So how these Totemic motors compare to the other top motors in the market place?


Any team drivers test out the Stock 17.5, 13.5, 21.5 and can shed some light in its capabilities compared to a $125 to 150 range built motors a few of the others have?

No you need the program box for the 120 that they have on the website. They each have their own.

Has any run the totemic mod motors? I'm running 7.5's in both 2wd buggy and 2wd short course. They're extremely smooth but lack bottom end. I have my SMC esc's punch setting maxed out and still not as much bottom end as other popular 7.5's. Any suggestions?

Try reducing timing to 10. Run 30 boost, 12000-27000rpm, and gear down a hair.

My 6.5 boosted is a monster everywhere. It's undergeared about 2 teeth on the pinion and has 30 degrees of boost with 5 turbo.

Just found this post. Just wanted to throw out there that I run the 4500kv 4 pole in my SCT, the 2100kv in my ebuggy, and the 1900kv buggy motor in my truggy. No lack of power with any of them. At this time I have no complaints about any of them at all after a full season with them.

I'll probably pick up another 4500kv and 2100kv as backups. I'm a spare junkie.

And when the eb410 comes out, I'll grab one of the smaller setups for that.

Totemic 17.5 stock
 
How does this motor perform in Analyzer and on track comparing to popular 17.5 motors like Trinity Monster, 24k, Team Scream, etc? I'm new to offroad 2wd buggy stock class. Track is small technical mostly high bite.
