This review is from: 17X2, 540 Fireball Motor (Toy)
I bough this as a quick, cheap upgrade in my Helion Dominus 4x4. The ESC is good to 15T motors. I broke in the motor with the water break in and the motor was filthy, totally nasty. The motor ran, when properly geared down to a 12T pinion, for about 4 minutes before literally melting. While it was running the truck was considerably faster. The ESC caught on fire in the truck and partially melted the body on my truck. I replaced the ESC with a Duratrax 12T modified ESC and tried a new one, it worked for about 6 minutes and the motor again failed. Do not buy this motor.
