fastest spinner ant

Hi Im just wondering what the highest rpm spinner ant is?

I'm not sure about others but all of the Inertia ants and fleas run at about 15,000rpm- The main thing to keep in mind at these speeds is to have a perfectly balanced disc otherwise the vibrations will make it undriveable.

15,000 rpm from a 7.2v fleaweight is unbelievable :shock:

i get about 10,000 from mine

the brushless motors used in ants haver very high kv

I think the original DBA one-tooth used a GWS 2205/5t outrunner (2160kv) @ 4s, so 31000rpm....

Instead of making new topics I will make this into a mini thread
First question
Can anyone make a blade for an ant from metal (prefrably someone with a milling machine)
Thanks

Question no 2
Is there any reciever compatiable with a planet 5 that is really small
Or alternativley does any one have a really small reciever with a radio system for sale (prefrabley spectrum)
Thanks

i sold my radio system mate a couple of days ago :/

i have a tiny spektrum rx if that's any use to you.

Thanks but I only have a planet 5 and a giant cod
The spektrum would only be useful with a transmitter
Thanks for replying :mrgreen:
