New HobbyStar V2 Motor

[jr744]

I got a new HobbyStar V2 motor. It has a temperature sensor port, which I'm not going to use. It looks good and the wires are about 1 1/4 inches longer, than the wires on the V1 motors. I got the 4282 1780KV for my Notorious. I'm about to pair it up with a HobbyWing Max 6 ESC.

I like the extra wire length. Shoud be an awesome motor for the Notorious!

Solid choice! Let us know how it performs, what gearing?

I’d go at least 18-19/50 with 6S backflips

I use a HobbyStar 5692 motor on my K8S. I really like it. Just as good on 8s as the 2028 motor from Castle and it's way cheaper too. The Castle motor locked up on me (probably because of chassis slap and the motor being too damn heavy and only supported on one end is my theory).

You read my mind! I was leaning towards a 19 tooth pinion.

The new motor looks good.

I wish someone would hack that sensor port so it could communicate with Spektrum telemetry receivers. I’m just not smart enough.

I've been eyeing these new motors as well. I assume you picked up the 4282 since it was on a crazy sale this week?

 

[jr744]

It's done! Talk about a perfect fit!

A 92mm just needs a skirt tweak, why aren’t you out testing it!!

How do you like this motor with the max 6? Just ordered a HS v2 combo to utilize the temp port for my TyJave that blew the Firma 150 on the first run.

Nice motor! I was looking at a 4292 for my Fireteam @ 1500kv. The older version is 4092. I hope it performs well like to follow your lead

Pyfore/Speedline for Mojave that have been modified

Gearing spot on for temps/standing backflips? Still without motor fan?

I'm running a 19 tooth pinion. The motor gets a little hot. Nothing too serious yet. I might add a fan soon, because of the hot summer heat that's coming.

BUT WAIT THERES MORE! There's a handful of these V2's for sale at rc juice right now, I'm thinking about a 4274, 2500kv for a v3 infraction.

That’s where I purchased my combo from, $120 for rebranded Max 8v3 ESC/ Motor temp sensored
