allbluedave Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Hey guys. Ok so im looking at modding my carnage to make it faster than it already is. I was thinking of a higher ampage esc and faster motor. Bigger battery. Maybe a double brushless motor if its doable? Bigger spur and bigger cog for the motor. Any sugestions guys. Ive heard that the 3s lipo batterys make it rapid but can kill the motor by over heating. Anybody done the above mods? Cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Yes. Double brushless mod. That would be ace. Anything is doable. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allbluedave Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 You done a double brushless before t maxx? Would that mean you need 2 esc,s? Like the idea of this. Saying that know doubt this will cane the battery? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Not done it myself. But seen double brushless on a couple of things. It means alot of work for a custom mount and stronger just about everything and its a silly idea in real life. Being serious.... how much are you wanting to spend and how fast do you want and what do you want... top end speed or quick off the mark?

Cheers guys Sounds very expensive, would be better off just starting from scratch with something stronger and faster in stock form, then tinkering with that. Im not sure that car or drivetrain will take much more than the factory brushless setup. Edited September 27, 2016 by Twist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Have you looked through the Vantage/Carnage thread as linked in my previous post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allbluedave Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 I had a scan through it chewbacca but not all of it. Theres loads lol. top end speed i was looking at. The 3s batterys look chunkier than the one with the car. Will i need longer battery posts to hold a 3s battery? Never thought of the drive train coping with the extra torque. Maybe a bad idea then lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I run my Hooligan on 3s 3600mah packs with no modification needed to the posts. I have modified the Hooligan though, it's running an 80a/3000kv combo and Kyosho Rally wheels and tyres. I did do a full strip and rebuild of the diffs etc. Replaced all the ballraces with rubber shielded ones, filled the diffs with oil and rebuilt the shocks. So far the only casualty has been the spur. The diffs have survived very well. My Carnage is running an 80a/3520kv combo and has also been treated to a full rebuild. Well, many full rebuilds lol. I don't run it on more than 2s but even so it's lunched a few diff spurs and CVDs. Immense fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allbluedave Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 I know most dont see the carnage as a good car to own but i think there great. There pretty fast for the price and can be modded easily. The only thing ive broke on mine since i got it is a lower wishbone which aint bad going as it gets used regularly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
