 from over 15 years ago. On channel 73 lol, I think I need a new radio.

I know right. .. We're driving vintage RC cars. Kinda cool...

[@inventions47]

Have you videos of this running ? All the best. And thanks

[@thisoldmanchannel]

Not yet... Still have a couple of cool models to video as I'm pulling them out of storage... I'm getting there slowly...Really appreciate the interest and your comment...Thank you for watching!

Lithium is the only way to go. I have one that does upwards of 60 mph. It's only running on a two cell 7.4V LiPo with 35 amps of current. I put a video up yesterday.

[@thisoldmanchannel]

I know man, I'm like from the Prehistoric PreLithiumus Period. Cool man, I'm going to check out your video!!!

[@JaysRandomnessChannel]

@@thisoldmanchannel it took me a while to make the lithium switch also... solely because of the FIRE videos I use to see here on KZbin! 😂

[@thisoldmanchannel]

100% Agreed... I'm making the switch seeing how many lithium products we already have in our households.

This is pretty awesome.

Hey John, thank you for your comment.... Really appreciate it... I'll be posting some more videos as I've got some nice old RC cars and boats... Love RC man, but lately I've been kinda dreaming about drones. Thank you for watching!

Really like what you did with your micro rs4, I just got one question for you what speed control are you using so you can run that 9.6v battery?

[@thisoldmanchannel]

@@benbetancourt9375 Hey Ben, used an LRP speed controller.. I'll check my files and see if I can give you a model number.. Thank you so much for your comments man. Thank you for watching!

[@thisoldmanchannel]

LRP Quantum Micro Reverse: Voltage Input 4.8 - 8.4 volt, 4 - 7 Cells, 25A Rated Current. They made a 4 models with the top of the line being the Quantum Pro Reverse which could handle the same number of cells but at a current of 75A and motor winds down the 7 turns. Ah, the good ole days...

[@benbetancourt9375]

Oh wow I didn't know that speed control could handle 9.6v, I got a old LRP Quatum competition 2 esc that is small enough to fit my micro rs4, I think I'm gonna try what you did thanks for the info & let's see some rc boat videos that would be cool
