Advice on brushless motor for 4wd buggy

[chokoboy]

Im about to buy a new sensored brushless motor for one of my 1/10 4wd buggy's and i have been checking out LRP X-12 6,5t, is it correct that the 6,5t is 5400kv? Is this enough power for a 4wd buggy, i drive on a small tight dirt/astro track (astro only about 25%)
Any other motor tips please!

Not sure what Kv rating the 6.5 is, but they are generally the equivalent of a 9/10 turn brushed motor. It should be fine for your track. Most people in the UK run 5.5 in the 4wd, but this is probably on slightly larger tracks than yours.

Anyone knows if 5400kv is enough power for my 4wd?

[stampede vxlboy]

that a big kv rating than should be well fast

The 6.5 is more than adequate for the 4WD.

kv rating isn't the same as power...
