In rpms it's equivalent to about 10.5. It has more torque than a 540 size 10.5 though, so it's kind of in it's own class. Between a typical 540 and a 550. a 545 ?

What sort of on road car?

Wouldn't run it in a shaft drive as it has far too much torque.

Belt drive you'd gear it high for top speed.

Sorry. It will be going in a team associated tc3. I have an opportunity to pick one up for $70 and have been wanting to covert it to brushless for a while.

Smaller Castle 1406 based motors such as the 4600 / 5700 would be a better choice

3800 would certainly be a handful

I would think a shaft is better since it wouldn't stretch?

You can run it in whatever you like, just offered an opinion.

I think that there will be quite a bit of torque steer to deal with.Even the CM36/4600 was bad about it in my TC4 on 2S. And this motor developes a lot more torque.my 2 cents,good luck.

pimprice 07-27-2011 09:08 AM

Thanks guys. I guess I'll just have to pass up on this awesome deal.

pimprice 07-27-2011 11:55 PM

Oh well. Picked it up anyways.
