I am in the process of converting my TT MT A4 0.28 engine to electric  using the following set up :

1) Leopard Motors LBP 4274/2000 KV ( http://www.leopardhobby.com/product/product_veiws.asp?id=1344&functionID=01020220 )
2)Leopard 150 amp ESC   ( http://www.leopardhobby.com/product/product_veiws.asp?id=1369&functionID=01020501 )
3) battery 14.8 V 35 C 3700 mah Hard case lipo .

I used the same car with the 0.28 engine earlier , being an electric fan I decided to change it .

Here are image of the car with the engine  and now with the motor  Wink Grin

Great conversion! But, can I point out that your LiPo is not gonna supply enough for the motor..
What conversion are you using?

Thanks

35 C X 3.7 A = 129.5 AMPS

The Motor consumption at 14.8 V is below 100 amps .

Hence I think if my calcualations are right it should last around 5-7 mins at full throttle.

Mr.Sai,I think you should move up to 5000 mah batteries.As Divyam has said,you will be risking your lipos.Is there a chance you will be carrying leopard motors here?

PS:Happy to see another guy getting into cars.

yes i will be carrying leopard motors  in the near future .
actually this conversion was to  try them out.
I also have an out runner to try out on one of my FPV Planes .

Well as for the batteries those were the ones I had  with me .
I am still to try and see if 4 S is ok or if I should move up to 5S or may be even 6 S as this motor is rated upto 6 S.
Tried it out now and found the conversion per say has worked out .

My only concern in moving to higher voltage is that the engine 0.28 Practical R.P.M.(R.P.M.)    3,000 ~ 35,000 rpm
Output(BHP/RPM)    2.40 BHP / 30,000 RPM  .
Hence with 4S  max voltage being 16.8 V x 2000 KV = 33600 rpm which is about close to the max practical RPM of the engine. Thus I really don't want to push the gear box beyond the max operating rpm  the engine would have provided .

On 5 S the RPM at max voltage will  we around 42000 rpm , I guess this should not affect the gear box much but just in case.

Even i am inquisitive for the mount.
BTW i dont think RPM of any range below 45-50 thousand can harm the truck.
You need to change the gears to metal though since this is a S28 and not a S50
