Czech-it-Out Graphics Wrote:.30 really isnt as fast as ud think. Thats cool that you figured out those formulas man prolly took a ton of work, but i dont see a buggy breaking the 70mph barrier. one of those Rody mod RB C5 circuit motors would prolly help with ur need for speed lol
Its not a buggy, it may use some buggy parts but its FAR different, and way more aerodynamic.
Blue lambo, on the bottom. Its got the aerodynamics, just needs the power, whether through torque and taller gearing, or RPM and shorter gearing. It also has a 2spd which helps tremendously. My crappy, worn out $70 basher motor put it up to 47mph. The same engine barely has enough power to get a Jammin CRT past 35mph.
Its not a true 1/8th scale on-road, however it IS an onroad, and has far less rolling resistance, as well as being much more aerodynamic than a buggy.
There is a big difference between a Hyper 7, and a Hyper One Seven. Click on the Hyper One Seven link in the sig to see a profile picture of it.
And mike, the 30vg IS as fast as he thinks. My stock 30vg powered Jammin x1cr clocked 53mph with 15/46 gearing AND I didn't do any aerodynamic tricks to it, still had the wing, and I was running off-road tires. The NR 528xr LSP clocked 53mph as well, and its a little worn out (bought it used).
I fully expect that a EB Modded 30vg and a 2spd in a buggy will set some blistering speed records. The same motor that can take a 3.3 Revo to mid 40's, puts a Jato into the mid 60's. 20mph MORE.
I also have drag co-efficent calculators that can calculate theoretical top speed based on vehicle weight, CoD, gearing, and rolling resistance. However, I don't know the typical drag coefficents of a buggy, truggy, or many other RC's for example. So I can't use it as guessing could really throw off the results. I know the average CoD's for full size cars though.
