Talion Hobbywing Max6 esc with Hobbywing 5687 1100kv Motor

Should I put the Hobbywing Max6 5687 1100kv system in my Notorious or Talion? I'm pulling it from another car I have that I don't run very often

i think that motor is definitely too much for both rigs but if I had to pick one i'd put it in the notorious because the talion supposed to be at least somewhat nimble lol.

Yea I was leaning more toward the Notorious due to it being a stunt truck I'm still debating if I wanna even put it in either it's in an Xmaxx atm

I don't see the big motor being responsive enough for a short wheel base Notorious. I think it would better suit the Talion.

That’s a heavy motor. It might be okay for ripping around but I wouldn’t put it in a jumper.

You make a valid point

I'm in the opposite camp. Notoriouses are at their best with smaller motors that rev up fast. With the Talion you can massively over gear it and build one hell of a speed truck.

See I'm not looking to get speed with it Ive got my Limitless v2 build for that lol but I was thinking the Notorious due to it being a stunt truck for flips and what not in the air

would a 11000kv motor even fit in a talion or notorious

 

[Army_Vet_Rc_Addict]

It's 1100 not 11000 but yes I have heard of it being done

 

[BashingBrian]

None of the above..!!
In my opinion it's too much for those trucks, put it in the Talion and you'll ruin the handling or put it in the Notorious and you'll be exploding tyres every two minutes...

 

[hobo]

it throw's my kraton 8s about like a rag doll couldn't imagine it in a 1/8 scale basher would be far too much

Apart from the weight issue, it’s also a pain to install that motor in an 1/8 scale car.

You need an aftermarket motor mount for 56mm motors.
You need 8mm pinions.
You have to shorten the motor shaft because it’s too long.

It’s a lot of work that probably isn’t worth it. I’d sell the motor and buy something smaller. 4985, 4292, etc. The classifieds section on this site sees a lot of views and items move quickly.
