The same?It is a 4068 can 5mm shaft and 2350 KV

nope, the castle 2350 is longer than the 1515. the "1515 numbers" have to do with rotor size i think.

The first 15 represents the diameter of the rotor and the second the length.

That coincides with my size chart. They are all same (15) can diameter except the big 1.58 kv (1717)

The second number looks like this:

12 68 mm can
15 75 mm can
18 84 mm can
20 88 mm can

I'm not sure about these , but that may put the motor at 41.5 mm x maybe 84 mm length?

patrick

will you guys be selling this new motor too?

it sounds like a great motor for us top speed guys

If you want some more info, pick up the Nov issue of RC Driver, they have reviewed the 2350 in it. I just got it in my mailbox today and after reading it I can confirm:

1. The 2350kv rated motor will indeed go a little faster then the HP's 2200kv in 4s in stock truck form, around 47mph vs 42mph
2. The Q-base ESC is compatible with the Castle link and field link programming card
3. The chassis all around is exactly the same as the HP

I also got my recent Xtreme RC mag and they also had a good review on it as well. Top speed for them was around 43mph

As close as I can measure it is 71 mm total length. Maybe that is considered equal to the 2650 can 40x68 mm.

Patrick has already said that it has a slightly higher KV due to weaker magnets...

FYI, parts are now available seperately

What happened to the HPI website?

I saw that as well, musta been server maintenance, it was pretty late in the night. I do wish the USA website would get its act together, the HPI European site is so much better all around

Patric, I´m running a 1515 2200kv on a mamba max on 4s on a revo platform, with a fan, geared for about 45mph. It runs really cool even when I´m pushing it really hard, it´s well suited for the application.

My question is, I am buying a flux, probably a 2350, will the qbase/mmp be able to handle 5s? since it´s rated for 6s? Or is there something different with the qbase esc that makes unable to handle 6s?

I´m wondering since the mamba max is rated for 3s maximum in 1/10 stadium trucks, buggies and similar and handles 4s in a big MT so well. So I just thought that since the mmp can handle 6s, then 5s would be just fine like running 4s on a mamba max, which works flawlessly.

The esc can handle 6s yeah, but not in the flux- its too heavy and running 6s will cause too much current draw with that motor basically, thats why its limited to 4s in the specs. It may well work though given the old MM setups many people used to run, but it would be a warrenty void if nothing else, and HPI would be the ones to handle any claims- they may not have the same cheap non-warrenty replacement scheme in place..

Yeah, hm but I might just try 5s..If it smokes I have an excuse to buy a MMM:lol:

And, more voltage, less current draw, less strain on the system?

The Regular mamba max can handle 5s untill the ripple current ( if it´s called that? ) / break spikes get´s to high and it smokes... So I figured that since the Mmp is rated 6s it probably could handle 5s in the Savy :whip:
