can i use the 4268 motor with 2150kv max voltages is 21V and max amps is 116A on my senton 3s with stock blx100 esc and 20T gearing
can i run it on 2s lipo and 3s lipo
 
A 4268 is an 1/8 scale motor and the 3S Arrma rigs are designed to work with 10th scale motors which are typically more like 3650 can size. You need a 1/10 scale motor. Id look at something like the 3800Kv 1410 motor. That will do 2S or 3S but you'll need different gearing for 3S vs 2S. Get a cheap infrared temp gun to make sure you're not overgearing you rig.

That motor is too big physically for the motor mount in that rig. Even if you could find an aftermarket motor mount that would hold it and fit a 3S senton, youd most likely destroy the internal gearing in teh driveline.

my 4268 motor fit on my senton perfectly and my car was already upgrade to metal diff gear and in the future i will upgrade my spur and motor gear to mod1 gear also upgrade to the metal CVD

Hmmmmm, I didnt realize that the Arrma 3S kits had 30mm mounting holes for 1/8 scale motors. Well seems like youve answered your own question then. Good luck.

Actually, from what I'm reading online it doesn't have 30mm mounting holes, it has the standard 25mm holes that 3660 motors have so I'm not sure how you're fitting that motor in the rig unless youve already upgraded your motor mount?
