Who makes Velineon?
the velineon motors are 2 pole motors made by a company called Feigao, while Castle’s 2 pole motors are in house designs and the larger 1000-2650 sized motors are based on the helicopter 4 pole motors designed by Steve Neu from Neu motors.
What makes RC cars faster?
Brushless motors are rated for a lower number of turns than the standard brushed motors that most consumer-grade RC cars come with. This allows them to run much faster and more efficiently. Brushless motors may also be rated by “motor velocity constant” (Kv)—the higher the number, the more powerful the motor.
Do you have to break in brushless motors?
It’s not necessary to break in a motor. The reason you should break in a brushed motor is because you want the brushes to wear smoothly to the commutator so they provide the best contact which maximizes its efficiency and also helps prevent premature wear.
Do you have to break in a brushed RC motor?
Water is abrasive and accelerates the wear of the brushes and the comm surface, essentially taking life away from your new motor very quickly. Our motors don’t really require a break-in before use, but you can run them on low voltage (4-6V) for a minute or two both directions to seat the brushes.
What kind of motor does the velineon 3500 use?
The Velineon 3500 delivers consistent, high-power output, run after run. This super-flexible, high-current, low-resistance 12-gauge, wire acts like a series of giant pipes, flowing energy in and out of the VXL-3s electronic speed control and into the Velineon 3500 motor.
How does the velineon vxl-3s electronic speed control work?
The Velineon® VXL-3s forward/reverse electronic speed control simplifies brushless technology with easy, built-in profiles and intuitive programming. Tri-mode operation auto detects the motor type for brushed, sensored or sensorless brushless motors.
What kind of power system does Traxxas velineon have?
The Velineon power system is a direct fit for 1/10 scale Traxxas Bandit, Rustler, Stampede 2WD, Stampede 4×4, Slash 2WD, Slash 4×4, and 1/10 Rally vehicles. The key to the Velineon’s extreme power output is total system optimization.
