Nice speed. Can you please recommend a Castle motor/ESC for Limitless v2 for track use (not straight line runs)?

[@InnovationRC]

I'd go with a 1650kv or the newer 1721 1260kv motor. With a Mamba Monster X8s. Run it on 4s and gear up to your desired speed!

I had similar cut outs on my XLX2. Replaced it with a new one, same gearing, and hit a PB of 145mph on the next 8S pass. Sent the bad one back for warranty.

[@masonkaye5]

It is not an actual issue with the esc, it is the motor pulling too many amps from the esc, if your car was doing that before it was way overgeared unless you are running over the high 150's.

[@jondilly1974]

@@masonkaye5 all I swapped was the XLX2 for a brand new one, same gearing, and picked up 10mph and no cut off. The old one was also showing very strange high RPMs. New one is spot on for a speed calc.

[@masonkaye5]

@@jondilly1974 strange, the usual sign of an xlx2 going out is cogging, I have had the best luck with the older xlx 2's not going out, I have only had an xlx fire and an xlx2 that caught fire in the last month that was produced two months ago.

What brand of pinion gear are you using? With the stock motor mount I have to flip the pinion around the other way and that doesn't excite me with how close the grub screws are to the end of the motor shaft. I'm using a Saga customs pinion. Thanks

Yea lol… it always happens like That lol… got my XLX2 1100 in for my 8s EXB while worrying once I have it, something better will come out but this is for the 30 lbs truck so it’ll be hard to top the 1100 combo. Speed runs is another breed where your constantly replacing parts and testing what’s better. Some setups are written in stone while others will NEVER be perfected bcs technology is ALWAYS on the rise.

Hey IRC, do you remember what gearing you ran here? I know watching again.

[@josephmorelli3191]

I came upon your video while looking into the CASTLE 1721-2400Kv motor. I am hardly an expert at RC builds to say the least, but I love doing it. Certainly not a very good RC driver either. I’ve got a few nice builds behind me, a very nice XO1, a fun TALION & my favorite, a LIMITLESS GT using the BITTYDESIGN SEVEN65 body. The LIMITLESS is barely behind me and the new CASTLE 1721 has captured my interest. I’ve only gotten as far as seeing the 101.2 mm motor will not fit in the factory motor position of a LIMITLESS roller. Even if I wanted to rework my XO1, it wouldn’t fit in there either. I realize you guys deal with this issue in most if not all you speed builds. As many videos I’ve watched where the chassis of the RC obviously had to be modified to fit the motor, none of them promoted any understanding to me of how it is accomplished. Are there any videos you could suggest to me that will get me going? Thanks!

What is the kv limit of a castle creations mamba xlx 2 esc. Because I try to find a combo with the 1721 2400kv motor but all I can find is the 800kv and the 1100kv and with the monster mamba the highest I can find is 1650kv

[@MatrixRC]

Very good runs. Just shows how linear your throttle has to be and due mainly to road distance. What if they were to us a 1860kv motor would it work then?

[@InnovationRC]

Thank you you! I've been practicing my trigger pull for awhile now lol 1800* kv is still an ok kv for speed

[@AutoBodyEverything]

Innovation!!…. How many ppl have asked you about how you tune your calibrations on castle link? Where’s your start percentage? Do you use drag brake? Are you using a custom throttle curve? Do you also use your transmitter calibrations to dial the cars performance in? I’m currently building a second car but with my first XLX2 combo and I haven’t had any hands on yet bcs it’s a lot of work and research.

Very Interesting? Nice passes as well🏎💨Gonna wait to see where this motor goes? Maybe it's gonna be a "1 and we're done" type motor? As where i can pull 5-6 passes of 130 or better with the 1717 1650kv and pull her in around 160°

[@InnovationRC]

This is definitely a one and done motor. Unless geared for less speed and temps are ok

[@masonkaye5]

The temps on any motor don't really get too bad until you are at the limit of the motor, if you were doing 130's with the 1721 it would be fine for at least a few passes, but like the 162 I did (on a different motor) was over 170 degrees on the outside of the can.

@@bigboytoyzrc9258 Gearing determines temperature and a bigger can would reduce heat, but at say 162 mph my very large can motor is at 170 external temperature and I know that the 1721 would be cooler, but that would be mainly due to it being sensored, with it being sensored it is going to run much cooler.

QUESTION: motors like.. CC 1728/2400kv TP 4070cm 2200kv Either motor you SHOULD be able to punch it full throttle from a dead stop with the “correct” low gearing, right?.. If the amp rating on a motor is 4000 constant and 8000 max, and it’s geared to do 100mph on the ground (145 on calculator) then what kind of amps might you see if you PUNCH it from a dead stop? With tire prep or not,.. Theoretical set up, Xlx2-CC 1728/2400kv 8s cnhl gear ratio 46s 26p.. Or can you give a scenario of your own just for a general idea? Apart from gearing which has many variables… How do people know what is the highest and or largest KV motor you can buy and be able to blast it from a dead stop?
