Vampire Racing motor

[kyfran95220]

Hello all,

I Just want to know what do you think about those news motors ?

The vampire-Racing AB+


I am very curious and would like to know more about them (I have ordered a 6.5t and I am waiting for it)

We only had them arrive here in the country this week, early testing has been excellent with them and the spec and features are very good too. Also at a very keen price too......

Motors have been sent to several team drivers this week and as of yesterday they are BRCA legal too so we could see some in action from this weekend onwards.

Some first information about them here: http://www.area52.cc/reviews/923-sne...ss-motors.html

We have yet to try them on the track.

Will there be any 13.5 or 17.5 in them

These are planned for later in the year, so yes.

I've received mine !

seems good but Can you give me an idea about the gearing ratio for the 6.5t please ?

After 15min I have noted 70°C. so it stays quite cool with my b-max (87t spur and 19t pinion)

I ran mine for the first time at Kidderminster national this weekend and was VERY impressed

The gear ratios I ran were

2wd 8.5 motor = 8.4 / 1
2wd 7.5 motor = 9.2 / 1
Note this was on a very tight technical layout, I would run the same gearing say indoors but be +1 tooth on what I would call an average outdoor track.

4wd 7.5 motor = 8.5 / 1
4wd 6.5 motor = 9.3 / 1 (anticipated but not actually ran)
The Sunday track was more open so I think this could be already my average outdoor track gearing.

I hope to run again this weekend so will update anything I find out after then.
