well if you are around my age (32) then you would know about the greatest bmx movie ever made.. "RAD"... cru jones is the star of the show,, his main thing in the movie was learning how to do the backflip

well unless you were into bicycle freestyle or jumping ramps,, or racing,, you might not like it,, it is kind of cheezy ad low budget,,

man you can barely hit the throttle without flipping over:rolleyes: ..maybe time for the 6 cell packs you speed demon?

yeah,,, and that was only the 7 cell,, i have an 8 cell also,, and yeah i guess it is time for a 6 cell..
alfred

Hey man i also agree, stick with the 6cells-----you will have lots more fun. Just too insane and uncontrollable with that kind of speed. Nice acrobatics man......lol....

yeah im trying to see if there is any way to fit the gp2000 inside the rc18t,, atleast 6 cells..

should have enough amps in there to send that lil motor to the moon,,
alfred
03-10-2005, 10:07 PM
dude that motor can is going to swell up and crack.......just like a V8 engine block pushing too much torque....lol:D

i know there has go to be someway to get atleast 6 gp2000 inside the rc18t,,,
alfred

Why do you want to use such big cells in the 18t......what are you trying to do. Your 18t is already fast with the cells your using now, why do you want to use a cell that puts out even more voltage.:confused:

for longer runs at the track,,, that is all,, if 5 gp 2000 cells is almost equivelant in speed and torque to having 7-8 cells gp1100 then i wouldnt mind doing that,,, since the 2000 put out more amps it shoul be easier to have less cells with longer runtime and just as much power,,,

i would just like the power of 6-7 cells with longer run times...

i only have about 7-10 minutes of runtime now,,, the 8000 uses up power like no tomorrow.. very short runtimes
alfred

thats why i dont recommend getting the 8k i wouldve gotten the 68k for the runtimes and since your using over 6cells that would also mean insane speeds as well.
