LRP Vector 5.5 with Sphere?

[Eotz]

Hi.

Do you think that is possible to use a Vector 5.5 motor with an Sphere ESC without problems?.

Greetings.

is it a sphere or sphere competition

if it is the competition then no probs

if it is the sphere then watch for things getting warm (mount a fan or cut holes in bodey shell for air flow) as thaqt motor is on the speedos limit

Is just and Sphere.

What happend is that I make a mistake when I make the order for the motor and I took the 5.5 not the 6.5. I heard that it could work fine but I'm worry about the over heating.

Thanks.

Afaik the Sphere is rated up to the 3 star (6.5??) and then it needs the heat sink and a capacitor added for that. I've had good reliability with this motor, but it can get very hot. I'd maybe think about trying to swap the motor with someone maybe?

Ive only got a normal sphere and plan to run a 5.5 with it and see what happens!! not using silly batteries only gp3300's so i 'THINK' it should be ok!!!!
if you see a car on fire at batley in the comming weeks then the answer will be NO you cant!!!!
