Looking for upgrade
Hi everyone!
Im wondering about upgrading my b44 brushless combo to a better one. As a noob my local shop sold me a Leopard 12T 3300KV with 60A ESC. Now, I want to upgrade it but i dont want to spend so much on it. Ive been looking and i found turnigy and hobbywing as good/cheap esc(preferable hobbywing). This is what i found: Trackstar gen 2 120a 65€ Trackstar turbo 120a v2 70€ Hobbywing ezrun max10 sct 120a 79€ The last one from HW is a sensorless esc. Then ill be using turnigy trackstar motor i think, something around 6,5T as ill be running on-road. Trackstar 6.5T 5485KV 30€ Trackstar 6.5T 4776KV V2 44€ I have a 4200mah 35c 2s lipos(saddle pack) and 19/81 gearing. Should I go for that 120a esc and 6.5T motor? Wanted to put links and b44 gering rates but theres no way to post a link. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks :smile: |

Speed passion reventon pro 140a + speed passion competition v3 6.5T 120€ I do like Hobbywing a lot as well but I wouldn't get the EZrun combos for racing. I would spend the extra money for the xerun versions. |

Out of all those combos, the speed passion would be my choice. I've used their motors and ESC's in the past and they were solid.

I found this comment over the site, "The B44 has an internal gear ratio of 2.5:1, so with your 13.5 brushless the manufacturers say you should be running a Final Drive Ratio (FDR) of around 7. If you run the 84t spur then you should use the 30t pinion, maybe down to a 28 if the temps are too high (84/30*2.5=7 FDR). Both my brother and myself have just started with 13.5 LRP/Novak Brushless Systems on offroaders and we found we had to gear a little lower. Factory reccomends 7, but we have been at 7.4 or 7.6. That would mean your 84/28 or 84/27 might be the best option." Should i be gearing 27T pinion for optimal performance or is that first image recommended by electronic manufacturer and not team associated? |

Many thanks for your answer. What about gearing?
