    Team believer 36 motor choice for 6s

    I have a 36 inch team believer that I want to run reliably but over 60 mph on 6S. I have a castle
    200 amp esc for it but wondering what motor would be best for this?

    My SprintCat 60/80 (same bottom as the Team Believer) runs in the low 60s with a Neu 1527/1Y (1250 Kv) on 6S2P. I use a de-tongued x455 with a bit of cupping on the tips. It draws around 160-175 amps average and is a blast to race. I tried a 1500 Kv Neu but felt it was a bit too much for that hull.

      castle 1717 is an alternative if you want to go a bit cheaper. If you want to go even cheaper there is the sirius 1717 keith bradley sells they're like 150 bucks and get pretty good reviews.

      --The neu or castle would be my first choice though

        Don't cheap out the Neu will give you YEARS of troblefree running, mine has hundreds of 4 minute runs over the past 6 years with NO problems!!!!

            Yes just get the 1Y (1250KV) it is plenty of Kv and plenty of power no need for anything more you can get into the 70's if wanted and 60's is a piece of cake!!!

              What motor mount would be best in this team believer with the 1717.

                The Castle 1717 is hardly cheaping out. It will perform just as well, or better than the Neu 1527 1y. Yup, I said it.

                  What would be a good place to start?
