I was reading the manual for the HobbyWing Quicrun 1060 brushed ESC, and, it says for 2S, 12T minimum, and, for 3S, it says 18T minimum, and, yet, HobbyWing doesn't make a 12T or 18T brushed motor that I have found. They make an 11T, a 12T, a 30T and a 40T. For 2S, it isn't even rated to use their own 11T, so what ESC are you supposed to use with it?

You can use the 1080 brushed, but, the G2 version doesn't even show motor limits, and, the standard 1080 says that for 3S, there is a 16T limit, which, again, a motor they don't make.

Use a non hobby wing motor?
Hobbywing 1060s are often rtr type escs and the brand just uses their own motor or a different companies motor. Like modern tamiya kits they switched out their house escs to hobbywing in some kits.

Imo hobbywing seems pretty focused on their brushless motors that they tend not to worry about coming out with new brushed motors. And also most people who run brushed either go with a cheap one on amazon or a name brand like Holmes Hobbies.
