I have a senton mega 4x4 and I need a new motor but they’re sold out and on back order everywhere. So I’m wondering what other motors I could use that would fit. I would upgrade to brushless but I don’t have the money for now.
 
Any recommendations for a heat sink? As for brushless I’m going to get something that uses the current batteries I have. Since I’ve bought two.
I’ve killed two motors in a couple months any idea what would cause that
 
Just a 540 heatsink without a fan. You can get one with fans but sometimes the fans won't spin when clipped to a brushed motor. You can pick up a 60a esc and 3650 motor combo and will still be able to use your Nimh packs without much issue. The motor getting too hot is the most common cause of a brushed motor failing, dirt and debris fouling up the inside of the motor would be the next. A lot of different factors could come into play for the motor getting too hot and failing but basically the motor is getting overworked for the load being put on it.
