yes it will work just make sure you solder the wires the right way so the motor can go in the correct direction.

I want a better one than the vxl 3s. The rx8 can run sensored/sensor less. Any motor I choose will be good then. I am planning on getting the pro4 soon also. I have a slash 4x4. And if I get it now and the esc burns up cause of my temporary 2 pole motor I'll be pi$$ed. Any recommended motors??

The MMP would but if your gonna get a Pro4 get the RX8. I had both on the Pro4 and the RX8 had alot more power then the MMP. Plus Tekins CS is the best hands down.
