ANyone have any recent feedback on these motors? I am looking to pickup a mod motor to play around with in a MM B5. Might get a 8.5 or 10.5, unsure.

I am running the 13.5's in my buggy,stadium truck and SC truck, I have an 8.5 in my Mod SC truck and a 6.5 in my 22-4. I think these motors are fantastic and every bit as good as the Tekins I took out of my rides. Pair them up with SMC Lipo's and the new SMc ESC and you will be set....LOL |
wildcat will let you know after the weekend few of my buddies just picked up 3 of them.. will report back after the weekend of racing.
|
cool. I hated tekin motors, lol. saying they are like tekins means, they run warm and are slow :)
|
They are for sure not slow and I don't have any heat problems either. I never ran a Tekin so I can't compare that for you.
|
From what I recall, these are made by Dualsky, no? Those motors have a good reputation for being strong and fast, which certainly is reflected with the SMC motors. I have a 10.5 I love, may get some more windings for other applications :)
|
Yes they are Dualsky OEM. Im kind of interested in the new ESC as well. http://www.smc-racing.net/index.php?...product_id=238
|
Yeah, I saw the ESC, looks very good! At first I thought it was a Hobbywing, but the specs look different (and good!). Maybe another Dualsky OEM? I don't know enough about those ESCs to say, but definitely tempting. I wonder if they'll offer "blinky only" and 12th scale versions eventually.
|
The esc software has nice features
|
Although the etching could be better

I've been very happy with my SMC motors. I run an 8.5 in my b5m, runs great no issues at all with heat--if anything i believe it might run a tad bit cooler than most. I would not recommend an 10.5 in a b5m for mod racing though. The motors tend to be a tad bit soft on the bottom--very smooth but not super torquey as some mod motors so I'd recommend the 8.5 for the b5m.
|
I just ran the 5.5 in my 22-4 first time out Sunday and ran awesome! 8min at 140. Had to adjust the speedo because of so much rip.
|
These motors are awesome. I run an 8.5 in my 22 2.0 and a 6.5 in my 4 wheeler and there both fast and smooth with no heat issues.
