[mihael]

hi there

i am planing to buy the sct mmpro combo for my 1:8er electric buggy

i driving now 2 years the mmpro esc in my 1:8 electric cars with no issue

the new SCT motor, 1415 2400 has a 3,17mm shaft. i dont know if this tiny shaft will break in the 1:8.

i was planing to buy a NEU 1415 1y engine. but this new castle creations combo has all in one. the good esc and a NEU 1415, but hte version with 3,17mm shaft. there is no problem to buy a pinion Modul 1 for 3,17mm. but i dont know if the shaft will break in a 1:8 vehicel

So long as you use mechanical brakes and don't get any stones in the pinion/spur interface, you might be OK. But I think you are lilely to snap the 1/8" shaft clean off if you use it with electric motor brakes on a 1/8th buggy.

The good news is that Castle is supposed to be working on 5MM shaft rotors for the SCT motors, so when you snap your 1/8" shaft, you will be able to buy a 5MM shaft.

I snapped a few hacker 1/8 shafts in 8th scale buggies back in the day. 5mm shaft is mandatory unless you have a slipper setup. Even then, it is just good sense.

I ran the SCT Pro Kit today in my RC8 to SC10 4WD conversion
Man, this motor is insane !
20 min runtime with about 4800mA

Motor Temp was about 45 degrees no cooling
MMP was about the same.

Gearing was 50/15

But i will stay on my Tenshock based 3S Setup i don't need that much power.
The only thing i don't like on the 1415, is the massiv Rast of the roter.
It is not as much as on the 2650KV CC Motor, but about 80% as on the Tenshock.

I hope to get my "real" SC10 4x4 soon and test the SCT Pro on 3S there ...
