What I and others here are trying to explain to you that you keep missing is this.. there are 2 losi micro motors listed in this topic The motor he has, which comes in the Micro crawler,trekker,highroller,SCT/rally this is confirmed the same motor for all those micros on losi's very own site. the name just happens to be "high performance" ... and the completely unrelated micro T/B motor that you listed as well, which doesn't come in any losi crawler or the SCT/rally . Just because it says high performance doesnt make it some magic little motor, redbull says it gives you wings but you wont be flying anywhere.. No actually its not, first off I am not wrong, and even if i was wrong if i believe it to be right that just makes me WRONG not a liar, a lie would be if i KNEW i was wrong and said otherwise but that isnt the case. I said I dont care what YOU do with YOUR money. if you or anyone asked a question or advice I would give my 2 cents.. you dont HAVE to listen. but the fact here is you are wrong and the others have pointed it out as well. You say you swapped your crawler or trekker motor with an SCT motor and felt a gain when its the same motor listed on losi's site for both. if you noticed any gain then there may have been another reason. it could be the pinion gear, health of the old motor. who knows thats not even the real issue, the fact is no matter how much you change the subject about who said what or who was wrong about the predator motor the fact is the motor you suggested is the same motor he has.. that is all. it doesnt mean you lied, and it doesnt mean I lied for pointing that out. lets just end the disagreement here. the Original poster and yourself can both do what you want with your $$ there is enough info here for him to make up his mind | |

The only motor combo that might work for your application is a 130 can PN racing motor with neo magnets. (40-60 turn)If you could adapt in a 130 can motor it might be the best of both worlds but you will have to get custom on the chassis and a custom motor plate. If you are totally stuck on using the Losi axles then you might not ever find the right combo. I even tried one of the Losi 10250kv brushless systems on a crawler for fun. It was quick but absolutely no crawling ability...and the axles handled it ok. It wasn't fast enough to be fun and had no torque. One other option is to jump up to 11.1 volt on an ESC and motor that can hanlde it. I tried a 11.1 on a Sidewinder micro esc and a 4100kv 12-30 brushless motor and it was pretty good. I never posted it cause it cogged a little too much for my liking. |

This thread got full of the ghey real quick! I bought the "performance" " high power "SCT/Rally motor and guess what? It has the same numbers stamped/printed as the motor that came in my crawlers, Trekker, 2 Sct's, and McDT. It is the same fawkin motor, same speed and torque too!!! Why is this even an argument? Why would Losi drop coin developing all these different motors when they could drop ONE in all these rigs and sell shitloads to rc crackheads like us? I'm with Spoo on this one........I'm off to crop circle hunt.....

Don't see how when losi's expode views for the trekker but whatever you say. I'm kinda tired of you goofballs. The motor prdator rwinds is made by x-mods for a "modified" motor for the losi micro cars. It's not this one. That brushed motor is about as fast as the 8750. ask predator. That's what he uses and rewinds the arm. | |

It's not a lie if you think its the truth and pass it off as the truth. Why not say, "I'm not sure." This guy might think you are sure. Get upset cause coulda spent $10 on a motor and chaned the spur and pinion around. But thought whats the use I was told its the same motor. That is my stink. | |

Midlife: the reason for this new motor was the origanal one wouldnt do very good in the Rally/ sct. The same reason there coming out with 2 new micro brushless systems. For the new Rally/Sct. | |

Look up Chevy55s big block thread for a picture comparison. the motor he rewinds are much closer to the atomic dual ball bearing motors and are the same size as the losi micro. | |

What the hell is an xmod? Getbent( aka predator! Lol!) re- winds BB2 motors from Atomic. (Disclaimer: he did anyway, so I could be wrong now...not lying!) My SCT hauls ass with it's stock motor, no problems with it. OP......really sorry bout the hijack! The nutswinging sure is entertaining though! |

Have you done that? Several if us have. Ever rewind one of these motors? Several of us have. You've seen my fleet, none of them have stock motors. Not one. There is zero difference between each motor, zero. The old T and DT don't have a cooling hole in the can, but the windings are the same, the wraps are the same, the lengths are the same, the brushes are the same... Oh and here is the big one, contact Losi support and they'll tell you it's the same, contact horizon hobby and they'll tell you it's the same. But if you say it's different, what leg do I have to stand on to argue. | |
