What is the best motor to put on the e-savage?
 
The title say most..



What's the best motor i can put into my E-savage with 4s lipo?


I want a nitro killer in both acc and topspeed :D

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 12:25 PM

well, it kinda doesnt go up.
the lehner is, as the name goes, a basic.
so it is their low end motor.
the nue on the other hand is a high end motor.
what would you want?
also keep in mind that the nue requires a mgm compro or quark.

Serum 02.24.2007 12:28 PM

a lehner is 36mm in diameter and a neu without fins 39. perhaps the 39 doesn't fit the e-savage?

Serum 02.24.2007 12:29 PM

Welcome to the forum bytheway!

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 12:31 PM

yeah welcome aboard.
also with the basic xxl you have a 4mm shaft, no 32p pinion with 4mm bore.
so that would have to be custom drilled.:026:

D3nic 02.24.2007 12:44 PM

Well, but 2000watt is more than all the other motors??

the std motor is a 550 sized, 55mm diameter?

Serum 02.24.2007 12:46 PM

No, a 540/550 motor is 36 mm in diameter

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 12:47 PM

the neu 15 series are in between 700 and 3000 watts.
the stock motor are 36mm.
how much room do you have for your motor?

Serum 02.24.2007 12:50 PM

Guys, cursing isn't helping any of us.
Jolly, it's not a contest..


Don't stare at the 2000 watt thing too long.

Please read the sticky i wrote in the brushless section, it will explain quite a bit.

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 12:55 PM

sorry bout that.
keep in mind; the power the motor produces depends on the batts.

D3nic 02.24.2007 01:01 PM

66mm long, 40mm in diameter..

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 01:05 PM

you have that much room?
then i'd say a neu 1512/2.5d 2000Kv or maybe 15122d 2600Kv
but then again, what do i know:p

D3nic 02.24.2007 01:49 PM

i need speed too ! :P..


a feigao 8-10l have more kv than that?

Serum 02.24.2007 01:51 PM

Did you read the thread i suggested you?

D3nic 02.24.2007 02:16 PM

Now i did.... but i want a nitro killer in speed too not just acc.. so 45mph would be nice.. and thats why i'm reading here.. to find the right motor for me..

Serum 02.24.2007 02:26 PM

45 mph takes a strong drivetrain.

D3nic 02.24.2007 02:32 PM

i will upgrade if it break.. i just want the best motor, plz ;'(

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 03:07 PM

better go 6s then.

D3nic 02.24.2007 03:26 PM

K, that was just my plan with 4s, i havnt buyed annything.. which motor should i choose then, some quali plz..


6s motor, what should i take??

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 03:34 PM

Neu 1512 2.5d (kv=2000)
gets you to 45mph on 6s, might be hot though.

Serum 02.24.2007 04:17 PM

that's way too hot jolly.. 44000 rpm...

4S good cells will get you at 45mph. I am still worried about the drivetrain if it means anything to you..

jollyjumper 02.24.2007 04:19 PM

yes, the e-savage has plastic sliders.:013:

D3nic 02.24.2007 04:36 PM

can put alu shafts on with a little mod.. dont think on that..

Serum 02.24.2007 04:39 PM

diffs?

D3nic 02.25.2007 07:12 AM

e-maxx diff mod :)

Serum 02.25.2007 07:25 AM

the e-maxx diffs are not considered very strong. plus you can't tune them with oil.

4S would be enough to get your e-savage at 45mph. take the motor that brings you at about 30-35000 rpm. If you are looking for a budget system, take a mamba-maxx controller, a Wanderer XL motor and you should be good to go. Though if i recall corectly, the XL cans might be too long.

D3nic 02.25.2007 07:29 AM

im looking for quali.. plz dont think on my drivetrain...

D3nic 02.25.2007 11:08 AM

What about this motor? neu 1512/1.5D

Serum 02.25.2007 11:10 AM

4S would be enough to get your e-savage at 45mph. take the motor that brings you at about 30-35000 rpm.

D3nic 02.25.2007 11:15 AM

45mph is a minimum.. will a 1512/1.5D give enough power for wheelies? will it get to hot?

Serum 02.25.2007 11:30 AM

This must be your first brushless setup. 45 mph isn't a bashing speed. Yes, drivetrain killing torque at demand. wheelies are not a problem.

D3nic 02.25.2007 11:32 AM

Again i have to say: i want a nitro killer.. most nitro mt's run 45mph....



why take sth bad when i can start with the best??


i have mamba comp. x on my vendetta :P

tallyram 02.25.2007 12:42 PM

one thing i don't understand- the kind people here offer help and advice based on their personal experiences and the experiences of all the other people talking on these forums, so why won't you take their advice? there is a reason for using 1/8th diffs and like drivetrain on 1/10th brushless rc trucks! i don't think that you can do enough to your drivetrain to let it handle what you want. i think you should have started out with another platform of truck!

D3nic 02.25.2007 01:11 PM

i have a slipper clutch i can adjust.. i can put all the e-maxx shafts and diffs.. im sure its not a problem..

D3nic 02.25.2007 01:19 PM

but, isnt it right when i say, that the neu motors with more kv have less torque??

D3nic 02.25.2007 01:33 PM

a hv-maxx have a kv on 4400!! isnt that a better motor??



sry for many questions, i'm a bit confused ;)

Serum 02.25.2007 01:40 PM

I have got the slight feeling you didn't read my thread completely in the brushless section..

tallyram 02.25.2007 01:58 PM

a slipper clutch can't do all the work, something WILL give. as for emaxx shafts and diffs, they are less than desirable in your application!

D3nic 02.25.2007 02:03 PM

what about the upgraded e-maxx shafts and diffs??


Serum: sry about that, im just confused..

so a higer kv motor have less torque..

but i still dont know how much torque vs kv i need to create a mt that can make wheelies on demand and to make it fast as hell..


is the quali different so big from a hv-maxx to a neu??


whats best, neu or lehner??

matto247 03.23.2007 08:53 PM

the hv maxx sucks dude it sounds like u dnt want to listen to the people that know so much more then u no offense i would listen to them.
