I bought the turnigy desert racing buggy. I changed the original esc for the X-Car 45A Brushless Car ESC (sensored/sensorless). And now I want to make it faster, so should I put this motor? By the way, is this motor waterproof?
You will experience major cogging using this esc with a sensored motor. Altough the guy shows you on the video that it works, it just does not. Get the right pair right away. I just got it today installed it and it is just terrible. Keep sensored with sensored and vice versa
A am also looking at the "EZ-RUN Brushless Motor 9T 4300Kv" or "EZ-RUN Brushless Motor 10T 3900Kv" or "EZ-RUN Brushless Motor 12T 3300Kv" They all seem like good motors and the turns are all about the same range (lower turns higher torque faster off the start???) I don't want to strip my gears with too much torque.
Thanks again
Looking to get this motor for my 1/10 Short-course truck. The Gear Ratio on my truck is 8.038:1 (I am into planes so this is all new). I am also looking to get the HK 60A ESC and I plan to run this on 3s 2200, I also have 2s 1300 is this a good choice? Also my current Brushed 540 motor has a heat sink can I use that heat sink on this motor or do I need to get a fan one with a fan? I am looking for higher speed from this setup. Thanks for your help.
Hi,I'm using this motor with the HK-45A ESC in a 1:10 4wd short course truck and its cogging severely. Pinion is 23T and drive gear is 64T. What can I do to stop this??
Hi and thanks for your suggestions. The sensor wires are not connected as this esc has nowhere to connect them! I am using a 5A 3S Lipo which is new and no matter what setting I change...timinig etc...there is no change......it still cogs badly unless you roll start it!
If you have checked every electrical connection, and everything is fine, try to use a smaller pinion to increase the ratio - this usually helps when the car is heavy or the surface is rough, as a lot of power is needed to start rotation of the motor.
And i have a kyosho ep fazer kobra with stock gearing which is 28teeth to 75teeth, will it be good or i will need to look at another motor? If so... What KV rating would i need? (will credit for advice!)
From the goggle pics, your RC looks like a buggy. For such I would recommend a motor between 3500 to 4800kV. Go towards higher kV for top speed gain and lower kV for more torque/acceleration gain. It's always best to optimize your preferences and go accordingly. Always use 2S Lipo first before jumping to 3S, make sure the car can handle that RPM.
It depends on what kind of car you want to use it with. 2wd would be fine with just 2 cells
but with 4wd you will probably have to buy a 60a
and possibly 3 cells
Motor will never be burned because of too beefy ESC.
The question should be the other way around "What ESC can handle this motor", not "Can motor handle this ESC". 80A ESC is more than enough for this motor. You'll do just fine with 40A esc also, it's only 220W motor.
I have a 35A ESC for my hobbyking 1/10 short course truck. but my motor has broken, so now i've to buy a new motor.
I doubt between this motor, the 13.5t and the same motor as this one, but than 11.5t. I want sometimes some good speed, but also drive very. very slowly, so with one click of throttle. So i think want to sensor it..
Which motor is the best for my car? (it's the same as the slash 4x4)
- The 11.5t ( i thought 3300KV) or - The 13.5t (3150 KV)
I'll run it on 3S.
I hope someone will awnser fast, so, which motor gives the best results and will accept my prefers.
I think you will be happy with the choice of the 11.5 3300 kv. I ran this motor in 4 cars over the course of 2 years. Onroad and Off road.
I have been more than pleased. This is a great zero maintenance motor.
Just watch your temps to find the correct gearing.
My son drive a stock Tamiya Gravel Hound 1/10 (DF02 chassis)
I want to upgrade it with a brushless motor, 35-40A controller and 2s lipo (and actual 7.2V nimh).
Is this motor a good choice for the upgrade of the Tamiya buggy or is it too much power for this chassis?
Better motor is the ezrun 10T with the 60A quik esc and the 4amp turnigy 2s lipo. It's a tight fit, but you must center the esc on the top deck. I'm running what I've just mentioned in my df02 with upgrades:
You need to purchase "bullet connectors" and some Silicone Wire of around 14awg to 16awg to solder it on the brushless motor. As for the HobbyKing 30A esc, it does arrived with soldered silicone wire but it does not have any "bullet connect" to connect with the motor. You got to buy "male" & "female" bullet connectors. Size should be around 3mm to 4mm type. Hope it helps!
F... you HK! I made an order on 21 January at office and couldn't pay in time because of the security protection of the PayPal. Your representative sent my PayPal a payment request for a solution, it didn't work either. Then I paid your payment request through PayPal after I return home. And I'm still waiting for your approvement. It still shows "Awaiting Payment" and half of my order became out of stock because of your slowness. Now you left no choice but wait until they are restocked again in unknown time. Maybe months!
I've been running this with a 3s lipo and ez35a esc in a 4wd buggy on rubber slicks, on carpet idoors. I seems to have a lower torque than ez-run kv3000 and nomatter what timing i use it makes funnys sound when, i hit the throttle hard. It seems like the magnet is to weak. If i go easy on the throttle it works ok, but i need more power. The price is unbelivable. I'm running this motor with a gear ratio 8,6 to 1

Super moteur ! Va trs bien avec un variateur 35A. Par contre, avec un accu 1300mAh 2S, la LiPo gonfle un peu...
Using it with a 60A EZRun ESC, 2S and 3S 30C 5000mAh batteries.
Sensor wires can't be detached.
Shaft is longer than usual, had to sand down 4mm of it.
The shaft's bearing holder stands out from the outer bell's front (the front side of the motor is not even), so for my AE SC10 I had to make the hole on the motor plate a bit (about 1mm) bigger.
The motor is a lot cooler than my EZRun 12T, even with a 3S battery it just won't reach the temps of the comparative EZRun motor.
For some reason, it won't react to full power as expected, I have to 'pump' the gas to reach full speed sometimes. Maybe I'll have to experiment with timings a bit more to get rid of this 'feature'.
Pay attention to fasten the screwz before first use, but do not overtighten them.
For this price, it seems to be a good buy. After further testing, I'll publish my opinions.

fantastic! runs cool and plenty of power to push my t4 aound on 2s 6000. one solid motor, running with a mamba max some cogging but hey its $15 its not going to be perfect. great motor hk!

Good motor for the money ! I'm using it in a slash with 2s lipo. 5*****
