This is a chassis dynamometer (dyno) that measures the rpm, kv, voltage, current draw, power and torque output of your vehicle. This dyno is great tool for motor analysis, ESC (boost) adjustment, brushless sensor adjustment, gearing calculation, tire selections, and much more. The dyno is coupled with to a knurled roller via a pulley and belt to accelerate the inertial mass. We will call this a ‘flywheel’ for simplicity. Our electronic board takes the flywheel’s inertia (resistance of an object to a change in its state of motion), measures the rate it takes to accelerate and calculates the output power and torque of your vehicle. Our dyno repeatedly measures and calculates power in small increments to produce an accurate graph on a PC of the engine’s power characteristics.

Our dyno is suitable for 1/12, 1/10, and 1/8 gas or electric vehicles. It incorporates an adjustable wheelbase design for up-to 370mm of allowable wheelbase; and 375mm of vehicle width.

Available now, starting at $699.99.
