So...it's an HPI motor, which oscillates at how many rpm?
Is it that great? I'm clearly not well-informed.

Trying to find the RPM 's for ya
 

Hello - I've been trying to find thge Rpm's for ya but been having no luck . I was hoping to here from NEURO on this . Was wondering what he tought ? Also I found a bigger motor called the Team Orion Big Block for $37.00 bucks that I will be getting 2 . finally the best I can tell ya for know is that these motors are for a RC car called a Micro RS4 and that is a 1/18 scale car . So i'am quessing that since I'am putting a 1/18 scale motor in a 1/28 scale car it's going to fly FLY "FLY" ! ! ! ! ! You should hear this motor it just sounds fast !!!

i hope it doesnt' draw too much current or you'll fry your fets and will need to do neuro's external fet upgrade. that thing should have the torque and rpm's to simply rip apart the drivetrain, from the gears to the diff to the wheels themselves lol. if it doesn't rip apart the drivetrain, hope you got the traction to put that power down. i like how you're using another gear between the motor and the bevel gear, that means the motor will run in the intended direction. good luck with it and keep us posted!

Nice, those are some innovative mods!

Making that round motor fit looks a bit more difficult than the 260 motor idea I had, which wouldn't require the extra gear. I think the best way to make that motor work is by making a custom aluminium motor mount so that the motor can be fastened securely, and also the shaft for the second gear can be attached to the mount as well.

The metal axles are a great idea. I wouldn't be surprised if something like that starts getting mass-produced.

hey neurokinetic, ive heard youve got that external fet mod going... hows the performance, what are the codes for them, and also with your orion stock 180 motor, how did you rebuild it, did you simply deduct winds?


btw i want to see your best vs a miniz with nmls best should be a good 1

You'll see Y in my nexted PIC " BIG BLOCK "

My newest Motor
 

This is a Team Orion BIG BLOCK pretty sure know one has used a bigger motor in an Xmod to date ! The middle one was my last motor. It's sold allready tho :D

Re: My newest Motor
 

OK, it should be interesting to see how you plan to fit that into an XMod, and still run the stock body without having to resort to a body lift. :D

FET mod doesn't really make much difference in performance, it just allows for hotter motors. I have three different Team Orion 180 motors right now. One is stock, one is hand wound with 30 turns of 26Ga, and the other is handwound with 35 turns of 28Ga. Previously, I had used one with 10 turns removed from stock. That was a really good combo.

I'm still waiting for that matchup to happen. Actually, I want to run an NML XMod first.

i emailed you about those metal joint cups you made

You guys need to look at a Peak Turbo Coreless Micro Modified. It's just a little longer (1-1/8 long, 1-3/8 with shaft, and 53/64 dia.) then a 130 but will still fit in a RSX. The only problem is that it's also round needing an idler. I purchased this motor for my Losi Mini-T, which it will not work in. It propelled the little truck very well but not fast enough.

Big Block in car
 

Here's a pic of my Big Block in my car still not done yet having a problem with when I turn my car on the servo turm s to one side and dosent work . I have to look at it later tho wife wont let me right now :mad:

You have a $H!T LOAD of XMODS!!!!!!!

Big Block fully installed
 

And still pletty of room under stock body "supra"I also took it for a test run tonight wasn't fully happy with it "not fast enough" So I took AWD off going to test it again tomarrow if It dont't snow :D I had a problem with ball diff seemed to slip :eek:

yeah, the xmod's ball diff blows, it slips too easily. take the regular gear diff and pack it with the awd grease

U should make it a muscle car since u have the big block get a impala or a big chevy and pack a 6 cell in and get wide rims andn tires.
