Tamiya TT-01 - Run Video #8 (7.2v NiMH) FML
In this eight video, I'm having a test of the brand new LRP V10 Spec.6 12x2 brushed motor, combined with another HobbyWing 1080 Crawler ESC. The 1080 that was previously in the TT-01 is now installed in the Aqroshot.
This time, I'm using a Traxxas 7.2v NiMH battery instead of a Traxxas 2S LiPo, as I'm hoping this will stop the motor getting fried. Was thinking the discharge/burst rate might be too much for a brushed motor. Also, I'm just guessing with the whole discharge/burst thing. I'm not very savvy on LiPos yet.
Anyway, can YOU tell what happens in this video, going by the title? Answers on a postcard! Or in the comments, if you've even read this Description this far. After this one, I think I've discovered why my motors keep frying. It's way too over-geared. I was using a 28 (and 29) tooth pinion gear. Far in excess of what is recommended. Gonna use a 22 (or 25) tooth pinion in future.
I will continue to make these videos, using alternate bodies and wheels (when possible), I have plans to acquire a few body shells in the future.
Hope you enjoy and should be more videos to follow! If you'd like to help me acquire further parts and upgrades for the TT-01, feel free to donate to my PayPal and I'll use the funds to continue to upgrade it as much as I can!
