| Outside my realm of experience...?
I'm building a CXT 1:6 scale with kyosho Mad Force Axles built, not super heavy snow rig. I need something to power this. Something to maybe run3s or 4s. I will have a built axial scx10 tranny. Beefy fracas drives. Hoping something waterproof like blxr and a brushed motor. I have a pro4 motor 3300kv but I think I'm asking for problems with heat and snow. Tires are B&H rc4wd monster tires. What would you recommend? |

For something that large 1/8th scale power would probably be a better fit. The pro4 is strong, but a little small. Maybe a I would look at any sensored 1/8th scale motor in the 2650 range. That would run great on 4s. I have my doubts any brushed motor would survive in that large a vehicle for long.

Thats what I was afraid of but I was looking to keep the SCX10 tranny option bc I had one. Should I look to a summit tranny or something? Then 1/8 scale. |

I have some used 18volt dewalt motors that I probably can't use. I could send you one "flat rate" usps, if you think you can make it work. that should push your build pretty good. |

| Re: Outside my realm of experience...? I might have to to take you up on that. If it can push a heavy Summit then it would bode on this rig. TY brotha for the offer

| Re: Outside my realm of experience...? The HH motor more than handles this rig too. I ran it for 45 minutes hard on the G6 trail and it was barely warm, even geared 10:1. Can't beat the torque and smoothness the Sensored out runner offers, especially for the price, not to mention the 540 size.
