Rc dyno
 

Hello,
I was wondering if anybody out there had a dyno for rc cars? I need about 7 rc tested. I'd prefer someone within 100 miles of me so I can watch the tests being done. Also if you have a dyno what are your rates? Also you must be a reputable person, Right now I have an engineer at the university of montana that is willing to do testing for me at a rate of $30 an hour plus fuel costs.

Thanks guys/girls
Danny

it would be cool if there was one available for home use that linked up to a pc. if there was i would probably buy one

the only dyno that i know of is the one that the guys at Extreme rc cars magazine put together. how is the guy you know planing on doing the tests?

put a small rc airplane prop on it and just tach that. great way to compare two engines to each other. you can vary the pitch/diameter for testing high torque or high rpm engines, but just remember that your comparisons are only valid to other engines using the same prop.

Im getting exhausts tested so I need to see the actual #'s that the engines put out before my exhaust and after. Its one of many steps I have to take in order to get a review done on some of my stuff. What im at right now is $35 per test with the data printed out and mailed to me.

http://www.rcdynosystems.com I was quoted 1200 on one system and 1548 on another :). They are a bit out of my price range though.

RE: Rc dyno
 

are you talking about a engine dyno or a chassis dyno?
check on ebay

RE: Rc dyno
 

Engine dyno, I checked ebay a few days ago and there was just a dyno for electric motors.
