Hi kneedeeppow,
Unfortunately I managed to melt that KD36 motor after only a few runs and I hadn't been paying attention to run times.
The KD36 was running warm (as they are known to do) but not hot, until the temps just suddenly rocketed up. I am using a DX3s with telemetry, so I was able to shut it off quickly, but I think the KD36 just isn't that resilient to 5S. The EZrun on the other hand is only rated to 4S, but handled 5S just fine, right up to and including the shorted motor!
Now I need to decide what to put in it. I tried an HPI Flux Tork (the HPI badged version of the CastleNeu 2200), but the built in heatsink won't allow it to fit in the RCM mount. I could get an MMM combo... or I was wondering about the Tekin RX8...
Anyone used an RX8 combo with a Mugen conversion?
