The motor is fine on 4s. I do speed runs on mine with 6s and no issues. As long as you don't overheat the motor it's not going to be damaged. Mine has done 98mph a few times on 6s using the stock 20 tooth pinion, with the speed pinion no doubt you will break 100mph. Good luck!
Great vid! I love the garage videos since day one! More of those:). Opened my RC Box today and blown away once again. Everything for the first three boxes has been perfect and everything you can use! Amazing! Thank you for everything you do for the hobby and industry!
Great speed with the Vendetta. It sure held a nice straight path. Probably not just the car but the driver played a big part in this run. Hope you hit 101mph. 👍
Great video, I think you made me want a Vendetta again i was going to get a Rlaaro AK917 but i'm worried about parts support and shipping time for parts and the car. But i know anything Horizon Hobby has really great parts support.
I went with the hot racing slipper clutch eliminator and that allowed me to go with mod 1 gearing. I went with 32 32. Then swapped out the hubs to run grp's. I run the same esc and swapped the motor to a 2250 kv spectrum. On 6s I'm at 109 but can't keep it grounded and still have more throttle. Check out kbash. He's got it nailed. On 4s it's in the 90's all day long. Good stuff. 👍
Weird that you got a cut out, I bash mine on 4s high speed gearing in my favorite parking lot all the time and never had it happen Lmao. It’s on the 130a spektrum 4s esc i had pulled from something else and the rest is all stock. Well stock except for the body, it’s an infraction 3s that I painted up. The 130a esc fits in the same spot as stock with both screws. The slipper in these things is garbage, I tried the new Arrma 4s slipper but the spur is too big to get more than 65 out of it. Ended up just using plastic weld to make the stock slipper into a spool. HR makes an eliminator but my hack job is still holding so I’m not bothering to upgrade just yet.
Ran my infraction with same motor with 130amp esc, 50t spur, 28tpin on same 4s battery was stuck at 88mph for a month with cut outs constantly, just this morning ran with a perfect no cut out pass and hit 91mph my PB. Used a 32 pinion and its slower for reasons i dont know? Trying 30t pinion when it gets here. Need to hit 100mph on 4s.... doing a bearing kit soon. One thing i noticed on a fully charge battery i get more cut outs but once its about half way discharged is when i get a good pass. Just got to keep trying. Been running 4s on same spektrum 3900kv motor for a while now and no problems still!
I've got a question for you. I've got a traxxas maxx widemaxx. I just bought 3.8 badlands belted tires for it. I've already changed the gearing with a 20t pinion. I've replaced the driveshafts to heavier duty shafts. But the issue I'm having right now is that I can't get my rc turn. I have to slow way down to make a turn. I know the steering can make full turn without rubbing. But when I'm at a higher speed it won't turn. My friend told me that I need a stronger servo. Do you have a recommendation on what servo to go with that is stronger, maybe faster too, but won't brake the bank?
I used a high temp brake rotor for a friction plate for my slipper assembly in my custom built car it’s stupid fast and one day I’m going to find out how fast
What 3s lipo were you running in this video? And did you ever find out the cause of the power loss? Mine cuts out on 3s with speed gearing using stock electronics and 3s zeee 80c lipos
Vendetta is a very fun car to run..100+ with not many mods.ive currently got fastest 2,3,4,5s detta..got some setup videos that might help ya along your Vendetta speedrun journey, check um
I have only had Traxxas RC cars so I was looking to get something else but I bought a 4tec then this car came out and I was kind of mad that I spent $400 on a 4tec and this is still faster
Thank you Horizon. ☺
@MarkSantaMaria, congratulations on the play button.
Nice car cool video enjoy the weekend
I was opening my RCBoxClub box while watching this.
Loving the Arrma content!
FinLly a utuber that uses a dead cat.. thank you sir.
Mark plz make some colored steering wheels for the fms 🙏

Sounds insane
GOOOOLLLLYYYYYYY!!!!
What is up mark
Congrats on the silver plaque 🤙

I have a buddy running a big rock with the stock 3200kv he's running 6s speed runs and hit 102mph its possible. His motor has lasted 6 months so far
Mark, congrats on passing 100k subs!!!!
Can appreciate the effort.
Sir I’m going to have to give you a ticket for going over 20mph in a 20mph zone
I like the colors really nice set up
Love this vehicle your video helped my with this purchase its so affordable
Always great footage

I wish they would make more bodies for the vendetta... like the jota Lamborghini body
Yes yes yes❤😊😊🤩

Amazing. Rc value that goes over 65 mph
I've recently acquired a losi 22s that I'm gonna eventually have doing crazy speeds lol
Excellent video love it
there's a green UFO in the beginning of your video 🤣 .
Mark are you racing at Silver State this weekend?
Been watching this channel for awhile. Sweet run man
Great video! I've been eyeing the vendetta for a while now and couldnt pass up the $199 sale on them!
thanks for the heads up!!!
i woud be happy to show you my rustler 4x4. Doing 101 mph dally but can still jump like a king on skatepark✌️ 2,84 diff is the trick✌️
Take the wing off & just use the 2 upright fins.
Mark when are you gonna do the new rustler build???
Ran my infraction with same motor with 130amp esc, 50t spur, 28tpin on same 4s battery was stuck at 88mph for a month with cut outs constantly, just this morning ran with a perfect no cut out pass and hit 91mph my PB.

Love that color!! Is it blue or more purple? Mine is on order. Never seen it in person.
I.m working a 1.18 scale truck making it go fast

Are you by the Traxxas building off Stacy rd??? I need to find a good speed run spot. Any suggestions??
Slow it down a lil the speed limit is 20mph 😆 nice run
👍👍
I'm building a 2wd brushless rustler now what tooth pinion gear setup should I run for the most top end and or low end speed???
Where did you run I like the area, I am in DFW area too
I have a stock arrma vendatta does the high speed gear make a difference on the stock system . How many t is the high speed gear. Thank you
😂 SPEED LIMIT 20 🏎️💨 #aintcare 📝
Boom 🎉
I bet you there is a lil tiny kraton doing a wheelie on the windshield...
I guessed 85mph so close
What 3s lipo were you running in this video? And did you ever find out the cause of the power loss? Mine cuts out on 3s with speed gearing using stock electronics and 3s zeee 80c lipos
I think your ESC detected that the motor is getting too hot. Get a more powerful heating fan.

When is the video about how good your son did at PNB ?
The vendetta is 1/8 scale not 1/10.
🏟🏁⛩🏎🎫
It's actually 1/8 scale not 1/10
everyone ell´s are running +200mph, but you are testing a stock car on 3S.... !!!! Boring beyond
If you change the electronics the motor is actually rated for 4s.
