I noticed mabuchi 540 has opposite timing than RC10 tranny. and, I got 2 questions
1. anyone knows a 540 motor without (or counter) timing than mabuchi's
2. has anyone tried 5.9 to 6.0 gearing with 540? I'll use Lipo 25C battery. it's better than old batteries. but I'm not sure less than 6.5 gear ratio would work fine
The Johnson and Mabuchi should be zero timing ! !
I used 25t to 31t on carpet (78t spur and foam tyres)
and 21t to 25t (81t spur) on dirt tracks on my RC10ce with a Johnson 540
the track was built for the rally cars and was very small. I started with the old tires then I replaced the tires at the 2nd round. and then put large wing at the final
B2 got the 1st and 2nd prize.
fortunately the body is still shiny and clean. even looks like new one.
23t pinion with 82t spur worked great. thank you again
a small old RC race was held in RC rally circuit yesterday.
we got 540 2WD, 540 4WD, and open class. and my RC10 finally beat B2 and won the 1st. and my 834B got the 3rd
lots of kyosho 4wd were there and my 834B was the only yoke in the race
in 2WD...

Thats cool, ill be out for sure. If I dont see you this week maybe the following.
Caught this one on the bay a couple of weeks ago but decided I did not need another truck. After I purchased some other parts from the seller I was informed the he was local and the truck did not sell, so I had to check it out. Evidently the truck...
I have a quite specific question. When I got my first brushless (sensorless) system Hacker B40 Motor (or a clone) with a Hacker ESC, a lot of the motors were basically 380 in size, some such as the Hacker C40 were 380 sized with integrated...
Im way confused on 540 vs 550 size motors and the power output of each and hope you can help! My questions are based on me and a friend wanting to build a 1/10 straight line top speed car.
Here are some specs we found on a couple 540 and 550 size...

Also the extra torque allows you to gear to the moon,540 would depending on how long you want to run for in minutes theoretically will not like a small final drive an will get to a number where there is no potential for more speed due to heat.. If...
I've got a CE with a 2.25 Stealth coming in the mail and am going to be setting it up for my son. Can you guys suggest a starting point for gearing a silver can RS-540?
Thanks!

I've been running my 6 gear at 20/81 and it seems about right. The motor does get very hot after a 20-30 min run. I've been running the car with 25c-50c 2s lipo packs. It's funny , I had a 10.5 brushless in the car and now have the slowest motor I...
Did some searching but couldn't find a definite answer--- Are the stators on the Reedy 540 motors interchangeable? I'm wanting to swap a 17.5 for a 13.5.
