This is a test that will test the TP 5850 motor against the Hor racing SSS 5694
TP Power vs horracing sss motor

twissted

As you can see on paper they look alike. The deal with TP power is to put both though the same test until there toast! This should be a fun test.
I will be using a boat and 2 different custom 1/5 buggies to do this test. Anything you want to see please let me know.

Hey Tower Hobbies do you want to see any products in this test Lipos esc's???

martno1fan

Not sure how your going to do a fair test but the sss motor is not a HOR racing motor they are just a retailer the motors are made by TFL hobbies.The test if done properly might mean something if both motors were the same size and kv but theyre not .

Translation: "Hey Tower Hobbies, do you want to send me some more free stuff???"

this test is a consumer test so Horracing is how he branded these sss line of motors. SSS is how I bought them and is how most are sold so I think I will stay with what I have started the post with.

martno1fan

SSS motors are the brand name from TFL hobbies.
I wonder how TP will react when if they find out the SSS motors are better than his lol.

Pilot_Guy

Chevy just contacted me to test next years nascar engine against the toyota whatever.

twissted

I would like to try the new vett!

My Feedback: (1)

OK...that is very funny Jay

Twissted how goes with the test?.....i´ve just bought the TFL 5684-1200kv....so Im very interested for my Cat-Spring-build.

BACKEMF

That is a good motor. I run it in a 40" Promise Hobby Kevlar/carbon mono. Runs well with just a 452 prop but, can take more prop. Ran out of time testing this year and it's too cold now. I might get out this weekend to test one last time to try some larger props. I use a SF240 Pro esc.

The motors are going to be very close to TP Power but, that is to be seen.

Twisted starts a thread in a boat forum and then says he will be doing the test with buggies??? WTH is going on? I don't like to bash anyone but, it would be really nice to see him finish one of his boats run it and show it on video. He had one short video of his twin Zonda that lasted a few seconds because it flipped at the doc and he ended the vid with an expletive remark I can't repeat.

baadebygger

Hi

I intend to use 450-3 blades on the TFL 5684-1200kv...running a 131cm. cat. from baoli.

BACKEMF

That's fine. You may notice that these motors can turn even larger props. 450 x 3 is a good start, watch run times & temps. You may be able to turn a X455 2 blade or more depending on the hull size etc...

martno1fan

Those motors are huge i intend using the 5694 versions in a twin 58" apache and ill be swinging 60-65 mm props on 8-10 s.
Mart

BACKEMF

That should be great! Can't wait to see it go!

axel2

So what happenend??? I don´t see any results ???

Got RPM

See post #5.

what is the best motor for the a TFL Zonda to go 85+ MPH TP 4060 1720KV 3Y, TP 4050 1700KV 7D, leopard 4092 1730KV 3D, SSS 4092 1650KV D with a 442 prop or 4519 prop?

twissted

the 4519 prop and the TP 4050 2220kv motors with good esc's! The Sea King 180 are ideal.

frank1234

Will a 4050 2050 3y with a 4519prop or 442 prop on 6s get me to 85+mph?

Got RPM

No way with the x442. Maybe with the 4519. I assume a twin with 6S2P?



.

frank1234

so the TFL Zonda cat will go 85+ MPH with the TP 4050 2220kv motor on 6s with a 4519 prop
