Yo Guys. I got the best run I have ever had with my Nomad XL cat today. Boy does she rip. But I think I can atleast make less heat, and/or get more speed. This is what I got and what I have been running.
Nomad XL 43" Cat
Speed master hardware
Aveox 1817-2Y Motor 50-100amp upto 32 cells
8s1p Lipo 6600Mah 12c Cont/ "30" IB3800 Cells
OEM RC HV 100Amp ESC.
FDM Gear drive. 75T pinion 60T Spur. 1.25:1 Over drive. (1.25 turns of the prop for one turn of the motor.)
x457 Done up and de-tougned
4mm gold plugs all around
The setup runs good. Have not GPS'ed it cause it such a riot to run! My experianced eye tells me it does low-mid 40's. So it's way fun. But, it does run a little warm. Well, more than a little warm, but not HOT. Just warmer then I would like it to run. Motor, ESC and batts all come out almost hot....But not quite. I would say around 130F. ESC is a bit warmer than the rest.
I think I need some prop choices and you fellas always seem to be great about that. I'll post some pics if someone wants, but I know I have got them in another post somewhere around here.
