You are running the 80a on 5s? I am very curious about that, as I have been thinking about an 80a to run my losi 1700kv on 5s. what do you think, would that be working in the long run? It's for a heavy buggy w/ truggy wheels. the peak amps shouldn't be too high with that motor.
thanks

yup, 5s on both of them. Kinda crossed my fingers, closed my eyes and pulled the trigger. I dropped a couple pinion teeth on both of them, from 4s. Even the lipo cut works, but you do have to manually set it to 5s, the auto doesn't catch 5s. The revo probably has about 15 cycles on it, the sc8ight maybe 5 or 6. The revo will hit a 8mph or so rolling backflip every time. A racing time situation where you are one it for a constant 15 min or so I don't think it would hold up, but for bashing around no problems so far. The motor gets about 150 or so, but the esc doesn't break a sweat. Running rhino 4900's.

While talking to somone at my local hobby shop i noticed a large 36x60mm motor behind them and it turned out to be a larg ducted fan motor from a plain. It is a himark 36-34-1850kv motor it looked like a good quality motor
and had all the corect size bolt holes, shaft size and is fined heat sink can.

It is rated at 1850kvand dose upto 22v and is rated around 1200wats and in the ductec fan setup will do 2000grams or 2 kg of thrust so i purchased the motor and put it in my buggy and its PURRFECT. With the 13t pinion and 46t spure it has just the right speed and the motor didnt even go above 65c and the esc and lipo's just got warm and i didnt even see the fan run on the MMM.

I stoped running it after 15min and seem it would still go for longer as i normaly only get 10min so the run time is also allot better.
This motor was also only $99 aus dollars and so far seems to be a good one and first run is better than the feigao motor ever was.:yipi:

looks good that motor. is it a 2- or four pole motor? there are some interesting alternatives amongst the plane motors.
