View Full Version : Brushless at GLRC
Dustin 11-15-2004, 09:50 PM Hey Guys! :wave:
Ok, how about a poll. It has been a argument, about brushless running with stock trucks and cars. No arguments, just vote.
Thank you,
-Dustin K.
David Washburn 11-15-2004, 09:51 PM ahhhhhhhhhhh ic it now
Fred Knapp 11-15-2004, 09:52 PM Dustin, we are going to split the brushless form the stock class this weekend and give that a try.

FishRC 11-16-2004, 02:36 PM Well since I have not been able to make it just yet.. from what I hear people are runing, there not runing the "Stock" brushless under ROAR definitions. The 4300 is considered stock. But I'm herring that what is running is the 5800 and that is not a "stock class" motor. From what I'm hearing is that there using the "STOCK" program on the 5800. Sure.. Right..... I realy believe that. My vote is if its a 4300 then it should run in stock, other than that, its a mod.
bustedparts 11-16-2004, 04:39 PM That sound about right fish.
JimRuninit 11-16-2004, 05:35 PM Like I mentioned earlier. I perfer brushed but I like the challenge of running with the brushless. :dude:
JimRuninit 11-16-2004, 05:38 PM If I had the 5800 brushless personally I'll run in the Mod class. Why would I want to run in the stock class?
DamageIncRacing 11-16-2004, 07:44 PM You can run a 5800 as a "stock", but you need to turn your throttle epa down to 70% AT MOST. There are guys running theirs anywhere from 60-70% in touring cars. I ran mine at 60, 65, and 70% last weekeend, but until I can control it through the corners I wont be running any Mod classes soon. Put me wherever and I'll run it. I don't really care one way or the other, as long as I'm racin'. :devil: :D
kevinm 11-16-2004, 08:08 PM ... But I'm herring that what is running is the 5800 and that is not a "stock class" motor...
Now we know what kind of fish he is.
Anyway, the 5800 is basically a 15-turn (a really GOOD one), so they should be in Mod class. The 4300 is probably about like a 21-turn (with low timing), so it might be a reasonable approximation of a stock. (I've never seen one run. This is just based on a magazine review and the fact that it's a 10.5 turn "Y" wound motor. 10.5 x 2 = 21) I definitely wouldn't rely on turning down the throttle. OOPS! I accidentally bumped the knob. Plus you can teach it to run full throttle with the transmitter set at 70%.
WarpWind 11-16-2004, 09:38 PM Hey, GLRC is going to have a brushless class in stadium? Might have to check that out. And just for what it's worth, RnL last year allowed the brushless motors in mod, but the 4300 wasn't allowed in stock. It's close to a stock motor, but has the torque similar to a 10 turn brushed motor.
DamageIncRacing 11-17-2004, 06:44 AM I guess thats another good thing about my "Ray Gun" Radio... You can't "accidentally" bump the button and turn up the throttle, you actually have to go into the throttle settings setup and change it, can't be done while driving. :D :devil:
David Washburn 11-17-2004, 08:17 AM same here eric
erik z 11-23-2004, 08:32 AM was wondering where everyone is racin at this saturday give me a call

It's close to a stock motor, but has the torque similar to a 10 turn brushed motor. Any track I have been to runs brushless with mod.R&L,Lazer,The nite race in AnnArbor and so on.Why is it such a problem here in grand rapids ?Maybe becouse non stock motors have been allowed in the past to run in stock and the Track Director let it go .I think so if they would have done this wright the frist time this would not be a problem now.If non aporoved stock motors run in stock then you should just call it run what every you want not stock. As Warpwind said they sould be in with mod
