I am building a Trail King very soon and it’s going to be a trail truck/tow rig/very light crawling rig. I need a motor/ESC setup that has enough speed for trail riding(10+mph), but also have enough torque to be able to pull a truck on a trailer. I am trying to decide between brushless or brushed. Obviously for a brushed setup I would have to play with gearing to be able to hit those kinds of speeds.
I am looking at kv ratings that high because my batteries are 2S. I’m not really looking at any of the Hobbywing brushless setups due to having to stay with Hobbywing motors.
These are the setups I’ve been looking at:
Brushless:
Mamba X 3800kv Combo
Puller Pro 4100kv with Mamba X
TrailMaster Pro 4500kv with Mamba X
Brushed:
Crawlmaster 8T with 1080
TrailMaster 12T with 1080
Any and all advice/tips are welcome as I am new to the brushless scene.
