  • I finally got myself over 24 mph, Peter! Have a look, and it was with a Torque Tuned 540 and very small wheels, even...
    It's not really cheating, but it is also a bit of a loophole? Is this speed accepted?
    Anyway, whether you are in a speed challenge, or you just want to go fast for some other reason, I sort of documented how I achieved this crazy tall gearing, low gear ratio:
    The modifications to gearbox are pretty modest, just a couple holes to drill, no grinding needed.
    I calculated the new gear ratio, it is now 2.8 instead of the 8.3 that a 19 tooth pinion normally results in.
    That's pretty steep, so I didn't use a fast motor, but just the old Torque Tuned 540. I will later try with a 12 turn 550, but not just yet.

    Well Mads, that was "unusual and different from what is normally seen" (the definition of "leftfield"!!!). This is becoming a trait of yours! But I think it's awesome! That was some speed increase and extremely good for a Torque Tuned motor. Looking forward to see what happens with the 12T 550. Good luck my friend!

      He he, leftfield thinking... I like that, Mark... And thanks, I do like to try new stuff, this just sort of popped into my mind because I couldn't really figure how to fit the 22 tooth pinion...
      I now ran the 550 in it, the mesh held up fine, and it gave me some extra McMiles, I will try to post the video today hopefully...

      Thanks Jeremy! I have no idea how I came up with that idea, maybe it was the Gods that guided me... The speed Gods, ha ha... Next step went fine also, I will try get video edited and ready pretty soon...

    Well Mads, I was not expecting that..... Great run man and a PB so far!!!!! 550 can will be interesting to see even though I have my thoughts on those longer can motors.

      Thanks Bob! Yeah, I didn't know where I was going with this but somehow it turned out alright...
      Also the damned 550 seemed to work okay, it gave me a few extra McMiles, so hopefully today I might have video out...

    Nice one Mads, that is what you call "Thinking outside the box".
    Well Done with the speed increase.
    You Are now not on the bottom of the list. 34 Mac mph is brilliant 👍👍👍

    If you wanna go fast, go brushless and run at 3s lipos at 12.6v!
