It's not a problem, it's normal. The ESC should be cooler than the motor. And just stick with the 20T pinion for brushless motors, they need to be geared more aggressively than brushed motors. The limited M chassis gearing range was designed for older brushed motors.

Hmmm i see... So what ever the brushless motor (13.5t or 17.5t) just stick to 20t pinion??
Thank you for explaining 😀😀😀

Yes, with the short gearing inherent in the minis, you don't need to worry a whole lot about brushless motor heat, it's hard to overheat them. Now, while I have not tried a 13.5 in mine, I have used a 17.5 & currently use a 21.5(along with the Hobbywing XR10 Justock, PERFECT match for this car & spec racing in general), & I have to admit, I like them. I think the 17.5 would be just about right for a good sized track(& for a small to med. one, the 21.5 is excellent). Oh, & I also agree that you NEVER want your ESC to be anywhere the temperature your motor reaches, for ESC's, the cooler the better....

Nice info.. i think i should gather money now.. 13.5t BL im coming 😂😂😂
I just doubt about that.. bcause its my first mini chassis

the track in my local hobby shop...
Not really much tight turn and it is soooooo hugeeeee
That's why i need fast motor lol..
I want to post the pict but i just registered to this forum and i'm not allowed to post url until i make a certain number of posts

Honestly speaking 13.5 is too much power. Unless 4wd mini or you are racing on a BIG track (I guess which you have).

A Hobbywing 13T Ezrun combo (380 sized motor internals in a 540 sized exterior can) is a pretty good balance of power for these minis, and are pretty cheap.

So you think better 17,5t?

At another lhs in my country the ezrun 13t all out of stock..
Im from indonesia by the way..
When ordering from ebay is depressing.. from the price and shipping time..

But there is another brushless by sky rc leopard 13t too.. but the review is bad.. the motor tends to broke down easily

I prefer stick to hobbywing brand
Good quality and not to pricey like castle, tekin etc. In my country the 3 brands are to expensive.. bcause of tax and bla bla bla..

What do you guys think?
The track at graha tamiya LHS nearby my home [IMG][/IMG]

That's a big track. 13.5t would be fine. Maybe a bit fast. Watch timing and temperature.

I don't know if better as I don't know your track, but be gentle with acceleration. These FWD cars wheel spin easily and could prematurely wear your gears in the process.

That track looks plenty big enough for 13.5T. 17.5T and you'll be wanting to add turbo and boost IMO.

Hey guys i found this BL motor at lhs

Ares 17.5t sensored motor by skyrc

Is any of you tried this?
My m05 has tble 02s and i want to pair it with that motor.. is it compatible with the tble? Is it good motor?
Or buy new combo that have same brand one another (esc+motor)?

If the combination is fine

Rather than purchasing a sports tuned motor, better I bought this motor

I haven't tried that combination myself but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Edit: It might be worth asking the hobby shop if they can solder on the appropriate connectors for you if it doesn't come with them.

So the tble 02s not always must use tamiya BL motor right?? As long as it sensored?

About the connector, of course i just let the hobby shop mechanic do it for me haaaaa.. 😁😁😁😁
Just sit back and everything is good..
