I would have to guess it to be about a 1500KV setup (there's no solid KV info out there for the big rotors) and would have to be used with a MMP or RS ESC, a Havok won't give proper drag or instant reverse and a Goat will turn into a Havok with that motor. The biggest issue with the Novhack silver cans is the non-replacable sensor harness, they seem to go out in the abusive crawler enviorment pretty quick.

YA the crawler i would put it in would be a losi comp crawler. the ecs that i have to use would be a MMP or a traxxas Velineon vxl-3s. I am currently using the mmp but I found the VXL-3s works a bit better because the esc cuts all power to the motor and steering when the wheels get locked in a crack, Then I have to pick up the crawler and it will start again and with the VXL-3s it did not have that issue.

Not hard at all to wire in a BEC, the MMP is only 3 amp output. We had been powering a 5645 with no issue in a LNC with a MMP, swapped in a 9100t after stripping gears today and picked up the same issue. A CC BEC will solve it and let you run the MMP for instant reverse.

so the original question was never answered. i too have the 17.5 ss novak and was wondering if the 14mm rotor will work in this can. i see on the novak site that the largest rotor avail for this motor is the sintered 13mm. just wondering if anyone else has tried it. i love the speed of the 17.5 on a 14t pinion but the low end leaves a little to be desired.
