li-ions can suck my dick! (4cell xmod video)

ph2t · Post by **ph2t** » Tue Apr 05, 2005 11:15 pm

Here's a little video that betty.k and I put together showing how fast xmods can really go on 4cells. Stock Xmods by themselves suck pretty big, but once you've modded them and I mean, seriously modded them they become little rockets!

Check out these 'lil buggers.... You won't find an xmod as modded as these, that's for sure!

And here's the video:

It's 8MB, 480x360, in Divx format.

cheers and enjoy!

that they are pimp, that they are. I'm sure betty will get off his slack arse and post the full specs soon.

the porshe is my daily beater, i call it "the pitbull"

xmod chassis with brass eyelets for steering knuckles
awd
bb's
medium wheelbase
3 degree toe in
blue springs front, kyosho yellow rear
gpm alloy knuckles, rear cups and axles
atomic mods alloy front cups
topcad alloy rims (front reversed)
iwaver pcb
woah nelly 1.0
pn racing s03
10 tooth pinion
4 x AAA japanese nimh

the gt40 is for the 1:10 track, it's more set up for "autobahn" racing.

xmod chassis with brass eyelets for steering knuckles
awd
bb's
long wheelbase
0 degree toe in
custom stretched springs, hard front medium rear
gpm alloy knuckles, rear cups, rear axles, driveshaft holders and ti driveshaft
heatshrinked front cups
reversed rims, hard tyres
iwaver pcb
woah nelly 1.2
pn racing s04
11 tooth pinion
st2 heatsink
4 x AAA japanese nimh

if i put lithiums in these things they'd launch into orbit!

That thud against the garage door totally made me think of hogjowlz and how he plowed right into a table or wall or something and broke his shit.

Those suckers were cookin, cool stuff dudes.

No offense, but my li ion cars would of blown the balls off of ya GT40

But, yours is more reliable, ive killed about 5 li ions in my life, + 2 li-poly. Im making a car now with AAA's. Full alloy so far, waiting on a carbon chassis from xmodsource. SO yeah, im a AAA convert.. Cause' of betty and ph2t~

i doubt it considering the batteries were half dead in both cars. you should see em move with a full set!

backdrift · Post by **backdrift** » Wed Apr 06, 2005 5:55 pm

lol, i had a 54mph li-po car.. Killed the li-polys though, and that motor wasnt really driveable, it was 47mph on road with a radar gun, old so it was probley off a little bit. It was driveable, when i put in the S04 though. I love the S04 and im going to be running it in my monster when it comes. You dont have to belive me about the speed part, i really dont care lol. There are pictures of that setup in the "new project" thread, i dont post mph numbers since no one belives them, so no point. But i said it, lol. I would love to get a Plasma hybrid made up, since im going to be running li poly in the monster, and according to ph2t, 27 turn + ferrite's + li poly = to much torque, and that was with a 16 tooth pinion wasnt it? Since the FET's im getting put in wouldnt withstand that ( 2x6 stack ) ill just throw my atomicmod's V2 in there, if it dosent sell that is.

backdrift, our point is that these cars will smoke any stock xmod that has li-ion's in it. This is the whole point of the exercise, to show those dickhead xmod cattle that li-ions are not the answer.....you can do much more by reducing all the losses (be it electrical or mechanical) first THEN upping the source voltage.

cheers,

I know, im saying mine would kill ya! Well, if i didnt kill all of them, that is.

WOW, good job guys, i never thought 4 cells could come close to that speed! How much did it cost, and how about the labour?

backdrift · Post by **backdrift** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:12 am

Dude, his 4 cell IW02 owns that on the strait away! It is a IW02 if i remember correctly?..

that's true. if i ran into your smoking melted chassis my car would be stuffed!

i honestly don't hate lithiums, i'm just not prepared to buy a new charger and batts.
and i'm sick of people saying "wow that5 fast, r u ruuning litheumz?? skilynze rule!!!"
