amp mt brushless ?
- Thread starter mark66
- Start date
Hi I’m only going to run 2 s or the nickel batteries that came in the kit hopefully the trans will last or like you said time to upgrade
yea on nimh they will be fine but even 2s it's just too much speed for those gears I'm afraid. 5700 kv is going to rip lol
Really the only way to know is to send it and shoot temperatures. You may have to adjust the gearing if it gets hot or too wheelie happy
as far as I know there isn't an ECX specific spur with a tooth count larger than the stock 48P 87T. They are all less tooth count (85, 83, 81) for more top end speed. I buy my hardened steel pinions from Robinson Racing.

For something this size that motor might struggle a little bit on the low end. Are you going to be driving on road or off road?
This is what Castle recommends to use that motor for.
For off road use this motor will work much better imho https://www.castlecreations.com/castle-1410-sensored-motor-3800kv-060-0065-00
The Amp MT is a smaller sized 1/10 MT if it still has the stock tires it is about the same size and weight as a Traxxas Rustler 2wd which is a 1/10 2wd Stadium truck.

This is how you will sit with that motor running 2s.

| Application Guidelines: | For 2WD short course trucks on 2s LiPo and geared conservatively. 1/10th 2WD Stadium trucks and buggies on 2s for bashing and limited runs on 3s with conservative gearing. Great for 1/10th scale on-road cars for 2s and 3s use. NOT for use in 4WD short course trucks. Please refer to our Gearing Chart for recommended motor, battery and gearing for some of the more popular vehicles on the market. |
