Lehner Basic XL 1200 Brushless motor but which controller ? - 06.16.2006, 02:35 PM

Hi, I have a Revo Gorilla-maxx powered by an HV-Maxx, i'm French and running with this truck on the european tour (Monster Contest tour) and finished 4th last time.
But I also have an xb8 and the Team Helotes arena kit conversion and i'd like to brushless it !
So I want a very powerfull motor like the Lehner Basic XL 1200, but with its rpm, i want to know which controller is able to power it as well ?
I think i'll power it with 14 cells not more because it's heavy.

So can ou help me ?
Best regards.

Patrice

with 14 cells and a buggy, go for the wanderer L or XL can..

I use a 9L on mine, on 12 cells.. It is fast.

the basic XL might be a bit too small for such a small gearing.

The Wanderer L or XL get's my vote.

Welcome to the forum bytheway!

If you are going to run the motor on 14 cells I would think that you should have a higher KV motor than the Basic XL1200. More like the Basic XL2400 or at least the XL2000.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Thank you for the fast answer.
So you think that the XL1200 is too big for the truggy ?
7XL for example with a warrior controller like 12020 ?
I've seen that the other motors aren't available !

Best regards.

No, it's too small for a truggy i think.

Your gearing ratio is somewhat limited, so you need a motor that delivers more torque.

The 7XL would be okay with a 9920 on 14 cells. the 8XL would do about the same, with a bit longer runtime.

You can email Mike about the motors. He can ship them directly from germany to France.

With the steel spur, you really need a hardened pinion!
