Very cool info video exactly what I was wondering, planning to get kraton exb 1/5 scale and was looking at Max5 800kv or 1100kv combo , so looks like I want the max5 1100kv for the 1/5 scale exb with 22pinion 39spur. Mainly for bashing

wow! your presentation is amazing really makes sense. i have a 8s kraton and was thinking about getting a big 800kv castle system for it. but now i’m thinking a 1100kv with proper gearing will be more then enough. new sub here🤟🤟🤟 big thx for the awesome video🔥🔥🔥

I have the traxxas 6s vxl system in my rustler 4x4 with the stock 3s motor.I run it in 3s for normal bashing but when I’m doing speed runs it works perfectly fine you just gotta make sure it doesn’t get to hit so I put dual fans on it that really keep the temp down

Cool review of big RC motors, I'm considering running the Castle MMX 8s with 1717 1,650KV Motor in my XO-1 roller project and my future Infraction as well as maybe a Sledge and i might get 1,260KV for an X-Maxx someday.

I have an Arrma Fireteam which I plan on keeping stock for some time but what would you recommend as a good esc/motor combo for that vehicle? I do more off road speed running and small jumps than big jump bashing or on road speed runs. I would also prefer to keep it as a 6s vehicle as that's what I'm vested in as far as batteries go. I wouldn't mind getting an 8s capable esc but it would most likely continue to be run at 6s. Thanks for any help and great video. Much more informative than most everything else I've seen.

Im just getting into this great hobby im getting my rc car 1/10 scale sometime this month and looking for a motor upgrade from a 550 still learning

Gotta give my fav to the 1100kv hobbywing. Gave a 3800kv castle motor a go in an arrma (yes, i set it up properly) and it burnt out on a 16 tooth pinion and a 50-ish spur within a month of ownership. Tried an 1100kv hobbywing axe motor and it’s worked with no issues for 2 and a half years now. Castle is more for performance, it takes skill to work them properly. Meanwhile hobbywing is mainly reliability, but in my opinion, their motors are just plain better.

what arrma did you install the 3800kv motor in? if it was on a 3s you would have a 50 or a 57 spur, i have a 3800kv motor on a typhon and has worked great with 15/57 gearing

Thanks for the information. Very clearly said

Great vid 👍im running the 1250 spectrum in my xmaxx with the standard esc at the moment, I want to upgrade the esc and was just wanting to know what would you recommend max 5 or max 6.

Nice video! 👍👍 i got a max6 & a 2000kv//4274 Motor and want to swap it with the 1650kv//4985sl. I would like to mount a larger pinion and achieve about the same speed as with the 2000kv motor, but with better temperature values and a better weight balance, since the 2x 3s batteries are positioned on the front left and the motor on the rear right. The motor is almost as heavy as the batteries and maybe I can benefit from this.

Perfectly explained. Thank You.

Great video, great information. What motor would you recommend in a DBXL-E 2.0 with a Max 5?

Im fine with my 4x4 Stampede with a 2650kv motor and 11tooth pinion. Its around 35mph, I was hitting close to 60mph with the stock VXL system, but that thing ran hott! Even with a 9tooth pinion it was some where around 45mph and got toasty by the end of the pack. Good for 2s I guess, but I got so many 3s packs. With the 2650kv 3670 motor, it runs quite cool, and the wheelies thing does now is effortlessly, and temps are way better.

Sounds like a good setup to kill some time.. It’ll never give the full on rush that a 1:5 or even a 1:8 scale overpowered RC can do though. Being “fine” with a Traxxas 2S-3S RTR basically means you started out at the bottom of the barrel (same place I did, Traxxas marketing is fantastic and reels in the beginners) and you are sticking to the starter truck lineup and never venturing out. I’m currently going down my list of 12 RCs (just got into the hobby in June of this year so I’m still building up the fleet) and removing the installed ESC, motor, and pinion/spur gears, whether they are RTR or installed onto roller, then stepping up the voltage to the next level. So my 3S rig will run 4S, 6S rigs will run 8S, 8S rigs will be upgraded to a Castle MMX8S or XLX2, 2S brushed get 3S brushless. Then all of them are getting a heat sink for the specific vehicle along with a motor fan and a Spektrum receiver (SR6100AT, SR6110AT, SR6200A, SR315, SR215) to link to my Spektrum DX5C transmitter, I’m never “fine” unless it’s fast enough to wreak havoc on my nerves.

Awesome breakdown of these motors! 😎👍 Can I ask you in your opinion, when does negative gearing (pinion larger than spur) become necessary or beneficial? I have been looking for all over the place for info and I can't really find anything. I have experimented a bit with this & found that, like you mentioned, it's a trade off for high speed & less torque. I have ran 34T pinion w/ 29T spur setup on my Limitless & as well as a 45T pinion w/a 29T spur. As I kind of expected, I got higher speeds with the 34T/29T which is the "lesser" negative ratio due to the drop in torque. Any info you can shed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 😎 👍

Thanks for the great info. I got a max6 esc and 1100kv motor for my Redcat Rampage XBE 1/5. What pinion and spur should I use?

Woaa buddy, merry Christmas! Love this video it has helped me to make 2 major purchases for my 8s vehicles. Well I'm watching it over again. I just got my first hobbywing max 5 1100kv set up and not sure if I should bother switching out my 1100kv castle xlx2 in my k8s just to try or if its even worth it. My only negative with castle xlx2 is it has given me nothing but electrical problems. Like now my sensored wire only works if I reverse the plug going into the esc with the white wire on the left rather than the right side. I would appreciate any help with the sensored wire that goes to the motor and esc. Castle has already replaced one xlx2 with the QS8 connectors I just have a bad taste in my mouth with castle electronics 😔 I bought the max 5 combo for a Christmas sale just not sure what to put it in. Maybe I'll get a xmaxx roller I have never had one before. Thank you so much for your inspiration and merry Christmas.

that was helpful. thanks!

2028 1100kv motor + XLX2 ESC, what’s the best gearing for speed in my Xmaxx?

Great video.👍👍👍

So it’s not practical to get a higher kv motor if it’s going to cause you to gear down bcs of vehicle weight? Would that be the same as gearing up on your existing motor? I have the Team associated RC8.2e and it’s all stock. Let’s sayyyy I wanted a little more speed like 10mph more and NOT loose torque, what do I do? Add a one more cell? Bcs gearing up will kill my aggressive acceleration that I love most about it. If I went up 2 teeth and one cell, yes I’ll go faster but will the extra cell gain back my torque that I lost going up two teeth?

Hey im getting a kraton 8s in a week or so and i am planning on upgrading the electronics and im struggling between the 2028 1100kv or do i get the 1717 1650kv? Id like to get the 8s kraton to drive like the 6s kraton so top speed 70mph with a mix of on road and off road driving? Any advice between the two?

I’m thinking about buying a new set up for my exb I want more torque what should I buy

So with the krayton 8s what's the best gearing set up to run to get more top end speed on stock motor and esc

Will VERY likely go with a Castle 2028 1100kv when I buy an Outcast or Kraton 8S EXB; a friend is running an RTR Outcast 8s with a 800kv 2028 and 39/39 gearing; thing gets barely warm. One thing about the Spektrum stuff: most people dont know, but the motors and ESCs is just relabeled Hobbywing stuff. So no reason to pay extra, when you can get the same thing for far less.

Are the connectors that connects from the motor to the ESC the same mm in the 1100kv motors?

Hi everyone. I've recently set up my e-revo with a sensored castle 2200kv. Oversized fan over the esc, I ran 4 batteries so far, and the motor overheat and stop functioning. This morning did stoped functioning forward but was functioning on reverse. I let it cool down for a few minute and was back on. But then I went home without push it any further. Any idea anyone? Suggestios? Thank you

I hope some more mainstream 12s ESCs come out soon... I'd love to build a 12S outcast that's actually practical.

I have the 800 kv because that's what I was sold...I know nothing about all this...soo I need to run the 800 for now. What gears should I be running the ratio?

I'm looking to upgrade my motor on my xrt. I have a hobbywing max 6 what motor would you recommend? Also whats the difference between sensored and sensorless motors? Which one is better

Awesome informational video. 1 question. for an xmaxx running 8s do you recommend the 800 or 1100kv for general bashing? Currently running castle mmx8s & 800kv geared 30/33 wfo mod 1.5s. Love the speed and crazy torque but would it be more effective to run the 1100kv & xlx2? Thanks for the awesome videos.

Did you find an answer? I’m in the same boat haha.

Epic comparison & show n tell Brandon . 👌 You nailed it with the Big CC 2028 & HW 800KV.. That CC 2028 'needs' 12s IMO to really shine & get full RPM out of the Can. The 1100KV Cans are 'much better' for 1/6th & 1/5th scale cars on 8s with relatively tall gearing they are great. My favourite motor out of that line up is my CC 1717. its an absolute Animal on 8s, I luv it for on road speed runs or even overpowered 1/8th bashing 💪 👊

Would the kraton 8s motor be cool in my felony unit my new motor comes..and would it be slow

Id like to see a 4 motor direct drive car with the 1100 kv motors. 1/5-1/6th scale. I would love to see a basher but the motors would probably be to heavy to bash a truck with a 2lb motor on each wheel. But a speed car would be able to handle the weight on the motor. The esc would probably run 4-5 thousand dollars alone and the battery would weigh more than the car. But it would be fun to see that.

Just dropped a 800 kv in my 8S Kraton. Now i may start running a 10S buttery. But will the stock esc handle it ?

what do u think of a 1717 1650kv in a slash2wd for a100mph+ build

Hey Bud Which would be better for my Typhon 6s V5 speed run say 140mph ??? 1100kvs ??? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Good video informative 👍

I'm new at this, and my brain tells me the higher the kv the higher the rpm, now I'm not so sure. I ordered a 4070 or 72, 2000kv and a 150 amp esc. My intention is to put it in a 12th scale vehicle, 72 spur gear and a 39 pinion. Have I wasted my money???. I love what you're doing and I got the bug, haha

Im looking for parts for my brand new 8s outcast experience thanks so much

I have a fg sprotline AWD. Had bevor a max5 1100kv 8s setup and now I think about max4 800kvcastle on 10s What do you recommend? And how much difference could it be?

I am thinking of putting a castle 1100kv motor in my 1/10 scale rc

Can you answer this question?…….. nowhere have I found ANY info on whether the spectrum 150 esc can run the castle 1650kv better than the monster x esc bcs the spectrum is rated at a higher amperage.. what can you tell us about this?

Just ordered Spektrum 1100kv motor and 160amp esc. The 150 flamed in fire in my felony. Question for anyone who can answer. Should I put the new motor in my felony or in my Kraton 8s? Which motor would be best suited for the felony? 1100kv or the 1250kv motor?

Can you run a 1250 kv spectrum with the stock esc on aarma felony?

I’ve got a max 6 and a 1100 kv motor for my arrma Mojave is that ok as I will probably only be running it on 6s
