Slash 4x4 Buggy 1717 6s

[Lizard]

Yeah, I have asked myself the same question about the Tenshocks some time ago. What I find weird is, that the Tenshocks are offered with about the same kv values (around 1800-2200) as other 4-pole motors. If they really get inefficient with higher RPMs (and they need the same electrical RPMs as 4-Poles to stay in their efficient RPM range), that would mean one has to use around 1000-1200kv on 6s with 6-pole motors. But Tenshock doesn't even offer motors in that kv range. Really weird, I mean, if it's true, Tenshock must know this (?) Or maybe they know this but offer the "wrong" kv anyway?

Here is a video with a short comparison between a Tenshock 2200kv and a 1515 2200kv both with same gearing in the same car, the Tenshock is 10 degrees hotter after the short run:
