my losi ten t brushless conversion project
 

i am converting my losi ten t into brushless power. i will be running it on a total of 4s lipo batteries. i will post pictures when i get it all put together.

ill follow this sounds interesting and question are you going to give us pictures throughout the build or just before and afters

i will post pictures as i am putting everything together.

nice thats what i like to hear im in

here is just a little teaser picture for you guys

some time next week i will get the parts in i need to starting building it. i cant wait.

how well would a novak ballistic 550 motor with a 4.5 stator work on 4s lipo battery?

i have seen it done in emaxx but i think you need the older 4.5 hv, in that ten t it will be violent as all hell, i would suggest either a tenshock 3500 kv on 3s or a castle 1415 on 3 or 4s

i dont feel like buying a new motor since i already have a novak 550 with a 4.5 stator.

The HV motors and the ballistic 550s are identical, they use the same rotor, bearings, stator wire, ect. That being said, I've seen the 4.5t with the 14mm tuning rotor run on 4s in an e-revo, and its a monster. Watch your motor temps, and pick up the heatsink, and mount a nice sized fan on it.

Yea just watch your temps with the 4.5 on 4s. It will be, and there is no other word for it, insane.

i do have a big turnigy fan on a heatsink.

this is the same exact heatsink and fan that i am putting on my motor guys.

i think it will work

i can't see it staying cool for longer than a couple mins. i had a hard time keeping my 4.5 ballistic cool on 2S in my ten-t. that was with a 14T pinion. i think the smallest you can fit is 11T. no way it's staying cool on 4S.

Your going to have to hack away at that heat sink to fit the Ten T /SCTE
