truck lost most of its power mid run

Can’t you use Holmes hobbies motors too, given they sell sensored combos with castle esc’s?

I don't like the whine every holmes motor I've heard makes
Like if there's 10 trucks lined up I can pick out the hh motor usually based off the annoying sound they make
They make great motors don't get me wrong but for me the noise is a deal breaker

The EZRun MAX G3 series motors have a proprietary waterproof sensor/temp cable. There is an adaptor for the G3 motors that allow them to be used with other ESCs though. I think it adds too much wire length to tuck/hide away. I'd go the Castel Creations (CC) route if I had a CC ESC already.

That's the same line of thinking I'm having to be honest

That’s good to know. Never ran a HH motor

It happens. Glad you figured it out. I'd still put that bigger motor in that beast

The only issue would be the sensor wire. He'd need an adapter or at the very least worr it up correctly himself.
