Any interest in a Ballistic 550 Motor?

I think the 8th scale ballistic would be cool as long as there is some low KV motors like 1800 ish. Like the tekin motor line up would be a good example. Even if there isnt a 6s from you guys, have the option for guys that have the esc's to do so. Because the ballistic motor design is super sick, especially for racing when you want to try a different motor, just buy a new winding. =D

Wish I had something to test a motor in. Haha

They made some 8.5 and 9.5 turn HV motors for the team guys (I know: I have an 8.5HV). The Build-A-Ballistic program has winds that are not sold as whole motors so there's no reason they couldn't do 8.5 and 9.5 wound stators with the HV Ballistics. Combine those with the 14MM rotor and you might get down as low as 1800.

We could always offer a "Build-A-HV" program....

And a "Build-A-Crawler" program....

How are your 8.5 HVs working? Bob is concerned that the lower Kv B. motors, from using the 14mm rotors, might not work very well.

We can easily offer higher Ballistic 550 wound stators.

If we decide to offer the Ballistic 550, the price would be under 110.00, which is the price of our HV Pro motor, which it would replace.

To be honest, I haven't had time to play with it yet. I definitley would not put the 14MM rotor in it unless it was to be run on 5S or 6S. Actually, I have the 8.5HV earmarked for a 4X4 slash on 3S with the standard 12.3MM rotor. I figure it will give me a lot of gearing flexibility and still run cool. I've been running a 7.5HV on 3s (with a Havoc3S) in a CRT.5. It goes plenty fast enough for the track where I run, the motor barely gets warm (10-15 degrees above ambient) and the speedo stays cooler than the motor. Feel the speedo heatsink after running the car and you can't even tell it has been turned on (that is with the fan on it, of course).
