Re: cimulator cooling modification

Direct driving that wheel with the RS-550's through the Cimulator.... Looks like you could be getting 6,000 - 7,000 RPM. With that kind of speed, on what looks to be 8" diameter wheels... SCARY! At that speed, the molded on urethane could be thrown off at speeds approaching 250 feet per second . That could be lethal. Be careful around that thing!
