Run Duration Question

[TBone77]

I did a search on this, but I can't find newer data, so I'll just ask:

With a T4/XXX-T MFE II, a good 3000mah pack, a good LRP speed control, and a decent stock motor, what kind of runtimes could a guy expect? 15 mins? 30 mins?

Thanks!

Gearing is key in determining run time but I would say at least 10min. BUT don't run it for that length of time without letting the truck cool some or your electronics will get real hot and possibly get damaged.

I would say 10-15 minutes depending on gearing. But if you overheat your motor it could burn up the windings.

It also depends on your pace! If your just dinking around in the driveway you can easily flirt with 15 minutes. If your going at a race pace then you will be under 10 minutes. The RPM's are higher for a longer period of time, needing more voltage from the batteries.
