Leopard 3674 2200kv 5 Cell LiPo help please.

i assume you modded the water cooler on the T180, how did you mod yours in the end. Are you running a .150" flex or .187 on the 3674 motor. Thanks.

Decent amount of power, much more so in the torque area, has more get up and go when you hit the throttle. Can't hold the throttle down anymore with new setup, lake gets small real fast. Using the T180 and an H-7.

Can i ask what settings you used on the T180 as some have had the lvc cutting in much to soon & have had to set with no lvc & time runs so as not to go to low on battery capacity. Did you experience lvc cutting in to soon at all. Thanks.

Sounds good. I guess there are just so many ways to go. But I still have a stock 1800kv motor from PB Mystic. Maybe I will try 5S on that. I believe I can use the same motor mount out of Miss Geico for each of the motors 1500,1800 and 2030kv UL1
all fit. I believe Leopard will fit also. O.K. last question. What about the 3674 motor with a lower kv on 5s I guess I just want to try one of the Leopard motors just because what I have heard is that they seem to be built nice of high quality but still reasonable price. I get most of my stuff from OSE and like the service and they seem to have a lot.

I would say around 15 laps but this is about what we get around 5 minutes of racing at the local pond. Just a bunch of guys that want to go faster than each other. But a lot of fun. I guess it's an addiction....love it...

1600 - 1800 kv would work on 5s. Why not a 4074 leopard?

Yes, I unscrewed the stock water inlets and put a plate over either end. I tapped the top of the heat sink and added 90 water fittings. I think a few people have done that mod here.

I don't use the LVC, I just time my runs and use 7 degrees timing.

With a 3674 2200kv on 4s I'm doing mid sixties on gps in a JAE, still some tuning to be done. 5s puts me in the 70's but I only go for a few passes. I've seen that combo on 6s in the 80's but again just a few passes. I wouldn't run that motor consistently on anything higher than 4s.

Kenny , can you tell me what your trick is to put the JAE at mid 60's cause I got the same motor 3674 2200kv and etti 150 and can't get this thing pass mid 50's with h7 prop , what am I doing wrong here?

Don't have any tricks I know of. It's an all stock build including hardware. Using a .150 shaft with liner and the prop is back cut slightly and B/S, Gens Ace 4s 30c lipos cog at 13.5". Just had it out today and was hitting 60.8mph on GPS with 4s and a little chop. Thought I'd get more top end speed over the UL-1 but this is all I can squeeze, does have a lot more torque though and pulls out of the corners. Doesn't like the chop as much anymore with the added weight but I think I'm getting too much lift with the prop at the higher RPM. Need to take some lift out of it next, maybe try an S-15.

Looks good, wish I had glass to run on like that. The H-7 would scream on that water, make sure it's B/S well. Can't tell ya why the speeds are different, I'm heavy with all the paint I layed down and the new cowl I made, so I'm not sure. Come to the West Coast and we'll see!

[Serpents811]

The water here in the north east is really dense I see

That glass doesn't happen all the time , we were lucky that day lol sense then I did change the timing now it does wind up a little higher , it does pulls hard around the corners where I make my moves jajajajaja

[riggerhunter]

So what is the difference or should I say the advantage of the the 4074? You are talking running on 4s? Running a bigger prop I assume? Can I still run it on a .150 shaft? Also what kv for the 4s pack. Thanks.
