GETTiNG FASTER! SUPERCAR MCD XS5 Max FT-R CARDiNAL RACiNG | RC ADVENTURES

I admit it.. I have been bitten by the speed bug. There is so much to know and learn.. and I'm enjoying every moment of it. This is the MCD 4WD XS5 Max FT-R I got from http://www.CardinalRacing.com. I know I am a "beginner" with these larger on road vehicles, but I have a few years of RC under my belt.. so I thought I would dive right in.. and have some fun. I outfitted this car with a GPS unit from SKYRC.. that records its PEEK speed onboard. I have also installed an MGM Controllers TMM 40063-3 for Cars X2-SERIES PRO 500 AMP (63V capable) Electronic Speed Controller, paired with a LEHNER 3080 sensored, brushless motor - Both Capable of 15s Lipo. That is insane. ESC: https://www.mgm-controllers.com/tmm-4... Motor: https://www.mgm-controllers.com/en/se... I am learning on 8S lipo.. and tuning the car after each run. There is so much to comprehend.. I am looking forward to installing a proper, high grade Gyro System to help keep the car straight at higher speeds on an uneven surface. I am using a Reefs RC "Beast 2000" Steering Servo, delivering just under 2000oz of torque at 12v, and over 2000oz at 14.8 volts. I got this servo at http://www.ReefsRC.com ! Lets get into some deets: The XS5 MAX is designed with a 1:1 scale realism of a mid-engine supercar. We developed the XS5 Max with advanced modelling techniques. Sophistication and refinement were the main inspiration keywords while creating the body. Sculpted twisting lateral surfaces gliding from the front to the back both vertically and horizontally creating a dynamic design language. Styling features such as wide muscular fenders, low roof-line and vertical head lamps help forming a powerful stance. Besides styling works a special effort was put on the aerodynamics of the body to create a balanced down-force on the front and on the back to keep control on the ground for dynamic cornering.
