Tried from 13-16T to make sure it wasnt the gearing. Even at 13 is just didnt seem to have get up and go. The traxxas vxl would win in a drag race if you had two identical trucks.
The rotor was abnormally easy to remove. The VXL rotor rips out of your fingers when placing it inside of the can. This one, not so much.
Unless I'm missing something, this motor should be stupidly powerful compared to a 540 canned motor correcto-mundo?
