Engine esc issues
 

OK, i bought a tornado EPX pro and took out the entire electronic system and put it in a hpi blitz, everything fit fine but i have way to much power, i tried to tune it down but im gonna end up buying a new less powerful motor. My question is will a differnt motor work with the stock esc, also out of curiosity what brand of motor is the stock motor and what is the esc.

soccerrules- Any 540 Brushless Sensorless motor not exceeding 5000kv will work with that ESC

Ok thanks! one more question the 3 wires from the esc are differnt colors than the new engine wire colors and im afraid that it will fry it if i guess wrong the first time.

RE: Engine esc issues
 

Not possible to fry it from connecting the wires wrong. If you connect the wires and the motor turns the wrong direction. Switch any of the 2 wires, or change the direction switch on the transmitter. Either option will change the direction the motor turns.

Ok, i went and got a brushless Novak 13.5 motor will it work? I only ask because the sensor wire (if thats the right name for it) dosnt have a place to go on the esc

RE: Engine esc issues
 

soccerrules- that motor will not work as it is designed to be ran with a sensored ESC which the Tornado doesn't have.
