Split Castle SCT combos? Ie sidewinder v2 and 1410 3800kv

Say they cost $110 a combo what would be a good split between motor and esc?

Personally I'd say:

$40 ESC
$5 Motor Shroud / Fan
$85 Motor

is a fair breakdown.

50 esc
60 motor

Based on retail pricing separately that seems like a good divide. However the ESC is typically more desirable and the motors might go quicker with a better price so maybe even half and half.

The motor is worth every penny of the price.... the ESC is just packing material.

Precisely! I wouldn't put much value on the ESC on it's own. The motor itself would be a bargain at $80-90 on it's own considering what it can do.

I got the combo for 93 shipped. Just sell the esc for 50 bucks and enjoy the cheap motor! Or use the esc in something like a crawler or 2wd 10th whatever.
