Motors with 0 Degree timing. A list for Clod Owners ?

[backtomyroots]

Hey all,

Well, would it be possible for someone to post a list of motors with 0 degree timing for us Clod owners that would like a jump up in performance (speed) without getting the special motors with reverse timing and no patience to turn endbells around ?  Of course still swap the +/- wires on one of them right ?

[BiggusDitchus]

Venom Fireball motors are timed cans that come from packet with 0 degree, you can then time these if you wish.. excellent at £12 a motor and come in various different winds I have 2 x 19 turns in one of my clods.

For High Torque: Traxxas Stinger (20t and shed loads of torque) but non-rebuildable

Venoms are superb as mentioned by Biggus (gave my bro a pair for his gecko clod) - easy brush replacement

I run a pair of Tamiya Super Stock TZ's retimed.  Gives shed loads of pace and good power.  Real problem to re-time them though

Cheers

Steve

Wow, great thread you started. I personally run trinity X Star motors in mine, so they are designed for the Clod. (One is reversed)

I know the make a Maghem motor that is reversed for the clod. Towerhobbies sells them.

Just my two cents! []

Hey fellas, thanks for the replies [].  I have some Mayhems in my G-Made Clod but they are too slow !  Reason I started thread is I am building a Thundertech Rage Clod over the next few weeks and I want some speed, I think I'll go with a couple of Venom 17 turns.  I just picked up my first non-novak esc for it a LRP Quantum Pro Reverse (7 turn limit) [].  Anyway - keep the recommendations coming, because I like a lot of choices ! Plus we can build a list of motors for new clod owners that won't require the endbell to be turned (too much like work).

Sorry to drag up an old thread - but I am looking at fitting 19 or 17 turn Venom Fireballs in my SuperClod - what ESCs are you guys using?

[stumpyuk]

ive stuck two venom 15 t motors with twin mtroniks rv15 esc. goes like stink and gives a good runtime with twin 3000 batteries. doesnt wheelie as much , but rolls too easy now its quicker. looking to increase the wheel width.

Sorry to drag up an old thread - but I am looking at fitting 19 or 17 turn Venom Fireballs in my SuperClod - what ESCs are you guys using?

A basic rule of thumb is to divide the number of turns by two, so to run a pair of 19 turns you need an ESC that can go down to 9.5 turns, with Fireballs a 10 turn ESC should do. if you want to run a pair of 17 turns you need an ESC that handles 8.5 turns, so an 8 turn ESC.

Either that or like stumpyuk you use a separate ESC for each motor.

Still havent fitted any motors to my Clod - after the drowning it got at the weekend I am loathe to fit anything too expensive as its likely to happen again!

Anyone know if the el-cheapo Ansmann Clash motors are zero timed?

[thesnake505]

hay duno about the motors u ask about but if u search "YOKOMO 17 TURN DOUBLE PRO STOCK 11 STOCK MOTOR NEW" on ebay there zero timed, and theres a few diffrent ones on there (diffrent turns) hope the helps snake

[skip665]

Thanks Snake - thats not cheap enough for a skinflint like me though!

[thesnake505]

lol init, i just seen the diffrence in price, went on the Ansmann Racing web site and it dont show if they are timed or not? id say they have zero timing but cant be 100% sure, hope some one replys soon cause i may go for a couple of them rather then the super stock ones for the wild dagger i just baught

Yes I already have a 17t one of those in my Lunchbox - but I have an 11t ESC in my Clod so would like to fit twin 21t motors to make the most of it - hence the question about the Ansmann Clash motors...

[Danbox]

I need the same sort of thing. I was thinking about these:

Anybody used these?

[thesnake505]

hay people iv been looking at esc tonite, has any one used NOVA Leopard electronic speed controller? its a single motor no limit controller, will this be ok to run 2x17t motors? cheers for any help you can give, snake

[Rambo John J]

any no limit esc should run ok, but check specs!

0 timed motors, ive heard integy are also zero timed!
