Project "Stealth" (Pics Inside)
Ok Ive been debating if I should do this project for a long time and I think Ive finally made my decision which is "yes I should do it". My goal= 65mph. If all goes to plan this should be done by next week sometime.
Setup
ESC- Mamba Max
Motor- Feigao 8xl
Batteries- 12cells IB4200's
Heres are some pics of the crazy setup. Hint "its like nothing you've ever seen"

Wow, that should be sweet! Keep us posted on this one! How are you going to mount the batts? Velcro? Zip ties?
Motor sticks out quite a bit though.. Could get dinged up by debris [&:]

Seeing as to how aerodynamics are crucial to high speed stability, what body do you plan on using with that?

WOW. good luck with this. I really think that it will wheelie like crazy because you have a fiegao 8xl and also the fact of how small your tires are.
You going to use a reciever pack and take out the red wire because of the twelve cells?

I think you should fit it with a kinda of custom wheelie bar thats really low to the floor to try to keep it on all 4's off the line. Similar to how they do in drag racing if you know what i mean.
something like :
That's for a real car, but you get the idea.

doesn't a fieago 8xl seem kind of low on the rpms? thats only like a 30,000rpm motor on twelve cells. i don't think you could get tall enough gears
