e-slayer motor
 
I have an interesting problem and I need some assistance. I have an e-revo that I converted into an e-slayer. I need a new motor for it and I'm not sure what to get. I'm running a mamba max(not the pro) and 11.1 lipos. Right now I have a 2650 kv castle monster motor as a temp until I get something else and it is way over powered and slow. Even with a 20t pinion it still slow. So far my choices seem to be:
SC4X 5.5T Sensor Brushless 550
http://www.greathobbies.com/producti...d_id=TEKTT2242
or
Ballistic 550 BL 6.5T/3400Kv
http://www.greathobbies.com/producti...rod_id=NOV3506
But these are both sensored motors and I've heard some sensored motors don't work well with sensorless escs.
Or
Pro4 Brushless SC 4x4 Motor 3300kv 5mm Shaft
http://www.greathobbies.com/producti...d_id=TEKTT2502
which is also sensored but from the write up is built to run sensorless. But it just seems small for what I want to use it for.

I'm at a loss as to what to do. All I want is a motor around the 3-4000kv range in a larger than 540 can size. That won't destroy my wallet like the 1/8th scale castle motors. Thanks, any help would be great.

Look at the Castle 1410 3800kv motor with a 5mm shaft. Just keep an eye on temps.

The 2650 is happier with 4s Lipo.

I looked at the castle motors, I really wanted a 4 pole in fact but they are all 540 sized except for the 2400kv which will have the same problem as my 2650. This is my problem, Its like the motor I want doesn't exist.....
