I'll assume the motors are the Pullmaster 1. They are a colbalt magnet 10T 7 pole arm. They run well on 8-14 nicd cells or 3-4S LiPo.
I ran these for years in some of my puller trucks but now use brushless in most of them.
I moved a set of PM 1s to my Bully crawler and they work well on 3S.
Here's some specs:


What model of Astro ESC do you have?
Can't give much help there without knowing.

I don't recall any writing on the speed control the motors are the 1s though. I also have a set of gold can clodzilla motors. These are new never ran and im thinking about running those in my clod with the dragoon chassis. But I've always wanted a set of these motors and traded a friend out of them. I've had a few people wanting them but really don't wanna get rid of them for just anything. From what I remember they were expensive.
Thanks for your info and time.

Most of the Astro ESCs are forward only for boat and planes. Many of them do not have built in BECs either.

I ran a PM1 in my AX-10 for a while and ended up twisting the entire axel housing off at the C knuckle and distroyed an RC4WD R2 gearbox. Had to build my own set of beef tubes after that.

The 205 is forward only, no BEC, 100 Amp continuous (500A peak), 50 volt max.
They were popular on large Open 2 pulling trucks running 28 NiCd cells and 2 of the Pullmaster 3 motors. I still have a couple on the shelf.

It still has its place for a high voltage, high power brushed motor setup like for a boat. They are big & bulky by todays standard.
