Hello YouTube viewers.
This is a short video of my Dual/Twin Brushless Motor conversion of a HoBao Hyper 7 Black Edition RC 1/8th Buggy.
I threw this mod together from spare parts for fun so I could say I built an extreme dual brushless 1/8th. On it's first run last year the central diff exploding for some reason, possibly the huge power or perhaps a defect in the product.
This time it was holding together ok and was wheel standing from the take-off power. I thought it was worth running inside to get my video camera and I'm glad I did. I thought I would share the video of black marks and smoke it was generating from launch.
Unfortunately over the last 6 months I've only managed to run the car for 5 minutes total. Once the new tyres arrive I'll video some high speed shots with a GPS.
Details about the car:
Chassis: HoBao Hyper 7 Black Edition
