Before the Direct Drive to Diff Revo, was this E maxx.

It's outrunner motor was attached straight to the Tranny.

It ran like:

The e maxx motor was a TowerPro 3520 660kv motor. It performed well.

I love outrunners and how they work, but the truth is............For gearing, there is a sweet spot you want to find.

Too high on the gearing, it will cog on startup and run hot. All the while, exploding diffs and shredding your drivetrain.

Too low on the gearing, and it's like having a low geared diesel. LOL

I like the fact that Castle is perfecting the "Torque Limiting" feature for their ESCS. If this is perfected by the time the HV Mamba controllers hit the market, Bingo! That's gonna be a class act for some outrunner setups.
