i think your right they are 4mm lame:002: what about a lenher xl 3600 would one work in a rusty? a new motor is a must now! :035: dont know what happend but i know its bad
The XL3100 would be great in a rusty. I ran a XL4200 for a while and it was really good. But I went to 3s Lipo and needed to get a lower KV motor.
You could even just run the Basic 3100 (not XL) and it would be really good.
I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
nvm its 97 amps:031: any body know how powerfull a Kontronik Twist 42 is? jamie from starluck said he would sell me one for like 140 should i do it:002:
4200kv seems like it would be too much for 11.1. You will be reving it really high and it will probbly run hot. I got rid of my XL4200 cuz it ran to hot on 3s. I would recomend going for something more in the 3000-3500kv range. You can gear ir up and get just as much speed, it just runss cooler. Especially if you go w/ the basic XL. It will have plenty of torque to gear it up.
I really think the Basic 3100 would be ideal for a rusty on 3s.

The XL3600 should work well I would think. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong though.
I think the XL3600 would be fine as well. I wouldn't go any higher kv than that though or it will run to hot. As far as the 97 amp rating. You won't draw anywhere near that on 3s with a light rusty. If you had it geared up on 4s in an emaxx or something then you might.
When I had my XL 4200 in my (relatively heavy) all aluminum rusty, it would peak at 68-70 amps on 3s and that is a more power hungry motor than the xl3600. Your quark is an 80A constant rating. I ran my XL4200 on a Warrior 7020 (70 amp rating) w/ no issues. You will be fine.
