grusomkis 0 Posted October 22, 2005 Does anyone of you have a motor tester? If so what is your RPM record? I got 63250 RPM from a Peak performance V2 10x2. I timed it so it came to a short cut, and pulled the endbell a tiny bit back. Man you all should hear that motor scream LOL Its fun all the things you can do on a race when you ar bored. Would be interesting to try that timing on that motor in a SS straight against a brick wall eh? [}][}] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJTheo 2 Posted October 24, 2005 Wouldn't run a such a fast motor without load as due to extreme centrifugal forces windings may come out or break, still impressive fig, especially to a vintage guy like me where 20-25k were top back then...

mr_pushrod 5 Posted October 24, 2005 My best is 'only' 50,000rpm from an old 7 turn Trinity D2. Shows you how much motor technology has come along when you can get over 10,000rpm extra even with 3 more winds! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grusomkis 0 Posted November 6, 2005 mr_pushrod: Still if you did not get as much rpm as me, i bet you loved the scream in that motor LOL. The V2 i tried , was a motor that had been skimmed so many times so it was ready for the recycling bin. A 12 or 10 turn is laying around 50000 rpm's in the motor tester as i can see.

mr_pushrod 5 Posted November 6, 2005 Lol, the scream was quality! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan(2) 89 Posted November 6, 2005 Could you imagine, putting a motor with 50k rpm in a F103 or C group , with the right pignions, matched battery set... whaaaa!!!!! airborn! Stefan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr_pushrod 5 Posted November 6, 2005 I've tried a modern Trinity D5 12 turn in a Mercedes C11, was interesting to say the least! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan(2) 89 Posted November 7, 2005 Did not dare to go below 15T in a F103 , was quite capeble of destroying the car actually < note, i am a bad driver > Sitting to think here... F103... Brushless... Iieeeuuwwww!!! In the trades topic, wanted, 20 chassis plates for F103, i want to run a pack of lipo's today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GPZ1000RX 0 Posted November 11, 2005 Back when the 103 chassis was still in production Aldershot Club used to race them allowing modified motors, most of the experienced guys used 13 or 14 turn motors. My own choice was a 13 triple wind geared right down (small pinion/big spur) and ESC current limiter at 75amps. They used to fly round, beaten only by pro10 cars! The conditions had to be good tho, warm, dry, tyre additive, black racing line etc. If it was wet and slippy it was back to the kit motor or it became impossible to do a lap without spinning off.

bishy 0 Posted March 7, 2006 My record is 62,560 out of a fusion 9*2 turn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GPZ1000RX 0 Posted March 9, 2006 Anyone heard a very hot slot car motor running off load? The fastest of them were turning at 50,000rpm in the early 70s, at a guess I'd say they are 3 times that fast now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r6stu 0 Posted March 12, 2006 I have got a D6 11x2 That im planing on sticking in My F103 and using 3600 cells and a high pinion! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
