Where's a good place to buy Plett's and 1600 to 1700kv is what I would be wanting for a buggy?

By the way I like my T8 1700kv on 5s in my Hyper 9e, just have'nt ran it enough to find out if the magnet is going to come off or not, hopefully it won't. I ended up buying the 1550kv truggy motor to, but don't think I will be using it as my truggy suffered an early retirement this weekend test jump distances on our new track build, the jumps got reshaped a little. :oops:

The pletty made for buggy/truck use, are only available in 3150kv, 3000kv and 2300kv.

Hey man, whats the price of that handsome plettenberg:whistle: ? If I don't have better place to spent my moneys, I know what do I do. Tomorrow the "Jammin X2 CRT Pro" arrives to my home. What kind of motor do you guys prefer to truggy ? If the Tekin RX8 main motor is not good choise, then I would buy one plettengerg.

Temperatures are not high even in summer here in north europe, Finland. I have been look for 6S LiPo's and 2200kv motor, or something like that.

The RX8 ESC looks cool.

Track or bashing 2200kv on 6s is too much for track....

1700Kv maybe. Anyways, if I buy plettemberg, then 5s is then enough.

Icare-rc.com sells the handsome one I have for $356,-....it's on sale.

i hate to be incompetent but is there a reason to pay $156 more for a plettemburg over something like a neu

I own both, and built qaulity doesn't compare. Power and spool up of the plettenberg is about the same as the C50 Hacker. The neu's produce plenty of torque, but I need crazy rpm's and quick spool ups.

maybe yo ucan answer this for me. right now i can get the hacker c50 8xl 2230kv for like $240 and i am tempted to get it for my truggy (RC8T) cuz i have always wanted to try the hacker motors but arent hacker's 2 pole? and neu is 4 pole? i run only neu's right now and love them and i have been told that 4 pole is better for more low end torque and punch and that 2 pole is better for high speed. is this true? would the hacker be better suited for my inferno gt conversion?

I only have the Tekno nues, so I have no idea how the regular neus behave. But based on that, I prefer the C50 in a onroad car for crazy acceleration. My tekno neus are fast but it takes a bit longer to get there.

I like the hacker c50 L can motors in 1/8 buggies and stuff with lighter wheels/tires. I tried the c50 xl motors in the lst and muggy then swapped to a 1521 of similar kv. The neu handles the larger heavier wheels/tires better. Less heat on the battery, esc and motor, with the same gearing. I do notice it is lightly less aggressive on acceleration, but I do run 50% punch control with both setups.

Stick with a 4 pole for the truggy.

so i really want to try one of these hackers now. would the c50 8xl be too much for a buggy or inferno conversion? would it be good for a truggy though? the other consideration is the c50 11L which is a bit smaller but is it enough for the buggy or would it get hot? which is the best all round motor of the 2? by the way, i only have tekno neus also. i have had both the round and square cans. right now i have 2 1515 tekno neu square canned 1y motors. one is in my truggy and one is in my buggy. great motors. but the reason i want a hacker so bad is becuase if the germans build a brushless motor anything like their cars i know it will kick ass.

You are right about the kicking ass part. The L-can is enough for the buggy.

Holy smokes
 

get this! so just when i was about to buy the c50 8xl from impaktrc for $240 i decided to check ebay and i found a c50 7xl 2250kv for $100 barely used and money back guranatee from a 100% feedback seller. i also bought from him a hacker b50 8xl and a lehner 2250-6 for another $300, both of them brand new. so for $400 i just got 3 german motors, 2 of them new and one slightly used. wow! cant beat that.

Great deal you found man.
