Running a castle mamba monster esc and 2200 kv in Kraton exb. The motor is 40 (41.5 with fins) x 75. This is a bit larger than the 2050 firma that is stock in the blx. 40x70 is the firma size.
Current gearing is 50/12
I believe if I I lower the pinion to 11t, (on 6s) the rpm should be almost identical to factory set up (blx anyway- this is exb) give or take a few hundred RPM.
I added a 40mm fan.
I run the Bluetooth link for tuning. I have the punch on low and the motor turn off on 180 for temp.
With the larger can and smaller pinion, I assume more torque than the firma 2050?
Will temp be an issue? If yes, should I up the spur gear from 50 to maybe 55?
On stock, it does hit 180 and shuts off.
If I cannot get it right with this set up, I am thinking I may move to the castle 1717 motor. If I can keep the esc I would like to. I fear it will be difficult to get the monster 8s in the space I have….
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
