Fried Lehner 1940? Help!!!

[Sower]

Great points, and yes I did ask. He actually has it in the Truggy section under CRT V2.0. He is now running a Neu 1515 with a Quark. He was originally running the 2240 on 8s in his CRT in a bashing/high speed open area so it was just for pure fun. He says his MGM esc was getting too hot and he wanted to try the Neu motors so he just did it.

In regards to the warranty, I think that might be a waste of time from what I've seen from others. The scenario I've heard is that you send the motor to Germany, wait for 6 months and then have to pay a couple hundred dollars for the repair.

I like your suggestion on checking the specs to make sure, but I'm just not finding a straight forward answer on it. I must admit thought, the technical part isn't my strong point. I'm more addicted to the driving fun! :027: So can anyone enlighten me? From my limited knowledge, the 4s will run about 22000 rpm (the 2240 is 1480 kv), and if I went to a 5s it would be 27000 rpm. My 1940 was a 1500 kv and I really liked the performance of it on 4s.

Brian and I have been talking and we have come to the conclusion that possibly the best motor for the crt.5 is an L sized motor. I an running a 10L in mine now geared for 40mph on 3s and temps are great. Also this little truck is about 4.5lbs rtr with 10L and 3s 4000 lipo.
