Higher kV will make the brushless motor cog. It will stutter and likely need a push start. Not good for crawling. If you had that 380 size transmission then you could run a 28mm motor. Lowest I remember seeing way back was around 3000kV, I think. Even that would not be a crawler.

Correct. Outrunners will have a lot more poles and pulling power also. | |

In that case I am going back brushed. I will keep brushless for some other insane project. According to our friend Walter ( NM90 build with servo driving steering wheel ) this motor is at least a 1/3 more fun to have over stock as shown in this video.

| Re: WPL C14 Yeah, the goal is do add weight down low and, since the rails are carbon fiber, reduce weight up top too. Less weight on top + more on the bottom will lower the COG, and that's good for trail trucks and crawlers. It is possible that they could've added the carbon fiber just to be fancy too

If I may point out ( it is my hijacked thread after all ) those light weight rails up high are sort of negated by metal servo tray and bed support cross member. All you are saying CD is right, but I dont think, whoever put that bundle together, ran any numbers to maximize its ability. It is all bling - all shiny parts thrown together for not a bad price. As with all bundles problem is you are getting some good and some nobody wants parts. It almost always makes more sense to upgrade one by one as needed. I have just checked my order history. For $167 ( that includes shipping ) one can have most of metal parts from that chassis set but: - Plastic servo tray and cross member has to stay - Plastic axles housings have to stay - internals swapped for all metal with CVDs and metal knuckles plus metal driveshafts - 2 speed gearbox and brushless ESC and 2440 4000kV motor - Stock wheels - No carbon fiber rails :( So I think I have got little more insane setup for just about the same money... but more importantly it was all my decision which parts to go with, my learning experience and my failure in the end. |

Banggood now has just the carbon fiber frames. Think I may get a pair. 2PCS WPL C14 C24 Upgrade Carbon Fiber Girder 1/16 RC https://m.banggood.com/custlink/mDm3FUmo78 |
