Venting the body with holes for air flow will also help. My Kraton was thermalling off with the bigger pinion, added heat sink with dual fans plus vented the body and boom! No more overheating.
Fans alone sorted it..👍.. Cutting the body is never an option for me... Especially on this rig.. I'm surprised you had to cut the body on the Kraton since it's wide open.. did you try just the fan upgrade without cutting the body?
@@camaroboy383 i didn’t cut the body, just drilled holes nice and neat on the passenger side front window, and on the side where the motor fans are and right on top of the fans. 1/4” drill bit did the trick. I don’t remember if the fans and heat sink alone did the trick. It runs awesome now with no heat issues.
Great video man the installation came out really clean looking. As soon as I’m home for more than 24 hours I’m going to get mine mounted up, thanks again buddy!
Thanks brother... Hopefully it will stay cool enough to get through a pack cycle on that 20t pinion..🤞... Let me know how it works out for you my friend..😎
Im all so running the 20 tooth in my in fraction 6s it gets a little hot I do want to upgrade the fans have you ran the speed pinon gear yet 27 tooth??🎮🏎️😜
I prefer the 20t for street bashing for sure... good balance of torque and speed.. 😎 I have run the 27t, car ran about 83mph in about 400ft with a pair of cheapo zeee lipo's.. 👍 If your not speed running I'd suggest lowering the motor timing in the esc, the factory set 20+ degree's creates a lot of heat for very little real world gains.. I personally wouldn't run anymore than 15* of timing on that combo..
Nice! That was a beautiful job! I'm impress but then again it's Mr. Alden Cost. I'm a subscriber. Just wanna know when u are going to get back to the raminator engine? I just got mine and 3 days later my cylinder has a gouge and piston rings all broken up...break in procedure wasn't done right. Stupid me. Got a new engine coming any day now. Wanting to know if you would do my engine. I really like what u do and I like the way you speak for learning. Can you please help me out? I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your time and reading this .Have a blessed one!
Thank you my friend.. appreciate that.. sorry to hear about your engine burning down.. that's awful to hear man.. we are still in the testing stages of all the mods.. the engine is amazingly different in a good way... But It is still not exactly what I was after and will endure a few more tweaks..😉.. I want to make sure I can provide the most amount of power out of the stock engine as possible.. We may be venturing in to larger displacement soon..
@@KingKrashArah-Cee sorry for the delay in response buddy.. I'm working on another raminator engine option at the moment.. 71cc upgrade..😎.. so my advice would be to wait until I wrap up this new project.. in the end it would be more worth while for you to go the 71cc route..👍..
@@camaroboy383 can I buy the 71cc and send it to you? I don't have the money yet to buy one but soon Mr. Cost, I will buy one. Can I send it to you? TMR/eastside rc didn't want people sending him 71ccs from rogan cause they didn't do the specs right or something but I'm sure you know what to do and also I want to know is after I show you that I am for real and send you the engine, will you let me test your craft and permote you like eastside rc permotes TMR? It would work out for the both of us? Please consider this if I'm not out the way asking you this. Thank you for your time and for responding to me. It feels like an honor!
I am not.. my design was stolen and now they are being manufactured in china far cheaper... Keep in mind, the material, and finish is much worse than mine were.. They can still be found on ebay, even with the pictures they stole from me.. The design is solid.. just be very careful with the threads.. The material is like butter..
@@Acornejo02 I'm sure I could fire up the machine and whip one up.. I'm swamped right now though so it would probably be a week before I get to it.. completely up to you sir..let me know and I can get the ball rolling for you if you want..👍
@@camaroboy383 I also the rear part you made for the felony 🙌🏼, the 3d printed part looked awesome 🙌🏼🙌🏼, I’ve just ordered a felony, I’ve been away from the rc hobby for almost 30 years 😅😅
@@stuartbarham3958 welcome back to the hobby my friend.. It has changed drastically since back in the day of mechanical speed controls...😎 The parts are available for sale on my eBay page.. The tail pans are out of stock at the moment though.. should have more listed soon.. 👍 By the way, congrats on the purchase man..you will love it..😎
