Has anyone ever tried a 19T motor on 7 or 8 cells? I am thinking of setting up a Campbell hydro on 7 or 8 cells using a 19T direct drive with LiPoly.

thanks,

Steve
 
Steve I (my son ) Had a doug forrester eco boat that ran on 6 cells and a 19T chemeleon and that thing would hit 26 to 27 mph on just cp2400's I bet it would be a great combo in a campbell shovel.

Paul Pachmeyer did that in 00 or 01 with 8 cells in a Climate proto rigger (I am not adv'g for Climate I have a 6 month old order in with them for $thousands and no response to several emails) - I remember it running 38mph average speed for 4 or 5 laps of a nitro course on 2000's.
 
I was looking for 30mah and 7-10 min runtime, any thoughts?

thanks,

Steve

I smell something burning. Steve run any turn you want. A 19T on Lipos? 7.4 volts for 8 minutes.

Not reliable at all. Just trying to help ya out buddy.
 
I would guess 4-5 min runtime on 8 cells, without burnin up the com. For 3 rounds probably do-able.

I challenge you to try it and report back to us.....

Thanks, 8 is not going to work, that's good info. Howard does not even like 7.4 Lipoly either. Sounds like this motor is out. I am now thinking of using a Hughey gearbox and mild mod motor with a high ratio. Maybe a 640 or 642 prop with the gearbox. Remember, I want runtime, not all out speed.

Any brushless ideas?

thanks,

Steve

Since Speed is not an issue you could take a 19t can put a p2k2 (27t) arm in it and use a gearbox. You probably could get 8 minutes with that for sure if not alot more. Probably would work ok DD but a gearbox will take some of the stress from the motor.

Sounds like a low buck project you could even use some of the smaller graupner motors.

Okay, we have 4.0AH of energy to use if I used IB3800 cells. Assuming that we can get it done with 30 amps average, that should equate to 8 mins. What motor system can we use in this that uses on average, 30 amps and does not get too hot in 8 mins? Since a CB can do 25 mph on 6 cells with a 27T, I can't see why we can't get this to do 25mph. It may take a 7.4V or 11.1V lipoly setup though. I can't wait to get one and try.

Two below in parallel should work very well, only 190g vs. 390g of NIMH.

7.4V 2100mAh (2 cells) Rating: 15C (31.5A) continuous, 20C (42A) burst Dimension: 34mm x 100mm x 13mm Weight: 95 grams Termination: 16AWG wire & 4-pin balancer connector

You may want to test a Traxxas Titan Can motor. Its a 600 size sealed can with a fan for cooling, similar to a 700 type. These will take 14.4 to 16.8 volts.

There is an idea....really high voltage and lower current. Problem with that 14.8V 4S and 18.5V with 5S. Go NIMH and you have a brick in the hull. We need something for 14.8V or 11.1V or less. Keep the ideas coming.

thanks,
