Quark 80b and hacker c40 motors

[JCUEVAS]

Everything was purchased new. How easy is it to destroy a motor? Thought hackers are maybe hard to break. I'd rather the esc be broke than my motors.

[_paralyzed_]

Hackers are excellent motors, I was just trying to troubleshoot,

[JCUEVAS]

I thankyou all for all your help. I sent all my stuff (motors and esc's) back to aero-model. Let me just say, those guys are determined trouble shooters. They put my setups in there own vehicles which are the same as mine. So far they are saying that the motors are pulling to much amperage. I know one of you helpful guys said the same thing. It boggles my cranium to hear that these little things pull that much current. So far i feel that these $200 esc were not right for my application.

A MMM or Rx8 will be a nice match for the motors. My old 8L C40 was pulling 180+A peak at startups, so you can only imagine what the 5L pulls.

[JCUEVAS]

180+ Thats just nutty! so i guess a mm pro wont do the job.

I use to pull that kinda amperage with the first generation Mamba Max. That is why it was recommended to use the Quark 125B with the 5L C40 Hacker, as that esc shared the same fets with the MM.

MM Pro should do the job...

What do you have the 5l in? How do you like it. Better than the castle motors or neu. I have a neu 1515 1.5d and that thing is ghost in my erevo.

What do you guys recomend I put in a flm pede w one inch wheel extensions, extended chassis and maxx 14mm wheels and tires?

a better transmission and axles That's a lot of weight to rotate with a little 1/10th scale car.

The hacker motors are probably alright, I'd go with a Mamba Monster Max speed control or a tekin rx8.

The matching castle creations or tekin motors to those controllers would be the ultimate setup, and run very cool and reliably.

Just ordred a 5700. Think I'll throw that in my rustler. How about an hv pro sytem? Any good for my over sized pede. My pede did constant wheelies with my vxl setup.

[suicideneil]

Skip the hvmaxx systems- those are fine for stock maxxes and such, but old tech compared to modern systems. The VXL motor is fine, good kv, but the vxl esc is a bit naff. Somethign like a 50mm long 4 pole motor of any flavour would be great, in the same ~3000-3500kv range.

For an overweight rusty or pede I would suggest an MMPro esc and a 1509 or 1512 sized motor- Neu for the 1509 or Castle for the 1512; price vs performance is hard to beat.

Hacker motors are 2 pole power houses, they are the design that feigaos copy, only much better built and more efficient, but they will struggle to compare to the torque of a 4 pole motor the same size.

Wow... that is nice

[JCUEVAS]

Ok every one, here is what is happening. The guys at aero model did some extensive testing on my setups that i sent them. They put them in the same vehicles with the same gearing. They have determined that the Quarks are not enough for these motors. Since i had purchased them from them, they were nice enough to instantly refund my money for the esc's. Those guys are no joke over there. Extreamly nice and helpful just like mike at rc-monster. top notch! So I have a mmpro 5700 purchased for my rusty. As for my pede, i ordered a mamba monster speed control along with the 18th chassis. i have the extended one now but i want it bigger! Gonna sell the extended one for now. Also putting my 5l motor in it. Ill hold on to my 6t for another project. Maybe put it in my 4-tec. Thankyou all for your help. Posting some pics for all you guys. Enjoy!
