mini v motor
What would be a good motor upgrade for the mini v? Would a mamba 6800 work well?

That discussion has been talked about [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_5521619/tm.htm]Here[/link] Page 4 is where the motor is talked about heavily.
:D |
RE: mini v motor
No, a mamba is too small for this boat.

RE: mini v motor
what about staying brushed?

RE: mini v motor
Ahh Good point.
You would have to consider the diameter of the motor since the mount surrounds the can. If you can create your own mount, then you are not limited by diameter restrictions. |

I would be interested in a brushed motor upgrade also. |

As for the electronics, Taylor had this to say...
ORIGINAL: Taylor Shaw the esc for this boat can do over 12 volts and i have run a 480 motor on it as well. |
RE: mini v motor
a great motor with a lot of power is the
280 peak raider. that is one of the best brushed motor with loads of power. no mods other then to change the motor out http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXFZK0&P=7 |
RE: mini v motor
so you can put mini t motors in it? What about a motor from a mini lst?
Will the mamba be underpowered or just not fit the mounts right? |

RE: mini v motor
Hi I just got one of these the motor is a 380 it's bigger than the mini T 280 sized motor ... This motor is the size they use in the kyosho mini inferno or the dura trax mini quake.

RE: mini v motor
I,m using the 6800kv in my mini v with the 25 amp speedo it came with there is no lack of power but the can gets as hot as the motor in my brushless mini lst and that truck is all alum. So I think I,ll make a water jacket for the motor and a water cooled block for the esc and see how cool that keeps things.I,ll keep you posted as soon as Iget the chance to build it.

RE: mini v motor
ya 380 400 or 480 is going to work but not a 280 miniT motor it does not even fit in the motor mount of the mini V did someone say the stock miniV ESC is 25amps? that is a good amount of juice I will go shop for a bigger motor tomorrow

RE: mini v motor
well if it burns up the motor at least I can say that I had fun and those motors are rather cheap about 60.00 bucks not bad when you add up 2 gallons of nitro that,s almost 70.00 bucks so if it last 2 weeks at the speed and power it has I,m happy and if it burns up I,ll go larger and try that and I did have to make a special motor mount out of 3003 .012 alum. the same thing I made the trim tabs out of.
