Will SpeedPassion motor work on Hobbywing ESC

Hi All

I have a Hobbywing Xtreme stock 10.5 combo and am thinking about getting an 8.5 motor for it. Will the Speed Passion V3 8.5T work properly on it and all the timing tweaks that the ESC can do?

Sure.
A ESC doesn't know what brand motor you're running, and vice versa.

If you are running 2wd it should be ok down to 6.5/7.5T as the esc is rated at 60A. I run a Dualsky 60A esc with an 8.5t motor and am able to advance the timing without any overheating issues.

I run a tekin esc and a gm motor
Really dont worry as long as you wire it up correctly

Hi All

Thanks for the advice, it is for a 4WD (B44.1) and Hobbywing sell the ESC as a combo upto 8.5 so I would probably stick to that. The 10.5 with full tuning is pretty good on smaller tracks, but just thinking for bigger tracks and as I get better as I have seen a few SP8.5's up for sale here!

Most motor limits are 5.5t so effectively 6.5t to play safe
I like to buy a speedo with high motor limits
I have a tekin rs pro
Nosram istc version 2
And speed passion gt2.0 pro
I just my preference i like to no im never going to get to the speedos limit

I think the new hobbywing has the same software as the SP reventon if that helps?
