Title: 6wd Brushless motors, 7"-10" tires
Post by: Mackattack on April 02, 2013, 03:59:51 PM
Hey all,
This is a new hobby for me, sort 'of... I'm designing something like the "Wild Thumper" by Dagu. However, larger, like with 7" to 10" tires.

Where can I find brushless motors with VERY GOOD gear heads?

10 inch tires (to me) screams...wheelchair motors. They aren't brushless, though. But torque enough to pull anything out of your butt  ;D

I really don't want brushes, I know it'd be cheaper, but I'm looking a little higher end.
