The ESC is a Mamba Max Pro, HPI special version.

The motor is a low-cost version 1517. (a few changes from the standard version to make it much lower cost to produce.)

wait; so this motor is LONGER than the standard flux motor? why is the kv higher?


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.

Cheaper magnets... :) Kv goes up with lower power magnets.

Rated to 4 cells in the Savage -- the 4 cell rating is specific to that application.
