13.5 motor recomendation
 
Whats Quick! runnnig 7.4 lipo in touring cars

jonny123 24-08-2009 05:21 PM

speed in this class really goes down to what esc u have. but motor wise the gm is quickest and runs cooler than the rest. the novak is quick aswell.

Brooks 24-08-2009 06:14 PM

I would recommend the losi 13.5 motor
Cheap :p
Lots of power :p
Brilliant with a Lrp Sphere Tc Spec speedo :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

jonny123 24-08-2009 06:36 PM

yeh its cheap, but he did ask whats quick and the losi well...
Its not quick enough if at the top level.

RickRick 24-08-2009 06:43 PM

going to be running a tekin rs pro

jonny123 24-08-2009 06:46 PM

Ok thats a good esc with variable timing etc. So definately go for a GM as they are the quickest and run coolest and will be very quick with ur esc. The Tekin motors are also good but dont run as cool as the GM's as the GM's have cooling holes.

TBH i wouldnt recomend a Losi, Just my opinion.

Are top driver at our local club runs a losi 13.5 motor and he wins
Mate... They are quick and really good value
They are competitive motors, i will run that same motor at a big event: .....Rug Racers.....

Gm stuff, have never tried but looks good

overson 24-08-2009 09:04 PM

Ive tried the losi and LRP x11 and found them good but must say not as good as the GM starwind.
The GM is much faster and run's cooler

Speed Passion 13.5t's are very fast spinning, but not very powerful. I've been looking at a CS Electronics 13.5t, which while not being very fast spinning (2750kv vs 3600kv of the Speed Passion) is a very powerful motor, boasting 260w of power, whereas the Speed Passion only has 165w of power.

maybe check out the new version 3.0 speed passions , they looking good :)

GRIFF55 17-09-2009 05:27 PM

I was just about to suggest the 3.0's

Brooks 17-09-2009 07:46 PM

What about the Tekin Redline 13.5 motor?????

Have just bought one so will find out :p

paulm 17-09-2009 11:04 PM

GM all the way, trouble free:thumbsup:

BlackedOutMugen 05-10-2009 12:40 AM

With a Tekin or SPX the trinity duo is quick! Lately I have been running a ballistic 13.5 though. Im not a fan of trinity. But there motor is fast!

Wish I could try a GM 13.5. To much money to get one over to me though:thumbdown:

sparrow.2 05-10-2009 06:40 AM

The Corally Red Series sensored are supposed to be really good too. 400W according to Corally and a touring car freak friend of mine.

Darren Boyle 05-10-2009 10:59 AM

The all new EPIC DUO 2 13.5 is highly reccomended and VERY fast....

the GM motors don't seem to run as well on the Tekin speedo...

jonny123 05-10-2009 03:22 PM

Yes chris your right, ive heard that actually since the above post. I also have heard that the rotor shaft on the tekin motors are very soft where you tighten the pinion:confused:.

The new speed passion 3 motor is a very good tough motor that runs very cool compared to others even compared to the GM due to the wires from the esc going directly on to each of the phase wires. This makes them very efficient but they dont quite have the top end.
