which motor ??

[shaun m]

Hey , i'm after 2 new motors , one 6.5t and a 7.5t , but would like a smooth low end , with a good top end ..

what's peoples recomendations ?? will be used on speedpassion gt 2.1 esc's ..

have considered the orion ( but too much money ) or the lrp x20 series ??

Vampire motors are worth considering. Cheaper than most and good performance. The v1 motors are more punchy and the v2 are smoother but still have loads of top end.

Might be worth looking into is the speedpassion v3 1cell
Lee Martin I think used a 6.5 so he got nearly the same top end but punch of a 7.5 easier to drive as I say this was a while bk but something u could look into ? Just an idea

Also look at brands that have a rpm and torque range and go for the rpm as they are more top end power

Cheers mate ., will bear that in mind ,but not sure on the sp motors ,as i'm not sure about the plug in terminals...

I loved the speed passion v3 motors, until the connectors worn. U can't beat a direct solder job! Look at the thunder power ones been told they r very good, I run orion vst2 ones

Getting the Durango ready the other night I noticed that one of the 4mm ESC connectors was a bit loose when plugged into the LiPo so instead of going through all the aggro of soldering on a new one, I just changed the sprung part on the male terminal and it's good as new, you should be able to do this with the SP motor connectors as well when they get a bit worn. Are they 3.5mm? If so they're easy to get hold of
