FAQs

What scale vehicles is this motor designed for?

This Hobbywing Ezrun 5687 motor is designed for 1:5 and 1:6 scale RC vehicles.

What is the benefit of the built-in temperature sensor?

The built-in temperature sensor, when used with a compatible ESC like the Hobbywing MAX5, allows the ESC to monitor the motor's temperature and prevent overheating, thus prolonging the motor's lifespan and ensuring stable performance.

Can I use this motor with any ESC?

While the motor can function with most ESCs designed for its voltage and current rating, the integrated temperature sensor feature for overheating protection is only active when paired with a compatible Hobbywing ESC, such as the MAX5.

What does the 1100kv rating mean?

The 1100kv rating indicates the motor's speed under load, specifically 1100 revolutions per minute (RPM) per volt supplied. A higher KV generally means higher RPM and potentially higher top speed, while a lower KV usually offers more torque.

How does this motor handle full-torque start-ups?

The motor is engineered to handle instant full-torque start-ups, which is beneficial for applications like performing wheelies or achieving rapid acceleration from a standstill.

Is this motor suitable for general bashing or just racing?

This motor is suitable for both demanding racing and general bashing applications due to its robust construction, high torque, and stable power output, especially in 1:5 and 1:6 scale vehicles.

What maintenance does the motor require?

Regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris, checking wire connections for security and corrosion, and inspecting for any physical damage or bearing wear are recommended maintenance practices.

Troubleshooting

Motor does not spin or spins erratically.

Check the connections between the motor and ESC. Ensure the phase wires are correctly connected and secure. Verify the ESC is properly configured and has sufficient battery power.

Motor overheats quickly.

Ensure the motor is properly geared for the application. Check for any binding or resistance in the drivetrain. If using with the MAX5 ESC, confirm the temperature sensor is correctly connected and functioning. Reduce throttle input or consider a larger pinion gear if under load.

Reduced performance or power output.

Check battery voltage and charge level. Inspect motor wires and connections for any breaks or corrosion. Verify the ESC settings are appropriate for the motor and battery combination.

Unusual noises coming from the motor.

Inspect for debris inside the motor or between the rotor and stator. Check if the motor bearings are worn or damaged. Ensure the motor shaft is straight and the rotor is not rubbing against the motor can.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Delivers strong acceleration and high top speeds.
  • Enhanced motor longevity through temperature control when used with compatible ESCs.
  • Suitable for demanding driving styles like aggressive acceleration and off-road use.
  • Robust design for large-scale RC applications.
  • Provides stable and consistent power output.

Cons

  • Requires a compatible ESC (like Hobbywing MAX5) for full temperature protection features.
  • Higher KV rating may lead to faster battery drain if not managed properly.
  • Potentially overkill for lighter-duty or smaller-scale applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the motor is securely mounted to the vehicle's chassis. Connect the motor wires to the ESC, paying close attention to the correct phase order (typically wires 1, 2, and 3). Proper wiring is essential for correct motor rotation and function. For optimal performance and thermal protection, it is highly recommended to pair this motor with a Hobbywing MAX5 Electronic Speed Controller (ESC).

Compatibility: This motor is designed for 1:5 and 1:6 scale RC vehicles. Verify that your vehicle's motor mount and ESC can accommodate the physical size and power requirements of this motor.

Care: Keep the motor clean and free from excessive dirt and debris. Regularly inspect motor wires for damage. If using with the MAX5 ESC, ensure the temperature sensor is properly connected. Avoid running the motor in conditions that exceed its designed operating temperature. Periodically check for any signs of wear or damage to the motor can or rotor.
