Whats the difference between this motor/esc compared to the Velineon VXL-3s brushless with 3500 motor? More power?
871159
Yes power. The velineon is for 1/10 and the mamba is for 1/8 and some 1/5. The lower the kv number the more power. Yes the put this setup in the traxxas e revo and e maxx. They are the size of most 1/8. One more thing that is different is the mamba use up to 6 s lipo
871160
The difference is the vxl only holds a 3s the mamba holds a 4s-6s crazy power
871161
This is a 1/8th scale system with a 4 pole motor compared to the velenion wich is a 1/10th scale system with a 2 pole motor. this system is much larger than the velenion and can handle up to 6s power ware the velenion can only handle 3s. And if your asking this question do more research on motors and systems before you buy. Just a sugestion.

I use this motor and controller in a 15 lb wt class combat robot the they have lasted 2 years and easy to program , and very durable.We have been thrown in the air 7 feet and never miss a beat. Hope this helps.

Lower temps and a Esc and motor that can handle up to 6S power. If you run both these systems on 3S the velineon might go a bit faster but 3S is all the VXL can handle. As soon as you put this thing on 4S+ it hauls ass and is the fastest 8th scale motor you can buy. No other motor on the market that I know can go as fast as this thing and it has a bucket loads of TORQUE! Basically the lower the KV the more torque and the higher the KV the more top speed. The reason why this so fast is because there's no other 8th scale motor with as high of a KV as this one that can handle 6S power that I know of. If that makes sense?

I got the mm2 in my e maxx on 6s took down a e revo with some Novak system in it
871165
I'll tell you man, much more power. Complete tunability over ESC and motor. All though its much bigger than the vxl but totally worth it. 5mm shaft by the way. But yea. You want speed and brutal power this is the way to go. Ideally use 4s. Perfect combo
871166
vxl3s is 10th scale and mm2 is 8th scale tons more power better have a bullet proof 10th scale if ur going to put the mm2 in one

If I remember correctly at 22.2 v on 6cell Lipo it generates 5.5hp. Hope that helps!

Pro is better, it's not as heavy and it is built really well, brushless motor kicks way better and is much faster!

You have to put a castle creations mamba monster 2 with esc. Then you will have a brushless motor setup.

I say brushless they have more power and have great take off power with the right esc and battery (I advise lipid battery) I've had my volcano epx pro for about 2 weeks and I'm impressed by it factory but I already upgraded my motor, esc and my gears and I can say mine runs about 65mph and I love it Great beginner rc

Yes. This is designed for brushed motors only. A brushless ESC will have 3 wires for the motor and a brushed ESC has only 2.

I have used a 3s 1300 mah all the way up to a 3s 2200 mah battery with this motor and it performed admirably. My esc is a neewer 30a. The 20a esc will work but not for extended use. Almost any ground contact by the prop will surge the 20a with this motor and burn it out. The prop size really depends on the model. Being a 1000kv motor it does spin slower than a parkjet motor or the like. I have almost 15 hrs total flight time on this motor. I put. 9x6, 10x4 and a 11x5 on it. The 10x4 is where it got the best thrust without chewing through the battery quickly. The 9x6 gave me the best flight times and the 11x5 was awesome for 3d flight. It really depends on the weight of your aircraft. Hope this helps. I have used a 3s 1300 mah all the way up to a 3s 2200 mah battery with this motor and it performed admirably.

If you use a 3cell lipo this will be faster than the velineon. It will generate heat. If you pound on this motor with a 3 cell you will probably go into thermal. Most people would use a 2 cell with the motor however I would not. None of my cars are spec cars.

You need the VXL speed control as well, a brushless motor will not run with the brushed speed control you have in your bandit.

Anything new is going to be a brushless motor. I would compare the emax with another traxxas truck the Revo. The Revo seems to be more stable for cornering. Check out Lipo batteries too, they last longer and makes the truck way faster.

Save your money to go to brushless. It just ran a little bit better than the stock brushed motor.

The Brushed Motor systems can only handle 2S LiPo's. You would have to go with the 71074-1 brushless e-Revo to get that speed!

I only ran this once with the stock motor and speed control to test it out because I bought it to run brushless with the all steel gears that it has. It's not very fast out of the box, probably like 15 mph . I never tried it with a Lipo, I removed the factory motor and esc and put in a 3800kv brushless

Velineon. Might spell it wrong lol but it's waterproof with waterproof esc brushless

I can't find any data on how powerful the motors are in either of these models. Everyone says they are powerful, but what watts are the motors for each?

Hi Luis, i have a 4x4 Axial Ax-10 Ridgecrest and looking for more power i bought the Atomik motor, when i install it i couldnt believe the fast my rc become, it has a lot of power and torque, if you wanna faster car then buy this motor. greetings Jose A

With the brushed motor it will up to about 20-25 mph with the stock battery if I were guessing. After my son drove my brushless we swapped in a Castle Creations sidewinder 4600kv motor esc combo and a 5200mah 2s battery. Now it is closer to 40-45 mph. And is really tough. My son runs his a naked cage as well no body on it. He loves it.

this one is a brushed motor, they do also have brushless options for a higher price on amazon.
