that's impossible, it's a highamp version. But why on earth do you want a large motor like that with such an absurd high kv range???!!! get a much, much lower kv range you simple need to gear it different.

I am sure that with the appropriate batteries the 2280/5 will draw 200 amps+ on 24 cells allready..

You need to reconsider that kv range, and change your gearing, perhaps getting the motor directly to the inputshaft or get a centerdiff, you can use a much lower gearing with that torque..Those large motors can't be compared to the micro 1940's you had. the torque is huge.

You could consider that high kv rating if you are planning on running 20-22 cells..

think different with those large motors.. it no longer is a hunt for high rpm's. It's all about the torque!

It no coincidence that the rpm limit is 42000 rpm on the larger BK controllers.
