Castle moving sale

[lincpimp]

I would go with the 1520 motor myself, but the 1518 will do. The 1512 is one size smaller than your 2200 motor, and would be better suited to a buggy running 5s lipo.

Not sure what the kv is on the 1520 motor, but it must be around 1600kv, which is perfect for 6s lipo.

1520 is 1600kv, I am asking because, the 2200 motor has plenty of torque as it is, and I dont want to buy more lipos right now, so I would have to adjust top speed with gearing (I could maybe get one 3s battery to run in 5s...) So... better to get a 1518 or 1520 and move the 2200kv motor to the buggy, right?

If I may ask, why do you prefer the 1520? Less kv so the motor can run more efficiently? I am just concern about the torque, I have already broken steel cvds with the 2200 motor.

The 1520 is longer, so it will handle the same power as the 1515 at a higher efficiency, even if the voltage is the same. You can run it on 4S lipo, will be great.

Thanks lincpimp and nuz69 for the replies... the 1520 it is!

It should fit the flux without modifications right?

any idea when these orders will be shipping?

You want to use the 1520 in the stock length flux? Don't think it will fit, it's close enough with the Desertboy conversion.

This stuff is approx. the same length, if you can fit it, the 1520 should aswell. (used as a mockup on my XL)

I am chatting from work right now, I'll measure the space available to see if I can fit the 1520... if not, I'll try the 1518.....

Something tells me I'll end up getting the 1520 and XL tvps.... I'm scared.... hehehe, wife is not gonna like this....

But at the price of the 1520 right now, you can buy a XL tvp setup and the motor and still be cheaper than the motor's original price.

Correct, I really didnt want to buy more RC stuff for a couple of months.... but its too much a good deal to let it pass.... probably should just get a 1518 and a 1520......

getting scared again.....

My order is schedualed for delivery on Tuesday.

All you guys whom haven't received shipping confirmation be patient, I can only imagine how bad Castle was bombarded with orders with those sick prices.

I was wanting to get a new motor with the prices they're at...just not sure which one.

currently running a jammin x1 crt with the mmm/2200kv combo on 4s
don't really want to buy bigger batts right now......so which one should I go with?
bashing only, don't do any speed runs just something with good power the 1520?

Thanks

Either the 1518 or 1520 would be a great bashing motor in the Jammin. No worries with either!!

I got excited and already ordered the 1520 before posting that.....was waiting for my account to be activated and just had to buy it haha

Wanted to see if it was a wise choice or if I was going to have to sell it lol
