Sensored for 8th scale?

Motor is motor and it doesn't need to be Hacker brand or like to agree with theory of operation and physics, if you wish.

Dollar wise everything is possible and e-bay is not a bad place. Soon you can get sensored motors from Feigao as well. So $250 HV-Maxx plus $60-90 Feigao (S/L/XL) Motor...

P.S. Personally, I think HV-system was designed by two different teams. While Team responsible for ESC did amazing job, motor group screw them up big, forcing them even create last minute fixes in program to make somehow system operational at all. Too bad nobody will tell you the real story... :)

Stating the obvious, "guessing is not an accurate tool" of course it is not that is why it is called a guess. :007: Also, where did I base my statement off the motor not reaching a specific RPM in a Emaxx??:032: If you read my post you would see that I was not questioning the kv based off my guess, but instead off of the word of one of the R&D people that work at Novak. You can see I live in So Cal, so not too far fetched to believe that @ So Cal raceway(my home track) I might know a few people that work @ Novak seeing this is their home race track also. You believe whatever you want, but I will choose to believe a Novak R&D person over you.

Magnetic field is stronger in So Cal...

In general Kv number represents motors RPM @ given voltage with "0" timing.
Timing can change Kv number significantly and while most BL controllers allow you to change timing or adjust it automatically for you, Novak's ESC has this value fixed (possibly in 2 values). So as system it can perform poor, but on paper with correct timing and without load Kv=4400 can be guessed. Otherwise it is false advertisement and all Novak HV-Maxx systems can be re-called :)
