I was wondering how long will my evader last on runtime with 3000 mah. batteries and a 15 turn motor with a 17t pinion????????? :eek:

if you run it, you'll find out.
haha, jk.
I'd guess around 15 min. It really comes down to how hard you're running, the quality of the battery, and the efficiency of the motor, a lot of factors come into play when you talk about runtime.

I'd say about 5-10 minutes depending on how much your on the throttle. The 10th stock trucks only get about 4-5 minutes out of 3300's of racing then the packs start dumping.

Runtime can vary as most have already mentioned.
You may see slightly lower runtime when pack is new, then a slight increase for awhile followed by small declines as cells decline. Motor maintenance and setup may also have a effect on runtime. The 17 tooth pinions may not be the exact pinion that will work so try something different until you found the gearing that gives good results - runs fast, runtime stays good and there is very little wear to motor parts.

suprapimp22- I think he'll get more than 5-10 minutes. My T4 w/ a 12 double and 3300 last about 10-12 minutes at racing pace. So with a 15 turn, and just bashing around, you should get more than 5-10.
