I run a 4300kv motor in my Evader. A little can, EZrun, and it'll do 40mph no prob.
Glad you got 'er running. How does the tranny sound? It should be a fairly quiet car. Compared to my noisier 3-Diff truggy.
funny, you would think a full 540 can motor would run as fast, if not faster than the ezrun finned out motors. I like those motors tho.
I have a DTX 3930 motor coming. the one in the truck is the DTX 3900. I wonder if an extra 250 revs will get it up to 40mph?
I cant find any hard data, but it seems like duratrax had this ESC and then switched to the one labeled element. I really wonder if there is any difference between the two?
the tranny noise....doesn't sound to loud. it is no SC10, but it doesn't sound like anything is wrong, and the wheels roll freely.
tomorrow I will try and run a full, fresh 2s lipo threw it.
