I found a YouTube movie with a outboardrunner'ed Revo and that got me hawt :).

Nice to see someone doing something outside the box.

I was thinking... the Tekno Revo 3.3 brushless kit states that a motor with the following specs is required:

5 mm shaft and 42mm or less in diameter. They also mention that a target rpm of 30.000 is required.

If I use the Turnigy Typhoon like mentioned above (my previous post) I should use +- 7,3s in order to get those kind of rpms.

Will I be ok with 5s if I gear it right? The sheer amount of torque can make up for the loss of rpms I presume.

To control this motor will I be able to use the Hobbywing XERUN 150A esc?

1 Specification


1.1 Output: Continuous current 150A, burst current 950A.
1.2 Input: 6-18 cells NiMH/NiCd or 2-6 cells LiPo.
1.3 BEC Output: 5.75V/3A (Switch mode built-in BEC).
1.4 Resistance: 0.0002 Ohm.
1.5 Motor Supported: Sensorless and sensored brushless motors
1.6 Suitable Brushless Motor:
When working with 4 cells Lipo: >= 4.5T (KV<=3000)
When working with 6 cells Lipo: >= 6.0T (KV<=2400)
The above T number is the value of a 4274 sized motor (Diameter=42mm, Length=74mm)

1.1 Compatible with all sensorless brushless motors and most of sensored brushless motors such as Novak, LRP and Feigao, etc.


Thanks for taking the time to help me out so far. I'm still a newbie when it comes to making your own brushless combo's. I'm sorry if this is not the place to discuss this motor and esc since RC Monster doesn't sell these items.
