Which is Faster Nitro or Electric
Nitro VS Electric. Is Electric Really Faster? Is Nitro still the fastest? Which is really Faster Nitro or Electric? This question comes up so frequently in rc groups all over the internet and has sparked more controversy than I believe is necessary on the topic. Hopefully I covered the basic jist in this video of the reason why this argument keeps getting thrown around and my 2 cents on the matter.

ABC Super Hawaii

Had a bit of fun with the ABC Super Hawaii. Originally, this came with some generic 13,000rpm brushed motors and an old school esc. After not being happy with how slow it was, I swapped the old esc for a water cooled lipo ready twin motor esc now powering twin Traxxas Titan 12Turn brushed motors. The stock pinion gears were also replaced with the largest I could fit in the gear case. Now, this ...

    When I started it was Nitro that was faster, electrics the batteries were limited and run times were short. Now I would say Electrics with the Lipo batteries as they give out so much power and then Brushless motors. One thing electrics are easier to start with as my luck with Nitro has not been good.

    • @BLKLSTRC
      @BLKLSTRC 14 днів тому

      My luck with Nitro wasn't great either. My first one was a dud. Or maybe I was just expecting it to work like my electric ones did. Looking back now I definitely didn't pay attention or want to learn how to make them really shine. Now I really enjoy them.

Turns out the factory settings was the issue, on the low end the turns they said needed to be doubled. Plus it was killing a glow plug per run. I'm happy just to keep electric as rarely I have issues when out.

    I got one of the limited edition blue Clod Buster trucks. I have not yet built it. I do plan on installing bearings in the kit. I was wondering how durable are they? I do realize they can not jump 10 feet in the air and land hard. I have other trucks that can do that. Thoughts?

      I myself haven't seen any real issues durability wise. I am pretty sure in the middle of the video I mentioned they are pretty durable. I get mine up to about 25mph ish and hit small bumps and jumps with ease. Donuts are easy on 2s in dirt or sand and so far I have not had anything break on me.

    The only upgrade that they've done when they made the Super Clod was the plate in the chassis, when you attach the black suspension links. The original Clod had them just bolted to the plastic with nuts on the inside of the chassis, which caused breaks.

    So to add some information I bought my super Hawaii from the hobby store and the box said and actually I bought two of them because one of them I painted horrendously painted it terribly I mean I painted it midnight blue with silver speckles and I cut the wing off. I painted it midnight blue with silver speckles and that was the worst thing to do I also cut the ring off don't ever do that so the deal was there were two versions at that time there was a version that came with twin motors and there was a reversion called the CESA now the version that version came with four 5:50 motors in twin outdrives. Now it's really strange because even though there's a gearbox depending on what tooth pinion gear you use you end up with a one-to-one gear ratio there is just a mechanical advantage because you have a counter gear in there I was able to at the time purchase all of the hop-up items which included trim tabs which included delran gears and steel shafts and steel hardened gears There was also a very very specialized part that went inside of the hardened steel end plate which I also purchased I do not have a plastic gearbox my gearbox housing is plastic but the faceplate is metal also there is a really specialized part that I have one left it is like a ball bearing but it's made of rubber and your shaft goes through that rubber sealed gasket and goes out to the outdrive it fits inside just behind the ball bearing that supports the stub shaft that goes out from the gearbox the super Hawaii from ABC hobbies is so rare they came out with a smaller version which was 1/3 the size and it still had the outdrive ABC hobbies was out of Japan. The 550 that I have inside of my super Hawaii you would never ever believe that I'm running mine on two kyosho water cooled Marine motors I then have water cooling running into the astro flight speed controller. Used voice to text while driving home so if there's anything crazy or erroneous please understand. I overtime wanted to change it to a brushless setup but it has such a unique sound and now with LiPO batteries I'm able to carry less of a load when before I used to carry to 7 sell packs and when I really wanted to run it I would run 2 eight cell packs. The most that I have ever put through this setup was 37 sell packs but there was really no game due to all that weight. Now I'm able to throw more than 22 volts through the system and its only one pack. The boat came with 16 tooth pinion gears for the gearbox I went down and I'm running 12 tooth pinion gears. I am running in altura 440 propeller and sometimes I throw in October 640 propeller. I have grown up to a 442 propeller but things get really hot. Best performance in choppy wavy salt water marine conditions is the 438/3 blade propeller.. my second super Why I left it orange and kept it unique. There's also a spoiler that goes on the back of the boat not just the wing that provides lift to carry that load but there is a wing on the transom of the boat.

      So far I has run it on 4s the majority of the time. Both 2s lipo's that it came with in parallel. So far I have not had any failures electronic wise. I have about 8 or 9 runs on it (@ 4s). The stock gears seem to be able to handle the power that the batteries it comes with put out with little effort HOWEVER. I would assume if you start putting bigger batteries and trying to push more power you may run into faults in the stock gears.

    I like the idea of a nitro truck, but I’ve got a savage with a brand new dynamite.28 big red and I can’t get that dang thing to run. They’re temperamental compared to their electric brethren

      Yeah I don't have a whole lot of experience with HPI Nitro stuff. However these small block Traxxas trucks for some reason will always run for me. Doesn't matter how warm or cold. My 3.3 T-maxx on the other hand. I can get it running and to Idle but it won't run for long. Still have to tinker with it when I get around to it.

      U really have to pay close attention to how the engine sounds..I have 10 savages they all run great ..sometimes it's the pipe engine combo u are running..I don't own a big red engine some people love them some do not ..and of course the wheather out is a factor but over all once u really learn how a nitro engine reacts u won't have any problems..stay burnin nitro bro

      if you cant get a nitro to start, most of the time its because you are doing something wrong. not the trucks fault.

    Its an archaic design. Even the mountaineer I had in 93 was plauged with issue straight out of the box. Then one of the gears stripped in the transmission. In a box it went.

      Do you still have it? They are such cool trucks even with their flaws.

      @THBB I ended up selling it back in 03. Made substantial profit though. 🤣 I will admit... I have one of these enroute. 😁

    Love your tire and wheel selection over the stock ones. Not that the stock ones are bad, these are just better and less toyish. These trucks do pack a pretty awesome punch and great for bombing around and bashing. Should be really cool with your explorer body! Can’t wait to see it!👍🏻👊🏼💯

      At first, I was skeptical. I may have mentioned it in my initial thoughts video for the price. I wasn't expecting much, but I think it is a fun little truck. Thanks, I am looking forward to doing the Explorer build as well.

      Yeah Back when I had my 2wd slash a new Traxxas system was $150 and the Castle Sidewinder was $90ish. Now Castle has gone nuts with their prices.
