I have been wanting something like this in a 1/10 scale castle motor (2000-2700kv), on 2s lipo. My belief is, the motor kv is an indication of powerband, While they all make the same power, Theoretically, They make it at different places on the RPM spectrum. For instance, the HV 4.5 (5000kv) and the 10.5 (Roughly 2000kv), While both make the same power under load, The torque band will be lower in the lower kv motor. Plus with the lower kv motor, you have the headroom to raise the voltage and gain from the efficiency of using less amps over letting the voltage do the work

Almost forgot, My plan for one of these is in a CRT.5 on 5s geared for mid to upper 30's

I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise Last edited by crazyjr; 05.27.2010 at 08:50 PM.
