Good video! My favorite New Bright RC is this yellow Hummer H2 I got when I was 10. (I'm 29 now) Played with it a lot as a kid and even early in my adult hood, but pulling it out again yesterday, it still runs however the battery was darn near useless now. (not that I am surprised) Naturally I have considered seeing I can mod it to use my 3S lipo I have and that's actually how I found your channel! I should note I am not in the RC hobby, but I know a thing or 2 about electronics just from modding Nerf blasters over the years.

Was at Walmart on last Friday and Picked up a 1/5 scale NewBright Polariz. Thing is HUDGE! Got it for a great deal since it was from 2002. But... As I got it home? The Battery and the Charger were "Missing"... I could of returned it. But nah. So I hooked up my Car Battery Jump starter that had a 12v DC plug on it. MAN this thing FLIES! The car is alredy pretty broken up, but whatever. I can glue that stuff back on. But what gets me is that the body is held on with the TriWing security bit. So I have to get some long reach security bit bolts. I figure its already a 12.8 volt pack on there. SO just the 15 or so volts with voltage drop ran to the bottom works out pretty good. Plan to mod some REAL LED lights on the body and go from there.

Will this drain the lipo battery and make it low voltage if you run it too long? Please answer
@MapleBoarder78
5 жыл бұрын
Yes, you need to run a low voltage alarm on the lipo balance plug or you may end up draining it past 3.0v per cell and puffing the lipo. My 5500mah lipo would probably last around 45min, so when I don’t use an LVD, I just make sure I don’t run it more than 20min or so before I throw it back on the charger.

I put a 12.8V on a 30 dollar new bright buggy that originally came with a 6v battery. Its speed quadrupled. The acceleration was not crazy but steady. On the cement the motor was fine, but on the grass the extra power ate the motor teeth up. It was worth the experiment though.

@MapleBoarder78
5 жыл бұрын
Jason Gaudet I don’t know much about upgrading the servo in toy grades, but for Lipo batteries, my go to has been Zippys or Turnigy from Hobby King. Depends on whether you want 2s or 3s as well as the size you need. You may need a small battery with less capacity if there isn’t much room for a battery underneath the body, or you may be able to fit a nice big battery like I did in this truck. You’ll have to do some measuring and then check specs online for what battery will fit. Good luck with your project!

Correct. The motor is quite weak. The two biggest reasons New Bright does this is #1, safety. The slower the truck is, the less likely it will harm a child and cause a lawsuit. And #2 is that a weaker motor is less likely to damage the cheap drivetrain components. Unfortunately New Bright’s largest sector of customers is children around 4-8 years old, so their products are often tailored toward that age range.

Might be worth looking for a older nikko,tyco etc that uses a 540 motor & put electronics into or maybe just a rear gearbox from like a used 1:10th scale Dunno what the electronics of this can handle but maybe you can mod the gearbox & put in like a 80t crawler 540 motor on the stock electronics on 2s lipo power ? If you can figure out the general load current of this motor on 3s lipo maybe you can find something that upgrades the torque significantly while not overloading the electronics on voltage or how much current it drains.
