My Novak SS Stampede Video

[jkoppk]

Here's a 2mb video of my stampede with a novak SS brushless motor running on a Promatch 7 cell matched side by side pack with one cell on the top.It's set up with 18/84 gearing which gives a final ratio of 12.69.It has 3 cooling fans,one on the battery,speed control,and the motor.We have clocked it at 49mph which is plenty and still get about 10-15 minutes of run time and everything stays nice and cool due to the fans.

Darn I can't get it to post.Anyone know where I can post the video so you guys can see it?Thanks.

49 mph? Sounds really steep, are you sure its not hitting 39?

[jkoppk]

K_sw31--My nieghbor clocked it with a Quicksilver radar gun a few times with the fastest run showing 49mph and the slowest was 45mph.

That thing is a beast :eek:

[trw]

what happened at the end?.i heard it crash then someone yelled "o my god!" lol

[jkoppk]

That was me saying oh my god,my son was running the truck.After the flip somehow radio control was lost and it took off full throttle and crashed into a neighbors car.Lucky it hit head on and just wedged way under the car.I'll post some more videos when I get a chance.

Holy Sheeze.....Is that stock plastic sliders, and yokes? U must be using the aluminum idler.... what hop-ups are on it?

[jkoppk]

Yeah it's the stock plastic slider yokes in it, and the only upgrade in the transmission is the alum idler gear.But I didn't use the deriln top gear I kept the steel one.I've never had problems with radio interference and it's stronger that way.I ran 6 cells for months and 7 cells for a week and have never had any tranny problems yet.It has traxxas big bores,5x11 bearing carriers and thats about it.It's the fastest and most durable truck my son and I have had yet.

[k_sw31]

Eventually you're going to snap the place where the plastic slider axle attaches to the wheel axle. You'll end up needing the the steel street sport axles, for future reference.

(I snapped those in a heart beat with 6 cells and a basic 5300.)

That is sweet. I was thinkin about the Pede for my son. So fastidious. :D

[NitroBoy24]

Thank you for making it 56K friendly :D. Not at moms school computer with cox...Like I said you are god :D. Whoa got a lil carried away there hehe.

[ElectricThunder]

That was sweet. I didn't know the Novak SS packed so much power....geez...

[DualBL]

you'll need aluminum output yokes too, cause those are a pretty weak link also :(

speaking of which, I got some for sale if your interested :p lmk.

but yeah, that's one of the better Novak SS vids I've seen. I showed my friends (who just got rc's like a month ago) at school that vid, and they couldn't believe how a little kid could control a rc that was that fast lol :)

On 7 cells, my SS powered stampede hit a max of 37mph with 17/87 gearing. How did you pick up almost 13mph more than I did?

The math works out with the 5800 hitting 48000rpm with 8.4V, and the gearing figures would be right on the money, but this doesn't happen in real world testing.

How tall are the tires on this pede?

Link doesn't work.

[kpsycho]

damn thats awesome im getting an rs4 rally before too long and im getting the ss system thats gonna be sweet

i also noticed a championship white acura rsx type-s there nice!

[jkoppk]

Yeah the trucks my sons toy and the rsx type s is mine.

[racinlosi]

Wow!! That thing is a beast!:eek: Man, I hope my buggy project works out that good.:D

[WheelNut]

ok, can someone repost the link with out all the ****'s ?????

[brutesparkfist]

it's rc(no space)pics(dot)net . why does it put ** when linking there?

[always_opencarb]

what do you got on that pede? you got masher 2ks?

[BCat125]

Wow that thing flies. I wish that brushless motors werent so expensive.:rolleyes: Oh well im sure ill get one someday.

[BlutoSigPi]

Who edited that video...terrible. 15sec of watchable footage...but car wise, a very impressive performance I must say.

[sofast]

Holy crap!

Thats the first time I have seen a brushless motor actually in a truck/car.. that thing FLYS.. I think I may have to get one for that B4 im getting:D

Sweet video man!!

I have an SS system in my B4, and its terrific!!! Top speed I got was 42.3mph. Average speed with good gearing was around 35mph(which is hauling for a 2wd buggy!).

I love the B4 brushless setup!!!!

[sofast]

Thats awesome man.. What kind of run time do you get? Im seriously considering the novak ss brushless.. Problem is I dont know if I want to spend that kind of money on just a motor:confused:

[mtrsprt]

Run times with conservative gearing and 3300mah cells was in the 8-10 minute timeframe. The performance is awesome, and they should last a long time before any failure.

I am going to post a thread on how long people have had their Novak BL systems without ever a problem.
