Best castle brushless motor

[tmaxx 3.3 boss]

Want to upgrade another car. Have the venilon and heats up too fast. Was looking at the mamba max, it's a rustler, running 2s 5000 lipo. I bash a lot and don't want to stop cause of a heat prob. Is there a better motor? I don't want to spend over $200 on the combo. Just tell me what you run. I Also want the motor to last a while. I don't compete only bash, mostly road but set up for dirt. Pics are nice too

If you're getting an Mamba Max Pro, get a non-Castle motor. Look at something like a Tekin 6.5, 8.5, in that area. Those are sensored motors and run about $85.

Also watch your gearing. If you over-gear, it will overheat fast.

Ok I thought they were a good company, what receiver do you use and is there a website for them

Ok witch is better 6.5 or 8.5. Which Is th bigger one

Look on amainhobbies.com

I use spektrum recievers

and 6.5 will have more power, but it may be too much for a rustler.

6.5 it is. I like too much power, or is it bad for the truck

a sidewinder with a castle 1410 (3800kv) on 76/28 gearing works good for Rusties On 3S you will want to drop down to 76/26.
