| Alternative to roc412/ pro4HD
Looking into alternatives for a budget build. Looking for 4 pole sensored. I know the puller pro is a bit cheaper but stills more than I'd like to spend. My question is has anybody ran trackstar or hobbywing or any other motor designed for short course trucks or 1/8 buggies/truggies. https://www.amainhobbies.com/hobbywi...100000/p279103 Turnigy TrackStar 1/8th Sensored Brushless Motor 2100KV (US Warehouse) This will be going in a 6-7lb wraith used in a mix of trailing and crawling. And yes I have an all metal transmission and driveshafts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The Turnigy motor is quite good but it is huge compared to a motor normally used in a Wraith. Here it is next to a Pro4HD and regular 17.5 brushless motor. The Hobbywing XERun 3656 motors are quite powerful and well made but I have no idea how they handle low speed situations. Tenshock motors are a good budget option as well, I have used a X211 motor in my SCX10 with good results. SkyRC makes the Toro S-Pro4HD motors that are supposed to be good but they are quite hard to find these days (Wouldn't be surprised if Tekin's lawyers had something to do with that). |

the smc rc motor line is a good option to look at.

That trackstar is huge! Glad I asked. Do you have a 550 motor to compare to? I already had to trim the upper link mount to fit my Traxxas 21t 550 can. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

| Re: Alternative to roc412/ pro4HD The Pro4HD in the middle is a 550 motor, it is about the same size as the Traxxas 21T.

Other than torque, what does 4 pole vs 2 pole motors differ? Any effect on crawlability? Price wise this fits the bill as well. But only 2 pole. http://holmeshobbies.com/motors/brus...ro-bl-540.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This is what I have been using its a 2200 kv motor I have been using it for a while on 2s works well no issues it can hang with the best of them, 4 pole only thing is its 5mm shafts but there's plenty of 5mm 32 and 48 pitch pinion gears Leopard 4 Poles Sensored Brushless Motor LBPS3658 4D New in Box | eBay |
