This powerful and efficient motor is designed to deliver exceptional speed, torque, and acceleration, making it the perfect choice for serious large-scale bashers who demand nothing but the best. Built with precision-machined components, high-strength magnets, and advanced winding techniques, this motor is engineered to deliver reliable and consistent performance in even the most challenging conditions.
What makes this motor different than the other 17 series motors? The 1721-1260kv is the "sane brother" to the 1721-2400kv. Where the 1721-2400kv is made for one thing, SPEED, the 1721-1260kv is built on the same platform, but at a more conventional Kv. It packs more punch and runs cooler than its baby brother the 1717-1260kv. This makes it the perfect moderate, yet powerful upgrade to the 1717 size motors that come stock in the Traxxas X- Maxx and Arrma 8s vehicles.
What ESC would you recommend? After our internal testing, we unanimously concluded that the 1721-1260Kv is an excellent companion for the Mamba XLX2 and such they have already packaged the two together for purchase as a combo.
Without a robust and reliable design, efficiency will only go so far. RC enthusiasts love pushing their equipment to the edge. The Castle engineers know this and spared no expense when developing a design that could hold up to the harsh conditions that the RC community will throw at it, resulting in a cooler running motor. In the end, the result is a motor with unmatched quality, performance, and reliability. Castle wouldn't put their name on anything less.
Features:
Running modes include SmartSense™ Sensored and an ultra-efficient Sensorless mode.
High-strength, high-temperature grade neodymium sintered magnets combined with High-strength Kevlar wrap ensures the integrity of the rotor is not compromised during harsh running conditions.
Oversized NMB bearings and vibration dampening system ensure the longest bearing life possible.
Our proprietary winding techniques allow us to produce a stator assembly that is the lowest possible resistance, resulting in a cooler running motor.
Updated modern and sleek design; looks as cool as it performs.
Our improved 4-pole 12-slot design boasts exceptional efficiency and produces less heat.
QUIETSENSE™ technology shields the sensors from magnetic field noise generated from the motor coils and keeps your motor and ESC in sync at all times. Use of a Flux Shield™ in conjunction with secondary Sense Magnets delivers even higher precision and more efficient startups.
Our optimized design eliminates the need for mechanical timing adjustments. Our sensor alignment method delivers uniform timing and torque in both directions, automatically.
