Holy Moly!

Thats FAST!

I'm pretty sure that thing is WAY faster than the Top Speed of my Hopped Up Nitro Viper....
And Off the Line?...No Contest....Its Much Quicker than any 1/10 rtr nitro that I have seen....

Eddie,,,,,Will the Himoto Brushless go that Fast?

the 4600kv is like a 7~8 turn motor but the crack i feed my'n comes in the form of amps. I can give the motor 70 amps due to the A123 cells. there is no other battery that can feed the BL motor like the a123 cell. lipos will die way before my pack will kill over. I can say this that my himoto is faster that a slash with a 11. lipo and a 5700kv motor.

Internal impedance: (1kHz AC) 8 mΩ typical
Typical fast charge current: 10A to 3.6V CCCV
70A continuous discharge
120A, 10 sec pulse discharge
Cycle life at 10C discharge, 100% DOD: over 1,000 cycles

So i am surfing the himoto site and run across a part #98-t100 is this the new gears for a brushless setup? I cant see a big picture of it. If it is when are we going to see them Eddie?

wow, if the slash tires look THAT big on that truck, it must be tiny

that's a good thing in my view. it'll have less load when driving it and you will get more battery life.

imagine throwing some moabs on that thing. then, you would get REAL standing backflips.

i still don't think i would be anything like [link=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2TDIWLtrcs]this[/link]

I have to agree with you here Rich, They should make a new scale for traxxas trucks, there smaller than 1/8 but larger than 1/10, I think they are 1/9th!!!!

Looks like Spring is THERE to Stay!!!

Waiting sucks!!! I was out running the truck sunday didnt even hit full throttle on the track, on the first pass, and one little bump turned it into a cartwheeling missle snapping two axles off at the pin. this this is insane. I know that the rig can handle the smaller motors but it is not up to the task of holding up to a huge kv motor. Eddie when is your container coming i need parts?

ok i made another boo boo. i broke the servo saver on my mt10. i need a new one and i lost the front drive cup for the center driveshaft. don't ask me how i have no idea. but damn this brushless setup flies. and it's almost impossible to control in 2wd.

Is the drivetrain (spur, pinion, driveshaft) on this completely enclosed?

The spur gear/pinion has a cover over it, the center shaft is covered by a top plate.

Cool. This is a good upgrade, no need to worry about gravel getting between the spur and pinion gears and stripping your gears. I've had this problem on my 1/18 scale and was looking for a 4wd 1/10 scale and this was one of my concerns. The mega e mt10 seems like exactly what i'm looking for!
