Question about motors? - 12.27.2008, 06:15 PM

Hey guys, im not new to electrics however Im new to my 8T. I sold my 8ight B which was brushless, it had a Feigao 8XL, 4S lipos and a MMM on it.

Now im running the 8T, and NOT using 4S packs anymore, I ditched them all and am runnning 5S packs so I have packs for the LST and the 8T.

Now the 8T IS STUPID on the 8XL being 2084KV its just too fast, and I have the losi kit on it so I have 15T pinion and a 45T Spur. The stock 48T Spur will NOT fit.

Anyways, I am going to Medusa Reseach on monday as they are 20 mins from my house. Im curious what motor to buy.

I was thinking the 36-60 1600KV.

Now if I CAN get a 70 or 80MM can from them im person, would I be better off getting the 70 or 80?

Will the 80 Draw too much current?

I just want to bash and race the 8T, so nothing over 42mph ish is needed. Thats why I want to go with the 1600KV plus, if I ever decide to go to 6S lipos I can.

So what are the major differences with the 60-70-80MM cans?

I appreciate all the help that is given!


If it aint broke, break it, then fix it.
