what motor ?

well after frying 2 feigao 8xl's in my 8t what would be the best motor to get ? i was thinking the mamba 2200kv but not shure , any input would be great , thx joe

Any, more than 2-pole motor, size (lenght) ~70mm or bigger.
Medusa or Castle NEU would be great choises in price-quality relation.

What voltage are you running? The Castle Neu is a good choice for 4s but for anything higher I would go with the Medusa line as you can get a lower kv. 70mm will be more than adequate for a truggy. I just ordered a 36-70-1600 to run in my E-Revo on 5s as it's the closest I can get to my 1515 2.5D without dropping another $260!

yea i run 4s , but later down the road every blue moon i would like to try 6s

my fav setup is 10s with a Neu 1515/2y, and a Castle HV100 ESC lots of power and runs very cool

I run the CC 2200 on 4s, runs cold and powerful :)

what about a Neu 1515/1y/f ?

[brushlessboy16]

the castle 2200 IS a 1515 1y. same style and quality internals.

it kicks ass with 5s lipo, runs a little warm might be too much for racing, you can run with 6s but except for speed runs it is too much speed

1y on 4s seems to be a hot ticket for racing tho.

izzit that a plane/boat esc? How does d brakes work? Mine is only on or off. I m using hobbywing HV100 esc. I love the cool temp but can't adjust the brakes

[brushlessboy16]

its a plane esc.. hes running mech brakes most likely.

[superek4]

So mech brakes better or slipper diff? I m caught in between both, it's quite costly to change to slipper diff

actually running no brakes at all, I have learned how to drive pretty well with out them , I am not a racer I do all my running in large areas such as athetic fields and areas of the desert I have found. I noticed I hardly ever used the brakes with my MMM so I thought why not just use an ESC that doesnt have brakes and will stay a lot cooler and that is what I have done. After a 20 mins of hard running the motor and ESC are barely warm the batteries are the warmest component....I cant believe how much cooler it runs versus a 5 or 6s system
