I am building an RC8te, any feedback on the Turnigy Brushless Car Power System 2350Kv/150A for this car? I am just a basher, this a good move to save 100.00 dollars from buying a Mamba unit?
The Turnigy BL setup is a rebadged Hobbywing EZRun setup. I have the same setup (but Hobbywing) and it runs great! On 4s, it rips and passes nitros on the track. On 6s, I can't even control it as it lifts the front wheels with partial throttle. However, I don't recommend running on 6s as the rpms on the motor would be too high and those motors have been known to fail on 6s. Keep it at 4s and you'll have a happy motor with a reliable and fast setup.
How much run time are you getting with the EZRun setup? I have the Turnigy one on my RC8Te running a 16t pinion/ 50t spur on 4000mah 4s 25c lipo, and Im only getting 10 minutes run time.
