Жыл бұрынTook the optima down to the beach. So much fun being able to let it get to full speed. Must get a Speedo.

I'm quite surprised at the speed for a 2S -- great video! I have a 3S Typhon and generally run it at 75%, so that's pretty close to what a 2S would output, though these 1/10th scale would be much smaller and lightweight, and would definitely appear faster. I have a few of these re-releases (kits I wanted but never had back in the day), and need to get them built. :)

Ah, you're running a 5400kv motor. I think I'm used to seeing the 2550 kv LE MANS 240S in other videos. So you're getting about 2x the RPMs for the same 2S 7.4v voltage. If my math is correct, your 2S 5400kv is the same as a hypothetical 3S 3600kv, and the 3S Typhon comes with a Spektrum 3200Kv, so you're outputting more power in this 1/10th scale buggy than in the 1/8th scale. Does this make sense? Let me know if my calculations are incorrect.

Now my question is -- can the Kyosho handle this much power, sustained? :) Or is this a one-off for a speed run?

It’s the motor that went in it from the start and is still in it now. It handles the power really well.

I just got one of these (unbuilt) and curious what it is like on a high KV brushless setup. Damn that thing is wild. And the tires… lol

It can handle the high power beautifully, but make sure you glue the tyres!!!!!

Have you glued the tires since this run? :)

It needs a complete strip down and service after this run!!!!
