when i first got into this everyone was buying the really high kv motors and puting and running them to the rpm limit causing hot setups. now its the monster max and a low kv motor that runs cool and efficient. im really enjoying this new stuff as it comes out.

I tried a 1280 kv motor on 6s.
It kind of surprised me.
I figured even on stock gearing it should run faster.
Alot more pep to. :D
On an emaxx machine :)

Thanks, unfortunately that truck was stolen a few weeks back :(

Are all the new truck-specific motors shipping with 5mm shafts? I'm in the market for a replacement truck but would like to run the MMM with a 1717 again.


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

Fooking Scum! That blows Spy!

Well if a 1717 with a custom shaft shows up anywhere in your tri-state area chances are good it was yours.

I'm pretty sure the new ones will be 5mm.

Any updates on sending in the motor to be swapped out for a 5mm rotor? It's been about 6 weeks since it was posted

Any KV rating so far for the coming 2025 motor? around 700 could be perfect for 12S apps?

The 2225 is 900KV. Hopefully they drop the KV before releasing them, that's too high!
