Plum Quick Bandit + 500 AMP Controller OR Executioner w/ Stock Controller
I have an 08 Club Car Precedent. 12" Wheels with Low Profile Tires. Neighbor hood is flat and its only used for cruising around, usually with a pretty light load.
I would like to get the cart in the 28 mph range and am looking for advise on getting a Plum Quick Bandit + 500 AMP Controller + 4 Gauge Wires OR just going straight for the PQ Executioner. My understanding is that the Executioner does not require a new controller or 4 Gauge wires, so it is a seemingly a much more affordable route. Would appreciate your input. Thx! |
Re: Plum Quick Bandit + 500 AMP Controller OR Executioner w/ Stock Controller
suggest you also look into upgrading brakes to disk....
I drove my 2005 club car at 24mph and stopping was not the greatest (stock motor and alltrax 500 amp controller set to limit at 400 amps) |
Re: Plum Quick Bandit + 500 AMP Controller OR Executioner w/ Stock Controller
Skymast,
I think you've got this backwards. The Bandit is the motor that allows you to keep all stock components. The Executioner is more aggressive and requires upgrading your wires and controller. |
Re: Plum Quick Bandit + 500 AMP Controller OR Executioner w/ Stock Controller
the point about upgrading the brakes is a great one..........these things arn,t meant to stop a cart going 25+ mph and is iffy at best..............you just don,t see anyone pointing it out....................................8)

**** good point about the brakes. I've got Jakes disk brakes on my list. Luckily, my OEM rear brakes and Saharas are stopping my cart fairly safe. I only go full speed when I'm on a flat highly visable surface.
Another point to make concerns fast lifted carts: That high center of gravity requires caution when cornering. Wheels with a high offset help considerbly. I use a 3" lift and I get all the clearance and looks I need, with a reduced roll-over risk. Happy carting :mrgreen: BTW: I just put in new Trojans :mrgreen: I'll have to re-GPS my top speed, as it feels much faster 8) |

Guys, i really appreciate your comments about brakes / gravity but this thread is specifically about a motor / controller issue and its now defocused ...

skymast, you have a point :roll: But, tahoedawgz71 pretty much answered your question, we just discussed the safety issues with going fast so others that read your thread will understand the consequences of going that fast on a golf cart.
The bandit will run with stock everything. If you add a bigger controller get bigger wires. 4 gage is good, 2 gage is better. As far as the Executioner, check the Plum Quick website, or maybe someone else will chime in. I have a commander with stock controller/wires, it runs great. (28mph). I'm getting a DCX500IQ, HP soleinoid and 2 gage wires. :thumbup: My torque should more than double and my top speed should be about the same, maybe a tad faster. Hope this helps |
