WOW..!! T-Maxx with 3 engines...!!

vectra

Bloody hell.. I find it hard enough to get one running right never mind tuning three of the buggers :eek:
Clicky Thingy ..!!

Those multiple engine jobs are always interesting to watch though, aren't they?

I have to say - if you want several engines - I reckon electric is the way to go.
Consider:
Symmetrical rpm
Symmetrical thrust
No tuning issues.
No double/triple vibration causing airbubbles in fuel lines.

BFassassin

he couldnt get any speed out of it it was just spinning the wheels any time he revved it

coolwings

I imagine he had amazing torque available.
It needs extra lead weights added, and maybe double wheels on each axle!

It's a bit academic.
A T-Maxx vs. a moped....
An Apache helicopter vs. a Shelby Mustang....
How about a Harrier Jump Jet against a pushbike !

It's why we have class rules for similar models / cars to race against each other.
