Before I loose my Cool entirely

DRIFT IS NOT JUST ABOUT SPEED!!!

Entry Speed
Angle of Drift
and Distance!!!


ewoo:

Spartan has already warned you as I have about High RPM with Nitro motors..
Nitro motors need Airflow to cool them..
If Your Drifting then Speed is not sufficient enough to cause Cooling... and POP CAN occur..
Now, I dont want to hear in 32 Days time
" I think I blew my Motor when Drifting"
You have had sufficient warning and advice..

Electric is the King of Drift and always will be..
The Angle of drift is alot Higher with Electric with the added advantage of being able to run late at night and indoors unlike Nitro

Throttle Response needed to control drift is alot more responsive with an Electric over a Servo actuatted throttle
on a Nitro

If You do not buy a fail safe for that Nitro before you even think of running it , it will end in Tears..

Nitro's are not Plug and Play like Electrics are..

GET A FAIL SAFE!

Electrics have the advantage of having a failsafe built into the ESC's
