Blx 180 and a 6 pole motor?

[Darack73]

Straight to it. Will the blx180. Run a 6 pole motor? Looking at Toro 6 pole motor.

Just ordered a Toro X8P 6pole 2400kv motor and the TS150A controller for my Typhon. Was told esc needs to be programmed to run 6pole motor, didn't want to take a chance on the blx185

I know its been awhile but how did it work. I tried the 2000kv toro 6pole with the blx 180. motor was fine although it was smoother it had less torque. And the ESC got real hot. Stock gearing.

Wait BLX180 or BLX185? I would not recommend running a BLX180 at all, I'm honestly surprised there are still any around as much as they were known to catch on fire.

And I just realized this thread is like 5 years old..................

I had a blx180, but a member wanted so I dumped it. He knew the risks of using it.
