4.8 to 5.0 boost?

bwsk8 · #1 03-03-2003, 07:54 PM

Say you have a 3.8 or 4.0(if there is one) and you installed the boost kit and controller since it adds 1.0 to the motor could you go 4.8 or 5.0.

Show us a link to this "Boost Kit"

Yes there is a 4.0

I belive hobbytron.com

The kit that is made by Tomy and you need the 4 channel remote to use.

oh that one. I think it only slows it down when not on boost & returns it to full when boost. Its a gives off a few more volts than a regular in boost though

Dont think a boost will add extra 10K rpm though.. 1 or 2K maybe realistic

The only real rpm boost you can get from a motor (atleast the only 1 I know of) is by giving the motor more voltage aka dual or triple bat mod. I'm a lil skeptical about that 4.0 motor. The tomy booster cars only cut power when unboosted and then they give the motor full juice (normal car spin) when the boost buttons pressed.

I know a second Mod to get more Power to the motor: Mosfets.
If you change the transistors of the BitPlate with Mosfets IRLM2502 you get really Power.
My LXX Bosters makes Wheelies whith 3.0Motors.
No need to get a second Bat.

Mosfets are really Fun!

hows the runtime on a single cell w/mosfet upgrade??

Kadettcab · #9 04-02-2003, 11:48 PM

The runtime is much the same like without Mosfets.If its without 5min its with Mosfet 4 1/2 min.
But if you charge your Bit without Controller but whith a Charger or DigiQ Combat Tank Controller the runtime is approximate 15min.

The mod only takes 1 1/2 hour for a beginner.
For an Advanced it takes only 30min.
But it gives much Fun to you for ever

Then why could we not just create a dual cell and when you activated the button it would allow the current to flow thru given you some serious boost?.

Why has this not been done yet? Am I missing something?

Maybe if there was a way with a dual cell setup to only engauge the second cell with the press of a botton, or something. That'd give you a real boost in current and, thus, rpms! (I think)
