    Post TP motor vented or closed end bell

    Hey all, I’m looking to buy a Tp motor for my 36 inch mono, was wondering if I should buy a vented or closed end bell motor?
    Tp 4060 1750kv

    Some output with those who are running Tp motors would be greatly appreciated

    Closed is intended to keep dirt out for surface use. I prefer the open end caps for use in boats to allow better air circulation and ease of maintenance if/when the motor gets wet. The open style is the most common in boats.

    That makes sense for ease of maintenance.

    Closed motors are made for cars.
