It's a brushed esc, so unfortunately you can't use a brushless motor on it. Hope this helps. :)
A brushless ESC, also known as an Electronic Speed Control, is an electronic circuit which is used to vary the speed of an Electric Motor. It Is most often used for brushless motors.
Generally, no. But there are some designs that permit this. It is a selling point that a single electronic speed control (ESC) can be used with either type of motor, so there are some out there (like the GTB racing ESC). Check which unit you have and then review the manufacturer's support data for that unit. If a unit is not specified as being for either brushed or brushless motors, it probably isn't.
To reverse the shaft direction of a brushless RC motor, you typically need to swap any two of the three motor wires connected to the ESC (Electronic Speed Controller). This changes the phase sequence, effectively reversing the motor's rotation. Ensure the motor is not powered while making this adjustment to avoid damage. After swapping, test the motor to confirm the direction has been reversed.
For the Tamiya Hornet, a good choice would be a 540-sized brushed motor, such as the Tamiya Sport Tuned Motor or the Tamiya Super Stock RZ motor. These motors provide a balance of increased speed and torque compared to the stock motor while maintaining compatibility with the existing electronic speed control (ESC). Additionally, they offer a straightforward upgrade path without the complexity of going brushless. Always ensure that your gearing and battery setup can handle the increased performance.
Depends if it's brushless or brushed. Also on the battery used. With the Traxxas brushless system (VXL 3S ESC + motor) It can go up to 70mph. You can also buy different speed controls and motors to make it go even faster! Such as a Castle product, your reaching can be 90mph! Also depending on the battery you use. Brushed, such as the Traxxas XL5 and Titan 12T motor you are looking at 30-40mph depends on gearing and battery
Some of the easiest upgrades are thing such as a 6 cell upgrade, Lithium Ion, and Lithium Polymer. They increase voltage, hence speed. Another is upgrading the motor. A more powerful motor equals faster Xmods. After that, it's free game (i.e. brushless systems and hobbygrade ESC's) eat loads of pie
For RC planes, brushless motors typically classified as outrunner motors are preferred due to their high torque and efficiency at low speeds, which is ideal for flying. These motors provide a better power-to-weight ratio and are generally more reliable than their brushed counterparts. The size and KV rating of the motor should be matched to the plane's weight and intended flight style, ensuring optimal performance and battery life. Additionally, selecting a motor that fits well with the aircraft's electronic speed control (ESC) is crucial for smooth operation.
Below is the link of the motor i am thinking of purchasing (the 20500 rpm motor) https://m.ebay.in/itm?itemId=251927659821 Now i am anticipating a response that i should use brushless motors and esc's but the whole project is FLYING THE QUAD WiTH BRUSHED MOTORS....so i am asking whether this motor and propellors are enough to provide thrust that can lift my quad... If u derive the thrust with calculation pls show the method..
an electornic speed controller. It controls the speed of the motor using high power transistors.
Yes you can but if you want any faster you need to upgrade the esc.
Transmitter and receiver(4ch+), ESC, Motor, battery, servos. Thats about it for the electronics
yes, when in video 1 mode use remote: Press (esc)(esc)7714(ok) that will take care of it. or (esc)(esc)7197(ok) a master reset is (esc)(esc)19750601(ok) window main screen (esc)(esc)9702(ok) hope this helps!
