It’s a common part that breaks unfortunately. This car got a full 100% throttle pass but unfortunately it did flip during the pass, which broke the same arm. It’s getting below 30 degrees here so I don’t have too much more time to push these this season. I should be able to do 150 on 3s fairly easily as long as the body and wing allow it
@@vwturbowolf Yeah, they probably need 1/8 scale turnbuckles. The body should be fine, but not sure about the wing at those speeds. With your setup 150+ should definitely be achievable. 30 degrees? You must be on the East Coast like me.
That sucks. I went over car when I received it. But mainly because I am used to build most of my cars from the ground up. The RTR version I notice a couple small issues. But most aren’t critical for running the car it’s personal preference on the way I build my cars.
@@vwturbowolf think you cuttin yourself there. Linked to throttle, you'd get more downforce at beginning if rhe run, decreasing with speed, will help stability a ton throughout the run. Body shape shoult be just enough downforce with wing at 0 at full speed. Linked to throttle, it will also help with braking at end if run, think bugatti active rear wing, of sorts, creating an "air brake" essentually. Just a thought, but I thinknyour stability concerns will be less with a throttle/wing mix. Give it a test at 75% see what ya think.
@@troymonroe9656 I’m continuing to run it how I have it set and testing. I have my reasons based off other cars I’ve set up, I don’t want it changing during my run especially when it would stand up above 115 mph when I let off the throttle if it was reacting to my throttle input, most likely that would cause the car to flip even off throttle.
@@vwturbowolf Why not? Eh, less heat, more efficiency, way more power.... But, if the point is to use the lower voltage to see what's possible, then I get it.
@@mlentsch that is the point, I hold records for 3s and 4s in 1/8 and 1/7 scale cars and enjoy pushing low voltage. I built this specific car to stay on 3s, motors were selected for 3s, I have another dual rlaarlo with 4s motors and a stretched dual with even bigger 4s motors. I build different cars to run different voltages. I even ran a dual and 3 motor limitless on 3s and 4s last season. It’s just fun
150 on 3s comin..nice job Shawn!
Awesome run! I have a broken rear upper rear suspension arm on my dual motor build. Hopefully It gets here soon, so I can get my video out.

Great run, Shawn.
Nice Run Buddy!!
Fantastic pass brother
Thanks buddy. Let’s see if these esc’s take a little more
Awesome pass 👍🏽🤩
HELL YEAH PARTNER!
nice i got mine with dual motor already but one of pinon gear just fell off looks like no thread inside exitement gone

Don’t give up buddy! Fix it and you will love it again!
Awesome job brother 👏
Thanks 👍 much appreciated
awesome pass!! what motor spec and esc?
These are tp3640 TP Power motors. Just regular version. Nothing crazy
Wow!!!!!😮
You got the wing servo synched to throttle?
Keeping it set at a fixed position

How much KV is that motor?
These dual motors were a tp 3640 size motors and I chose the kv based on running 3-4s max
why would you run only 3S??
Why not. I have one that runs 4s too. Having fun pushing big numbers on low voltage. With these 1/10 cars as a dual you can only fit 2-4s anyway

@@vwturbowolf Oh...well, congratulations and well done, in that case!
