Are the motors that come in the package sensored?

Not at first -- our sensored motor isn't ready for production yet. -- But the Mamba Max Pro will support sensored motors.

Patrick will new motors be two or four pole? Don't be so mysterious, give us (your biggest fans), some more info I am sure you are preparing something special

I think Patrick goes far above and beyond the call.

Thanx for doing what you do!

He understans we need six-pole 60mm motors in our 1/10 onroad cars

Well, I will give you a preview:

We are releasing our own line of ROAR legal (stock type -- 10.5/13.5/17.5/21.5) motors (which MUST be two-pole, sensored, salient wound, NOVAK clones by ROAR rules...)

We are also releasing a Neu/Castle 36mm 4 pole sensorless motor which will be ROAR legal for modified. This is a Steve Neu design, similar to our MMM motors, but at Kvs more suited for 1/10th scale, and in a ROAR legal can size.


Availability -- probably Oct/Nov time frame.

Cool...anything for us 4-6s 1/10 bashers? (non ROAR)

Yeah, a 1509 or 1412 size motor would be peachy! Basically a good low-cost alternative to the late Medusa 60mm motors...

[Maciolus]

That sounds promising :) Thanks!

1509 or 1309 (36mm diameter) would be easy...

What KVs would you like to see?

[Arct1k]

2200, 3300-3500, 4800.... thx

[BrianG]

I was thinking 1509 (54mm long) because the larger diameter would make up for the shorter length. The 1412 would be 36mm in diameter, so would benefit from the longer 60mm length. These could be used in heavier and/or larger vehicles like the Slash, CRT.5, etc, or for the normal lighter 2WD vehicles geared higher for faster speeds. Basically vehicles where the current CMs motors are just a hair too small to run without stressing.

As far as kv's go; good matches for various lipo voltages to get between 30k-40k rpm:
- 2s: 4000-5400
- 3s: 2700-3600
- 4s: 2000-2700
- 5s: 1600-2200
- 6s: 1300-1800

[ravin]

I'll take a 2000-2200.
