    Hey bud great information in the video. I have a fully esc 24v with Traxxas 775, also through Eastcoast customs works greatly but my son keeps binding the last gear, in the #7 gear box in other words “the drive gear” , only the drivers side. passenger side is fine. Also I have 2 other p/w’s 1 porsh and a wrangler rubicon I installed a turbo toggle switch, on stock vehicle no esc so they can go from 12-18 or 12-24v either way, and they have the same gear boxes, but no problems so would you suggest anything? my next trick I’m going to try is adding a potentiometer to the variable speed throttle in series,and see if that will ease the pain on the drive gear. So that take off won’t be ass hard. let me know what you think?

    I'm not sure which of my questions to ask first but: I got my old gears off the original motor, but the new motor doesn't have the grip marks on the shaft like the original did. The new gear is slightly too large because of this. Is there a way to shim them, or will locktite or soldering hold up? Have a recommendation?

    Hello! Loved the video, I have a novice question for you. I mistakenly threw away my stock motors with the pinion gears and now I have no idea what size/teeth number pinion gear I need. I bought the Mltoys 775 motors but the 15t pinion gear that came with it will not fit the 1st stage steel gear. Do you know by chance what size I need, or a reference to point me in the correct direction?

    Any Old School power wheel can take the 18 volts with stock motors. Switches and petals I find go out first , however the time they do you'll need new plastic tires lol. Dirt and traction bands is what kills gearboxes also! 24 volts is easy to find chargers but it's too much for the system. Anyone that grabs a 6 volt battery and charger and add that to the system would get 8ish mph and it will last longer. Off road @ 24 volts , everything starts to cook.

  • @P_double_H
    @P_double_H Před 4 lety +1

    I'm planning to create a multi (2 or 3) Dewalt 20v battery system for my son's dune racer. I will keep the voltage at 20v but connect the batteries in parallel to increase capacity. I already 3d printed the battery mounts and planning to install them in the front so that he could use the back for toy storage. Its a lot easier than having to charge those big o bulky 12v batteries they come with. I'm hoping the stock motors hold fine at 20v under mostly concrete driveway conditions.
    I've also though about adding some 775 brushless titans, but then i would need to use two speed controllers and the gas pedal is a switch, so he would go full throttle and that's no bueno.
    Maybe I decide to go brushless when I find a variable gas pedal to install.

I don't want it to be too fast or powerful. I think I'll just upgrade the stock motors to some DC brushed 775 and I'll do the battery system swap.

    • @P_double_H
      @P_double_H Před 4 lety +1

      @@halliefab7929 I forgot to post an update on this. I ended up creating the DeWalt system I mentioned above. It runs very good. At 20v there is plenty of power and with two 6amp batteries the car will run for hours. The Dune Racer has a 2 speed gear selector so in 1sr gear it runs slower consuming less power. 2nd gear is at full 20v which is really fast and won't burn the stock motors. I am very happy with the conversion.
      If anyone else is interested in creating this system for your kids Power Wheels. I am selling the adapter for your DeWalt batteries. 1 for $20, or to for $35 shipped.

    • @dthrash86
      @dthrash86 Před 5 lety

      The wire should be fine, but sometimes the gearboxes melt from the SPEED, also sometimes the pinion on the motor is too thick to fit the proper gear to line up with the gears in the gearbox. I would swap motors for now and then see if you need to upgrade the box.

A 18V battery is much safer although the plastic stock gear will get destroyed if you ever want to put some grippy tires on it for better control. I suggest changing the stock gears to metal once especially only for the first gear ratio of the gear box of your daughters power wheel.

Motor upgrade is next on the list. She's doing a lemonade stand this weekend to pay for parts. If you want 18 volts do parallel. You'd need in series to get to 36 and use a resistor or potentiometer to adjust voltage to 24v or higher
      I would do series 20v with a potentiometer to dial the speed back a bit. You'd be at 40v
