and the the 80 amp 2250 is going in my monster gt which i am still working on will have pic soon.....these or great motor my on road is doing about 77 mph low heat to the motor after about 5 high speed passes

I have 2 of the 2000kv ones. Been great. Both are used on my truggies.

I have the 2000kv one (2nd gen) and it has been great pushing a 6kg truck on 4S and 6S. Very smooth motor that runs cool and power seems very close to Castle motors. I did change the bearings in it after about 6 months use but I really did it as a precaution. Wasn't all that sure about chinese bearings and their quality.

I don't agree with others. I used two different models of these motors and not pleased with them. They run hotter than the feigao motors and can't even compare with a castle/neu. If you're low on budget go for feigao they run much cooler than hobbywing.

I didn't think anything ran hotter than a Feigao
