Questions & Answers

Real questions from real customers. Why not ask your own?
is there anything that needs to be soldered at all
Tim Bell / 7th March 2025

These come pre-soldered with a deans connector.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Would this fit in the hpi m3 and would it be OK to rub 4s init? Thanks
Mark Knowles / 25th November 2023

This will fit the 1/10th touring car no problem, this system is a 2s only system so will not run 3 or 4s lipo.

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Hi, Would this be suitable and compatible with a Tamiya Mercedes C11 with 6 cell NiMh 7.2v? Would there be anything else required such as connectors or soldering?
Robert / 13th September 2023

This will work for you yes, the ESC may be a litte large to find space for in the chassis, you could look at HW38020319  but this will require soldering

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Will this fit a ftx banzi ?
Charlie / 14th April 2023

Yes it will fit fine and run comfortably on 2s lipo.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Will this fit the ftx vantage and how do I know what my KV are on my batteries
Lewis / 28th June 2022

The KV rating is the motor,  so the motor  KV is 4350,   this means the motor will do 4350rpm for every 1 volt of power that it has, so if using a 7.4v 2s lipo   4350 x 7.2 = total RPM

Si @ Wheelspin Models
What size is the shaft please
Nicholas Baron / 29th April 2022

The motor shaft will be 3.2mm

Si @ Wheelspin Models
could you advise if this would be suitable as an upgrade to my fix outlaw brushed version currently. im looking for more power as I find it a Biot on the slow side. thanks
Oliver / 24th January 2022

With your car being off road, we would recommend the lower KV version ET0411  using 2s lipo  or ET0410 using 3s lipo

 

The 4350kv is for more on road and flat surfaces.

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Will this motor be good to replace the standard RS540 in a Tamiya Dark Impact?
Paul / 8th August 2021

It would fit yes - but probably a bit underpowered.  I'd look at say HW38010203 instead

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Would this work well for rally cross in a tamiya tt02?
Justin / 9th June 2021

Yes this would be spot on for that car.

Anthony @ Wheelspin Models
Hi I am looking to replace the brushed motor in my traxxas 2wd rustler model number 37054-1 with a brushless with matched esc budget is around £90.00 can you recommend please. Regards Mark
Mark / 15th April 2021

This will physically fit but is probably a bit underpowered.

HW38010203 would be a better choice

 

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi I’m looking for a brushless upgrade for my ftx kanyon would this motor be any good for it ?
Richard / 17th July 2020

This would be too powerful, you would need the Hobbywing Axe system.

Anthony @ Wheelspin Models
Is this faster than FTC carnage brushed motor
Ollie Tyacke / 20th April 2020

Yes this is a brushless upgrade

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi could you please tell me if this ESC comes with deans and bullet connectors already fitted to ESC and MOTOR bullets . many thanks Mike
Mike / 29th January 2020

The motor has bullets on it, but they do not come with a battery connector.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
How would this set up perform in a stampede with 3s lipo.
Chris / 18th November 2019

The stampede is a bit heavy for this, especially on 3S. You'd need to be looking at a much higher rated system to run 3S in that, something like perhaps HW38010200 

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hello, I’m new in this “toys” I well buy this combo and I like to now what kind of lipo can I get to¿ ET0422 Combo
Bruno / 29th May 2019

We'd reccomend a 2S LiPo. Something like VZ0317 would be ideal

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Looking for a budget brushless set up for my rustler xl5. I feel I need more speed both off the mark and top end. not looking to beat any land speed records but I do want the increase in speed to be quite drastic. Minimum of 15mph Would be great but more the better. also need lipo and charger. Waterproof would be a bonus but not essential. Cheers
Brett Wilding / 26th February 2019

This will fit, but you would need to keep an eye on motor and ESC temperatures and gear accordingly.

A decent LiPo battery and charger without breaking the bank would be VZ0317 and ET0225

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi I have a hsp xstr off road buggy looking to upgrade motor and esc to brushless is there any good recommendation for this please? Also do I need a programming card or do they not need programming thanks in advance.
Daniel Hayes / 16th February 2019

We don't sell HSP so it's difficult for us to advise fully, however if your car takes standard 540 size motors (which is likely) then yes - this should fit.

As with any motor upgrade, it's important to keep an eye on temperatures and gear accordingly to avoid damage.

This combo comes with a program card.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
would this be ok in my ftx carnage? if not what one would?
Stephen / 27th December 2018

We'd probably go for a lower KV such as the ET0420

As with any motor/ESC setup, always keep an eye on temperature and gear accordingly.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi WSM Will this motor/esc combo be ok for my HPI Firestorm (currently brushed) ? Best Regards Jorgen from Denmark
Jorgen Halvorsen / 29th May 2018

Hmm, it's more suited to lighter vehicles.

For that truck we'd start with say ET0430

 

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
would this fit bsd prime assault? would this fit ftx viper? would this fit Trooper Pro Edition SCT?
Ellis / 9th April 2018

This is a standard 1:10 scale system. The only model from your list we sell is the FTX Viper, which I can confirm this would physcially fit - however it's  bit underpowered.

 

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Will this be a good combo for an anesmann magnum which does go off-road. Or would it be better for a 1/10th tamiya touring car da03
Gareth / 15th October 2017

This is ideally suited to 1:10 touring cars.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Could I put this in my maverick strada xb?
James Churchill / 25th July 2017
It would fit, however it's a little underpowered.
Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Would this model fit the traxxas slash?
William / 11th June 2017

Yes it will fit, however we'd recommend a lower KV for a Slash.
