Hello young man. Congrats on hitting 1k subs. You are gaining great traction! Another informative video. Thank you for sharing and showing me how effectively the giro works on an rc car. Now I truly understand it! And thanks to your video I now feel confident in buying and upgrading the cars for our channel video. Have a great day and stay safe! Kind regards, John. 😊

It’s a bit much with the 3650 but the 2845 is pretty cool. Quickness is close but the brushless 2845 3930kv is fast. Probably if you try a 3100kv would be great and maybe more run time. I just bought three more brushless motors to try. I’ll get to that ASAP. Thanks for watching and have a great day.

Neat idea with the door mat. I got an $8 yoga mat that I cut in half, and doubled up. The top piece got holes cut out so it created small trays when stacked on top of the bottom piece and glued. Both ideas sure beats paying $40 for a pit mat. I ended up getting the same servo you have after trying a bunch. Its been working great for speed runs!

The amps are a bit of a funny thing. It depends on the gearing on the car. If it’s geared fairly low then it wouldn’t ever draw even 30 amps. It also depends on what the “C” rating of your battery is. If the “C” rating is low it can’t supply 35 amps even if the ESC needs it. On the other hand if you gear the car really high and use a 100C battery it could easily overload the ESC.

@RCModSquad

The gyro senses the direction of the car and tries to maintain the direction you were trying to go. If you have ever been in a skid in your car, you steer into the skid to regain control. The gyro does the same thing. When you take off and the car starts to spin out the gyro tries to maintain the original direction even if the car is actually a bit sideways. It’s not perfect and is effectively limited by the servo power and speed. Even if the gyro is giving the correct correction angle the servo may not be able to respond fast enough.

It sounds like it’s cogging. You need to pick up a programming card. They are around $12. It programs the ESC. You need to turn the “punch” down. Probably if you pick the car up it won’t do it but when you put it back down it will jitter until it gets rolling. You can also try to push it as it takes off. If that makes it go away then you know it’s cogging! I’ll be using a programming card in my run video. If I get home early enough I’ll do that later today and post it Thursday morning.

hi, just bought one of these for my son! What are the things to buy for preventing errors? Ive read that the suspension needs to be filled with oil because they are dry? Is that true? Also do i need to get metal gear for the motor? Read that they get broken pretty fast. Also im looking for some longer lasting battey! Can you recomend some? Thanks
@RCModSquad
@RCModSquad 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for stopping by. All my shocks (I have 3 of these) have had oil in them. I’ve heard claims that the differentials don’t have grease but none of mine were dry. They are not filled with grease and for the purpose of lubrication don’t need to be. However, I prefer to fill the rear differential with a fairly heavy grease. It functions as a bit of a limited slip differential and helps the car go straight from a full throttle punch. The pinion gears are metal and the spur gears are plastic (it looks like nylon) and even on 3s with my brushless motor I’ve never broken one. So far, the ones I’ve seen that broke have been using adjustable motor mount. The factory mount is non-adjustable and has a bearing on the driveshaft that prevents deflection and keeps perfect alignment of the pinion and spur gear. The adjustable mounts don’t use the bearing on the driveshaft so the motor can push the spur gear over far enough to cause the gears to slip and damage the teeth. One other thing worth mentioning is this car uses a pretty rare gear pitch. It’s .7 MOD and I’m not sure the people having the issue of broken teeth are using the correct pinion gears. A .8 MOD or 32p will kind of go together and seems like it will work BUT it will not. Sorry for the delay with my answer. I recently broke my back so I’m not moving very fast right now. If you have any more questions please ask away and I’ll get back as fast as I can. Have a great day and be safe out there!

@@RCModSquad Hi, thanks fo the long and detailed answer! So no need for metal gears. But metal differntials are a good idea right? I have a question about the shocks. Someone wrote an article about this car, and he said, that all of them comes with way too much oil in it, which isnt good. So he recomend to loosen the shocks oilcap(dont know if thats the correct name of it) and press the shock so it pumps out a the amount of oil that is too much. Also one guy recomended me to use 300cts in front and 600 cts in rear suspension. Why is this cts important. What oil do you use? Maybe this arent so important to follow, but im a very precise person and like to make things correctly and the way its best. Also is it normal, that my 144001 rc car has a weird whell alignment? The front wheels almost face outwards? They are very loose and i dont knwo if that is normal. You can move them in and out. I mean if you look the wheels from the front. Not from above. Hope your back get well soon! Have a great day.

@JEFFY RCee When you buy these from AliExpress (like I have) you can find this exact ESC in 4 variation 45A, 60A, 80A and 120A with the only difference between them being the sticker on top of the fan and about $1 difference in price between them all! Obviously 120A versions are most popular cause people think their getting awesome vaule when they are just paying for a sticker. I of course brought the 45A version and saved $1 😂 Also in regards to size, weight, thickness of wires, size of capacitors heat sink and fan size, it's all pretty consistant with your typical 45A 2-3S sensorless brushless ESC. ESC's rated to larger current/power are usually much larger to accommodate for the extra current/power/heat distribution with the exception of some sensored race ESC's beacuse even though they may be 120A they are 2S only so the power going through is less also being sensored including a temperature sensor they can operate more efficiently too and are also much better designed with superior quality too. Amongst RC groups, these so called 120A ESC's fail burn out alot and are usually labled as garbage. I don't think they are garbage, just extremely overatted and when people try to put too much current through them, they fry. If you treat it like a regular 45A ESC limiting your motor size, KV, weight, load, gearing ect.. to stay within 45A you'll be fine. I did fine with mine the punch from factory was set very low however that can be set via program card, not sure how the ones stickerd 120A are factory set, maybe they set them higher to make the buyer feel they are getting an ESC with more power? I don't know either way doesn't change how much current they can handel. Hope you found this useful 👍🏻

I went with a 2845 3930kv just because nobody else was. I think the balance on the car is better. It’s a bit more hassle to do that though. If you stick to a 3650 it will be a direct drop in. The easiest way to do it is to pick up a new motor mount and pinion gear. You can reuse the old one but it takes a lot of heat to release the glue they put on all the screws. I do have a video on that in my playlist. If you stick around the 3900-ish KV level with the stock pinion you should get close to 50mph on 2s. Maybe go with a 45 to 60 amp ESC. I’m using a 35 amp on the 2845. Good luck 🍀 and let me know if if you have any more questions. Have a great day and be safe out there!

You could still get it but you would have to buy the gyro receiver separately and that would raise the price by $16. The Radiolink does have the gyro receiver with it. The Radiolink will allow you to name and control 10 different cars or you can have two profiles on one car. One for bashing and the other for speed runs. That’s pretty handy so you just choose the speed run name and all the profiles for everything are already set then just switch to the other name and you’re back on the bashing profile.

@RCModSquad
@RCModSquad 2 жыл бұрын
My guess is that the 2838 struggles to take off but if you give it a little push it is ok until you stop again. If that’s the case you need to get a programming card and turn the punch down a little. It’s what’s called cogging. Sensor-less brushless motors need to spin a bit at low load to “figure our” their timing. If you turn down the punch it helps. A larger motor like a 2845 at around 4000kv would work well with the 12 tooth pinion. You didn’t mention your KV but I’m guessing it’s pretty high. If you want to stay with the 2838 you could lower the KV rating and that would help. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day and be safe out there!
