is using a 3c and 4c lipo good for the 2000 kv motor ?

2000kv is good on 4s. Castle has 2200kv. Castle is a great esc. Just pay more

is the tacon 2000 kv motor from hobbywing good ?

i know you said use "4c lipo on it does the "3c lipo work good also on the (2000 kv motor) ?

They are 4 pole but not sensored. 3s will work but alot slower. I suggest 4s n gear it lower.

so a "3c" whould be to slow il use a "4s" than well on my rc8t conversion kit it came with a "50 t plastic spur gear with a 15t and a 16 t pinion .

does the 2000 kv have good top end or is that pretty much the gearing you use ?

I suggest 4s n gear lower if u want slower.

Is it for race or bash?

ok i got you on the lesser cells thing .

il try out the 50 t spur and the 15 t and check the temps.
or i wil try to find a 14t pinion.

i will be running with nitro truggys since theres not enough to have a e truggy class.

it has been 20 min mains before but not very often at all.

ok i got you on the temps and the wiring.

last question lol.



this speedo, comes with two wires i know the male bullet connecter goes into the esc but it has three bare wires whould i just have to use 3 female bullet connecters to go to the motor right ?

i remember soldering gold bullet connecters and soldering around where the wire goes into it.

ok here goes for the esc.

1 wire will go into the rx, 2 black n red will be the batt, 3 other wires will go into the motor.

hope u understand my english lol.

doesnt the, three wires shown the end with the "male bullet connecters" go into the three gold plates shown than your left with three bare wires so you would have to add three male bullet connecters right

so if i confuse you lol.

i have the pic of the female bullet connecters sorry .
