hi guys,

what would be a good speed control for this motor? and what voltage would it run best on? what vehicles would it be good for? has a kv rating of 2903.

I know there was a thread to do with this motor but i did a search and cant find it.

Thanks for any help :)

a 7020 would be a good controller for it.

You could use 4s Lipo or 12 NiMh cells with a motor like that. It might be good for a lightweight E-Maxx.

Dont you think that little motor would run a bit hot? Or maybe it would be similar to a normal 540 "L" motor.

It is about the size inside of a hv maxx so i would go with about he hv maxx suggestions. That would be me though. 12 cells and 14 72 gearing.

yup. like coolhand said, its about the size of an hv (i have 3 of these little motors). only disadvantage is the fact that you need to make a motor mount...

not sure about the L C cans but the little 380xl is about and 1/4 of inch shorter than my 540xl.

MetalMan · 04.10.2006, 08:38 AM

The 380C L motors are longer than the 540 L motors by 5mm.

thats kinda unusual...

coolhandcountry · 09:06 AM

I was thinking the same thing squee.

Edit:
I found the L at 57 mm long and the xl at 67mm long. both are a touch shorter than the 540 motors.

ok guys that just how much clearence ive got now one more question. whats the overall dia. on the c can? it says that the reg. 380 is about 28 but the c can has the heat sink which would it have a bigger dia.

How would the motor compare to a hv-maxx?

coolhandcountry · 04.12.2006, 05:26 AM

If you give me a little bit basketti. I have a couple of these coming. I will test them to see what is up with them.

squeeforever · 04.12.2006, 02:26 PM
