Just searching the web the other day and came across a guy who makes his own motors from scratch. He says his motors allow XMods to go 45+ mph, Yes...45+ mph. Whoa! For your viewing pleasure he also provides a video. CLICK HERE to view the video of a xmod with one of his motors. What do you think? :?:

to start winding your own motors, i recommend getting a stock motor to start out with and just unwind the armature. While unwinding each stack, you want to count how many times you are unwinding it. I believe the stock is either 60 or 80 turns. I forgot since its been a while. Dont really remember anymore, but all you have to do is pretty much unwind all of the three stacks and start out wind winding each stack 49 turns each. make sure you wind each stack where it wraps nice and tight.. The higher the wind, the more torque, the lower the wind, the more higher rpm's. there's actually more to it in making a motor, but i think ive given a good idea for all of you to experiment and learn for yourselves.. :)

Interesting information... Thanks :o

Re: ***Fastest Xmod Motor Ever***

Motor sure is winding out...now I really need to learn how to hand wind motors...

If you've got a 12T pinion, try shimming the motor up and use the blue gear (meant for the 11 tooth pinion)...since xmods don't make any gears above 11T

Re: ***Fastest Xmod Motor Ever***

sure does :) your car does look pretty fast, about how fast iss it with your motor? also since I know you build motors, maybe you can help me out, I bought a 12 tooth pinion for my xmod, but I now need to find a gear for it, any suggestions?

Re: ***Fastest Xmod Motor Ever***

Wait... That looks like my video!!

I never said that my XMOD motors would go 45 mph on 4 cells.. that sounds too far fetched!! My old 8Cell Mini-Z Dragster may have went that fast or even faster, but never an XMOD yet.. Dont worry though, I will soon get there!! Actually, i dunno, I might be up there with my 6 CELL / Internal Fet Upgrade Dragster but dont think its 45mph yet. If I do create a setup for that speed and beyond, it will only be good for a few runs just like my 8Cell mini-Z Dragster where the motor will be burning hot or even smoking after a few speed runs.. Its just like the real NHRA Dragsters.. Their engines are only good for a few good runs.. When I do, Ill be sure to post another video here.. Hope this clears up the confusion!! :D
