brushless setup







i have a 2200 3s lipo to use, ordered an orangerx t6 because im getting into planes as well.

im going to machine a motor mount at school as we have a mill and scraps of metal

With some specs like recommended motor ratio, number of teeth on the gears, tyre size and intended terrain we could try to calculate something that might be suitable... certainly an interesting project.

ok, the wheels are the basic buggy ones you get on ebay. i don't know the size and whatever.
the terrain will be like a bmx track, roads, skate parks, the beach.
for the gearing i still have the original 2 speed clutch bell. so i though i woill make 2 sets of holes for the motor mount so one set will be for the lower speed with more torque and the other set will be for the higher speed with less torque
i was also thinking of getting a 1/8 brushless setup but that would destroy the gears so i will probably get a 3000kv brushless with a 45A ESC

link to a different motor and esc combo
this one has an 80A ESC
i don't know the teeth numbers. i will count when i have the chance

is going to be awesome can't wait B) :P

Okay, so the gearing could be kept to buggy spec. :y:
Tyres are usually around 85mm for a 1/10...

Keep us updated, always cool to see an original design. :)

ok then, there is a big cutting head witch would probably be the same size as a 540 or a bit bigger.
