Try an FPV drone battery, they are usually around 70-100C easily, and 1300-1500mah, so it will be lighter and way more powerful

[@VaLULrant]

Or just any 3s that's not trash. 100C is literally the worst 3s I own all my "performance" ones are 150C.

[@DriftomaniacsRC]

Well done on the new PB, I've been playing around with the timing and as you advance it, it seems to come alive at the very top end, just when you think it's maxed out if seems to come alive. That's what I've found. Only getting into the 'power band' at the higher revs. Also the low turn rocket motors can take out the esc when on 2-3s...more to follow

[@justinjones5281]

He has a foam pad underneath to force the air over the car. Essentially you need the least amount of space between the ground and the chassis. An easier way is to just put a foam splitter on the front but if the car gets a draft or turns slightly the sides get exposed and your airborne

How do you like the 10.5 T rocket motor?

[@wh112978]

@@venture7o7 it was toooo much for that little car! Lol never found out how fast it was because it would just sling the axles out. I have put the setup into a traxxas boat, but that was a disaster that ended with me swimming in a cold lake! Haven't found a good vehicle for that motor yet, but I haven't given up yet. I'm thinking about a drift car or something that can handle the wheel speed.

Love your videos wish I could mail you my Amp crush I made it super fast on the cheap.Thanks for all you do

[@luissimoes8106]

Phil, great work in the sub chassi frame ( it's notable how steady it goes); mate, the mesh is amazingly smooth 👌 Still, if I'm not mistaken that motor can draw about 115 amps so I think definitely the batteries aren't the proper ones (you got about 105 amps available), and I think the ESC is heating because of that; I mean it's 120 capable...very "tie" for the 115 of the motor and it's just impossible for it to delivery 115 amps to the motor due to batteries 🤔 Regarding the speed variation there's a chance of being a pack release, though they use not to be so "long"...🤔 Can't wait for the next ... battery pack 😆👌👌👌

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, it is right on the limit. New Lipo to try and then a better ESC

[@StoryLrt]

i like your video.❤❤❤

[@gords1001]

I'd guess the speed controller may be overheating and throttling back to save itself, once it cools off a bit, it lets rip again. Don't forget, not only did you remove the fan, but you're making an attempt to still the air inside the body to stop parachuting. My old Yokomo mr4-bc used the exact same method to hold the body shell to the chassis. The 10T single I had in there used to destroy esc's and there were no actively cooled esc's at the time (roughly 15 years ago).

[@gbraadnl]

[@frasersteen]

There should be some quad racing batteries in the right size. HobbyRC or UnmannedTech are both great. Quad racers are severely bottlenecked by the lipos and run current and voltage telemetry in the on screen display. They KNOW what works or they just can't keep up with the pack. There's plenty of battery testing done on the quad packs too so it's pretty objective.

[@TomleyRC]

Cheers dude... will look in to it. I've manage to do a few mods and can now get a 5000mah 50c under there... the peak Amps on that is well above what my motor needs.

I have notice the same behaviour on the HW 10BL120. Had one in a TT02B that would intermittently stop doing the burst & only run on half power. Never got to the bottom of it. Put it down to poor quality control & stuck it in the spares box for a later date.

I've ordered a 124019 and hopefully it will be here by Saturday, mostly based on your videos, till then, I've been watching you tube videos to learn and get some ideas, but I have an unrelated question for you. So in the speed runs on you tube why do they keep the rear spoiler, because of motor weight you don't need weight in the back plus torque would tend to lift the front end, it seems like you would get rid of the rear spoiler, lower the front end and find a body that blocks the air from getting under the car causing it to take off, widen those car body posts to spread the downforce. Sorry about the late question, new to RC. Like your videos
