they cant stop these motors i love them i run a couple of these in 1/8th buggys with heat sinks pulling 120 amp (gets very hot) when doing wheelys and 80 amps when at full wot. i know there only rated for 55 amp but these seem to survive what ever i put them throught

I know I love them two, And just like everything else that hobbyking has that is a great product once they hit back order they will sit like that for a few months then POW they disappear from the website. There were some battery balancers and 3 bladed propellers that they did that to that I loved. Among other stuff.

tell me about it, i was waiting for 9 months for hobbyking to restock the turnigy 9x controller finally got it and they always seem to get rid of the best stuff, like the old turnigy aerodrive inrunner motors. they are indestructable. cheers for the credit

i run this on 4s. its fine but make sure to use a heatsink on the motor and i would say go for 120amp esc mine pulls just over 80amps at full throttle and spike to 110amp on hard pull off.

 gouldie 406 points

you can convert any boat from brushed to brushless. you just put the motor in (check mount holes or drill new holes) and get suitable coupling to connect motor to shaft. put in correct size esc and lipos and then do some testing to find correct size prop. this motor is a good motor on 4s with water cooling jacket a 100 amp watercooled esc then tune to find correct prop and your boat will easy be twice the speed of the brushed setup

heres a link to a youtube video of you boat converted to brushless just remove space from link http: //www. youtube. com/ watch?v =Wrj4f0RhN98 first he runs it on 2s and then 3s the 3s set up would run similart to this motor on 4s

I do not want it to be very fast, I just replace by a more reliable engine.

 gouldie 406 points

yeah it will work but it wont be very quick. this motor is suited to 4s lipo really if you wont to run 2 cell set up then you really wont a motor around 3800kv to 4800kv

 Semut 23 points

yes...

 gouldie 406 points

hey, i dont have any personnel experience with your truggy but i have two 1/8th buggys running this motor. they both do about 45mph on 4s and they are geared low so they pop wheelies and stay cool even with out no heatsinks. this motor in a 1/10th will be belistic, you will be popping wheelies all the time. if you do run 4s cell you will wont a bigger esc, my motor spikes at 84amps under hard excelleration.

but the esc shows it can handle 4s

Actually having a sparrowhawk I can tell you no. The motor is long and fat to fit, that and it being such a 2200kv your sparrowhawk will be slow, that and the face you won't be able to adjust the motor on the motor mount since the motor will be too big.

 zueslilbuddy 5 points

That is the motor you want it will be the long which is the middle motor in the picture. Just realize this motor is not as big ad the Castle creations or trx 2200kv motor but will make a maxx scoot rite along on 4s.

yep two pole

 Can 6 points

it is 2 pole motor and it have a very good tork and speed

 bongsky007 93 points

not 2 pole its a 4 pole motor.

 Soulslotter 3 points

Hello bongsky007,why do you think it is a 4 pole motor. Do you open one?

 Pavel 9 points

Yes! I use a buggy (see al***). I ride a 4S Lipo, 100 Amp ESC

 extremflyer 2 points

Thanks for your answer. But can I run it on 6s?

 Pavel 9 points

Max Voltage 22V. Obtained 5S max. But I'm missing 4S =)

 kaime 12 points

6s it's the limit of the engine because the bearings can handle only 50000 rpm and with 6s the engine would be at 48840 rpm. So you can run it but care with temps and the bearings can last less than with a 4s configuration.

 suzzanne 2 points

They are made by a company called keda, and i beleive the max voltage to be around 4s, slo 14.4v.
hope this helps.

 djleppe 5 points

Normally I use them with 4S lipos.6S may be OK BUT it's not sugestd for long run times. People here on hobbyking.com used them in 5S BUT for short run times,as you can see on comments posted down in the page where it's listed. Producer is unknown,nowadays,BUT sems to be named also as 'Keda' Motors

 Hardride 6 points

This is a great motor for the price, 2200 KV and a 22 volts max, if you are planning of running it with 6S make sure you use the 180 ESC otherwise if your running 4S then a 120 ESC will do just fine.

 Alessandro 8 points

Usually if you blew the welds due the high temperature, you probably demagnetized the battery. I would just get a new motor.

 waterlogged 2844 points

I'll remember that. Next time I blow a motor I'll have to remagetize my battery. What do you use.? The HK demagnetizer/magnetizer isn't big enough

4 mm bullet

 Artur 15 points

They have 4mm bullet connectors

 Alessandro 8 points

5mm but i suggest changing them out to the castle 6.5 bullets

 viper_4x4 23 points

You will need to try not exceed 40000rpm. This way, and for this motor, you will use 5s max.

 Wilfried 9 points

Im recommand 4S for this !

 Mustang Sally 1087 points

What's so confusing? You will get the one with the specs you have ordered:
Front mount holes are 25mm apart.
Dimensions: 36~60mm
Shaft size: 5mm
Weight: 260g

Spec.
Kv: 2200rpm/V
Idle Current: 2.6A
Resistance: .0146
Max Amp: 55A

"KD36-60-11'L' 2200kv Brushless Inrunner"

...and have you noticed the "L" in the partnumber? Look at the othere ones, they have "S" and "XL" too.

so no, unfortunately you will only get 1 motor for $26.95 :(

 Alessandro 8 points

depends on the application.

2 pole inrunner.

 viper_4x4 23 points

Better option is use this motor <=40000rpm. If you us 6s you will have 48840rpm, a lot of rpm for this motor.

 Deryn 101 points

Depends on the kv rating of the individual motors.
Under 40,000 rpm will be most efficient.
Under 50,000 rpm should still be fine.
Over 50,000 rpm you take your chances.

no more 18 Volts

Can I run this motor with my HSP 70am esc and 2s 5000mah lipo ?

 Alessandro 8 points

ive ran it safely on 4s (14.8v)
