brushless motor

So I was lookin at picking up a Castle 1515 2200kv motor but I'm seeing some that are pictured having a smooth can instead of the ribbed can that I'm used to. Is there any difference in these?

So this is probably a very noob question. But every time I see anyone with Tamiya buggies, they are always brushed. Why is this? Are Tamiya buggies unsuited for the power of a powerful brushless system? Also, I don't do organised racing, because another thought I had could be that they are...

A late Christmas present to myself, love this as was pretty cheap at £150.00. Just need to supply your own batteries. Well built 1/10th RC 4WD Truggy and can run on 3S too.

Hi, I’ve got a 1/18 scale maverick ion I’m converting to brushless and have brought a surpass 6200kv motor with a 35A esc on the description I’m being told it’s max current is 75A will the esc be able handle that, I should assume so as they come as a kit... also if I’ve got a surpass 6200kv...

My plane weight is about 230g(no electronics) , 330g with electonics. Wingspan is 1080mm length is 830mm. Ill use motor to pusher, 7.4v battery, and 7035 prop. Please recommend my motor. Thank you~

Hi, I am building FT sea otter now. I think I can't get a recommend motor, so I want to be recommended by you guys. it will be about 550~650 grams. 1000mm wingspan, 800mm length. What motor will be good for this? Will the 2122 1400kv motor can fit in this plane? I hope for your recommendation...

I wanted to.know what battery would you suggest on a team corally dementor 2s-6s capable esc is 180amps now it's not just choosing the highest 6s battery correct? If I were to try saying a 6s 5000mah 90c rated battery my esc would cut out right due to over amperage. I'm new to this rc world but...

Anyone know a reliable 1/18 motor that will get well over 15mph?

Hi. I'm very new to hobby grade RCs and I have no idea what I am doing. I am thinking of building my own car from scratch. I'm thinking around 1/10 scale because my friend is buying one and I want mine to be somewhat similar to his. I have selected 2 of the cheapest motors I can find, one...

Hey, y'all! I looking into upgrading my Venileon 3500brushless, is there any motor that y'all would suggest? I would want it to be a 540 or 550 base, and I would also like to not break the bank! I heard that goolrc's motors are actually reliable even though the rest of their stuff is trash. a...

Hey y'all! I took the slash out for a drive two days ago and it overheated after about 10 minutes, the temperature was in the 60s (Fahrenheit). I thought this was weird, but set it too cool down (it has an ESC fan btw), and after 30 minutes it still hadn't cooled down. I unplugged the batt and...

Hello noob here I’m building a Tamiya to-02 rr chassis or I will be once I figure this out. I’ve decided I want a sensored brushless motor around 10 to 14 t I think.... what esc and motor combo would you guys recommend I’m getting confused looking any help would be appreciated

After watching a few people messing around with these wltoys 12428 on YouTube and modding them I decided to screw around and see what the stock esc and gears could handle. Wellll.....turns out going from a 1500mAh 2 cell LiIo to a 4000mAh 40C lipo was a bit more than I planned haha the car rode...

I've inherited a motor, it's a 3674 2250kv with a 5mm shaft, I want to get rid of it as I have no use for it. What kind of car uses this strange shape of motor? Some 1/8 buggies? I thought SCTs like the slash, but with a shaft like that it can't take smaller teeth pinions, only 32dp and larger...

Hello everyone! I have a (maybe) simple question: a few months ago I bought a Team Associated 1/10 2WD RC10T4.3 stadium truck and still enjoying it a lot! Only modification I had to do was to change the pinion from 18T to 23T to get a speed bump from 23mph to 28 mph with 2S. (I have some...
