Nice, straight to the point!
Lookong at both cars, I feel it's time to say goodbye to my external BEC, with every new ESC internal BECs are better and better. One more battery, some more wires to have in the way, some more weight, and no real reason, any more...
Yeah i sometimes run a reciever pack. Thanks hope it helps someone else.
Yes sir speed king in the house RcFam4Life 👏🏽🤝🏾🤙🏾💪🏾😎💯💥👏🏽

Thats cool 😎 👍 I know you are going to set a record with the Arrma Felony too. Love watching your passes ❤
thanks bro, i may have to get a Felony to make a pass
Awesome
thanks bro
cool behind the scene video
yeah I'm not usually making how to vids but maybe i should.
Good vid! Thanks brotha
thanks for watching,
@@philipjolley1015 Thank you
Nice!! Think I’m going to test with limitless body on first.
Thanks brother, you will love it.
Good demo 👍 nice one brother all the best ! Take care 😎🏅💯
Thanks man, hope its helpful.
@@philipjolley1015 I don't have the limitless but always good to know ✊💯 thanks
Good info bro,I wish I could lower mine as low as yours but my road Is not smooth enough!!
Yeah I understand that. My road isn't exactly smooth but it works.
Awesome vid! Have you ever put a big power plant in and not removed any downforce? Just curious to know what kind of speeds you can expect without trimming the wing and taking those front aero tabs off.
I haven't. They would cause so much drag and I set them up to go fast.
I'm runnin a max 5 esc with a tp motor with a 27 tooth pinion on 6s and it flys. I have to rotate tires for every run when i drift with it, complete tire shredder.
Haven't tested the top end speed yet due to crappy roads around idaho.
Good advice on the spring set up!
Thanks, just glad it can help people
Really glad you you did this video
Do you adjust the droop screws on the back as well
Thanks Phil
No problem. thanks for watching. No on the rear it sits high but I like the height. gives it a nice rake.
Great Phil
Thanks buddy
Great information brother what kind of speeds can you get with the tp 4050 I like how it fits right in with out having to reverse the motor mount
I'm sure it would run around 140 or close to it. Ive ran 148 with the same setup in a gt Limitless.
Thank you for this brother! Very great information... 🤜🏾🤛🏼#rcfam4life
Thanks for watching.. I hope it helps
Philip Jolley it definitely did
Nice video....very helpful Phil. Do you you run some toe out on the front end?
Thanks, yeah there is some from the factory.
I am waiting on my first limitless to show up. Love your builds. I was wondering why did you flip your motor on your car? Is it just a longer can or for weight?
Can't beat a Limitless they are awesome.. Yes i Flipped it because its a longer can.
Great vid Philipp. What tp4050 are you using?
thanks, the blue car has a 2100 kv 4050
Nice tips vid from the King of speed!🤟Would you recommend the same settings for the Infraction as far as preloads? Keep rippin bro!😎👊
Thanks, no the infraction I had needed alot more preload on the front. But all else is same.
Do you drill a hold in the front upper arms to access the droop screws easier?
Yes,
Cool video I just picked one up testing for drag for right know
Thanks brother, can't go wrong with a Limitless.
@@philipjolley1015 think I need a bit bigger spur on spool
@@felixotero1 maybe get the 39
@@philipjolley1015 so you have braking issues with spool I'm powered up on esc and radio having issues stopping quicker , just dropped a video as well
@@felixotero1 no, but I have brakes turned up.
Great video Phil! Hey question: How do you set up your front end? Like camber?
Thanks, camber is usually -2deg and toe is stock. Whatever they come with
@@philipjolley1015 Thanks brother.💪
Thanks for sharing your tricks n tips. That's rapid 127mph for open wheeled Limitless without GT body shell on 💪 👊 I'm guessing you run Spool for gearing
Thanks, I've been 151 on 6s with the orange car, 152 mph on 8s. Yes stock center spool. No spools in diffs.
Awsome video Phil quick question for you. How do you get the LIMITLESS to run straight as an arrow?
Thanks, this is all I do. Then make sure droop is even left to right. If lifting the center of front of car both tires should leave the ground at same time. If not adjust droop to make them even. And I run a good servo.
Do you run the spring collars in similar positions with a GT body? Thanks for sharing.
Yes but stiffer all around.
I need you to do gears video for the channel Phil!great video.
Gears are a little harder do do because depending on the road you have ect.
Ok cool
🍻👍🏽💯
thanks man
Looks good 👍. What about your wheel alignment?
Thanks. Toe is stock. Camber is 2 deg neg front. 0 rear.
Hey Brother jolly what about the very front of the body shell if you cut that out maybe let some air in to help keep the motor and everything cool or would that be a bad call 💪🏽💪🏽👍🏽👍🏽👊🏽👊🏽💯
on the orange car i cut a hole in the side to let air rush in to the esc.
@@philipjolley1015 right on brother you know your cars that's for sure 👊🏽👊🏽
Build it Light and Wind it Tight!!! 😎
Thanks brother.
Hey I was wondering do you run stack the fluid or lockers on your cars
Stock diffs, will be trying a locker in front only soon. I dont care for the feel of a locked rear myself.
How would u do the suspension if u test run on a little uneven roads so the car can bounce but stay straight stiff up the rear an leave the front lose or wats the other option
I always run the rear stiff. You can soften the front to have a little give but make sure it doesn't compress too much and rub.
@@philipjolley1015 ok I got u
The orange one for me ,
Phill do you pull the front wheels in so they are straight , stock mine point out a lot
Cheers
I never mess with toe, I have no way of measuring correctly and the cars run straight so I'm happy.
@@philipjolley1015 then you are the man , the reason why I asked was iv been watching how formula 1 race cars are built and Lewis Hamilton has a car made when he enters a corner the wheels toe out , when his on a straight they full bore they point straight ,
Thanks Phil
@@philipjolley1015 the toe is terrible from arrma Phil I have to adjust mine on all of mine
@@Rcghostnrk really? I've never adjusted any of mine.
@@philipjolley1015 while you should cause arrma is off lol keep up the great work for the sport brother if it works don't change it lol
Thanks so much Phill! I really appreciate you taking the time to do this man, you rock brother.
not a problem. If you need anything else just lmk
No change with the shock oil?
no sir. I feel they barely do anything in a speed run..
What's your ride height? Do you change is with the droop screws only? Or droop screws and shock collar combination? Thanks
I honestly don't know. Low, as possible without dragging. I use droop screws and then adjust spring tension with collars. On my orange limitless I don't run a splitter. (Allows me to drop car even lower)
@@philipjolley1015 Thanks. Was wondering which TP motor you'd recommend, one that would drop in the stock motor location on 8s. For speed runs.
@@JimmyKay1976 tp power 4050 2100kv
@@philipjolley1015 I only see the 2300kv on their site
@@JimmyKay1976 maybe sold out. Idk.
4050cm vs 4070cm for drag what you think bigger means runs cooler longer bout it right? N maybe rpm ?, what’s your opinion
I would use the 4070. longer,more torque,more power available.
Quick questions whats the kv limit for your limitless?
Kv limit? Are you asking about the kv I run? 2200
@@philipjolley1015 yeah the kv on your thank you
@@willpar271 2200
@@philipjolley1015 thank you!
there is a big difference between. X8s & XLX ?
Not that I have seen. The mmx8s runs cooler has better ripple also. Castle says xlx is still king but mmx8s has impressed me.
@@philipjolley1015 thank you
Shouldn't you just remove the droop screws wont that make it set low as possible
No removing them would allow the suspension to rise up fully. The screws tighten down and raise the a arms which lowers the car.
@@philipjolley1015 ok so i had it backwards i need my droop screws tightened basically all the way down on my limitless i just got it have a max5 a 2200kv Poseidon and of course a phillip jolley cap pack 😁
@@travisdrury5556 yes, just screw them down till it's as low as you like. Make sure both are even.
Can I send mine to you please
Yes, I do builds for people. Email me phildogg6@yahoo.com
Hi bro I m new in arrma driver World...I would like receive your help your support for build completely arrma limitless inlcude best specificactions for radio...best setup motor battery gearbox chasis aerodynamics tires...for long race not for quarter mile
ok lmk exactly what you need to know.
thanks I need to know about how I can make setup arrma limitless only just for race in circuit not quarter mile..
@@sanmiguelarcangel3224 I really don't track race so i'm not sure
@@philipjolley1015 thanks
When can I send you mine out brother so you can set it up for me for 130s? It’s angel you got my number can text me anytime
Anytime.
Philip Jolley I would love to send it out next week if that’s ok with you
@@angelteamnolimit624 yes.
There's more to it other than shocks and power plant! What about camber and toe-in? Two of the most important settings for doing speed runs! Doesn't matter how much power you got if you can't control it! Pretty pointless video! Thanks for nothing!
Lol, thanks for your feedback but when the Limitless first came out stock camber and toe settings got me 152mph with these suggestions. I had the fastest limitless for awhile.
Good info 👍
thanks brother.
