gotta love KB motors. i just opened up my used 1600kv 8xl and found a couple cpieces of magnet on the end of the rotor. i hooked it up to my vxl esc (lol) and ran it unloaded on a 9.6v battery. in the 30 seconds i ran it, it heated up to 90F. i'm most likey going to order a 1400kv 12L when i order my esc. i'm stuck with KB motors for now as my motor mount only fits them.

metalman, how did you make that adaptor? i want to be able to run 25mm bolt pattern motors.

They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
