Looking more torque and less speed
I just got a Bullet Flux in a trade and have seen this truck run and seen it break. It used to be my sons and he went to Crawlers so he traded me for my Night Crawler. I ended up fixing this truck alot for him. It runs good and is fast but doesn't take bad landings and such very well. Up till now all parts have been replaced by what I have to say is the best customer support around IMO. What I want to do with it is to slow it down to the point where I can play around with him and his crawler and still have a bit more top-end than the Night Crawler. I am working with the diffs to provide a positive pull on both axles and I am not sure whether to go with heavy grease or a spool but my question is about the motor. It is a 4000Kv motor and I was thinking if I go down on the Kv I should got less speed but will I get more torque? Does that depend on the type of motor? I know alot of people will say"throttle control" but that to me is a joke. I already have two 2wd cars (Losi desert truck, Rustler VXl, both heavily modified) that will do 60 or better depending on battery. I want my 4wd to be slower and more powerful. This truck is just as fast as my 2wd trucks if they are all on 2s. I am thinking of somewhere around 1500-2000 Kv. Does this make any sense? Any motor suggestions? I am going with bigger tires too. Have to make some adapters to mount a set of T-Max tires on it so I really need to slow her down.
