3/1/2024 0 Comments No prep drag racingWith a Castle sensored ESC and sensored motor you will have the ULTIMATE POWER PLANT for your vehicle. This allows users to combine the best of both worlds in an unrivaled HYBRID between smooth sensored startups and high-efficiency sensorless drive. Electronic timing in SMARTSENSE™ will advance timing automatically for peak performance during all driving conditions. This sacrifices performance and efficiency during the other driving phases. Using mechanical timing adjustments alone, you can only target one driving condition, such as higher start power or higher top end speed. When running, a motor must transition between different load points and a different timing advance is required for optimal efficiency at all load points. Once the motor is turning, it seamlessly transitions to Castle’s ULTRA- EFFICIENT sensorless mode. SMARTSENSE™ uses the motors sensors to start the motor to provide smooth starts, excellent torque, and low-speed drivability. When paired with a Castle Creations sensor supported ESC, like the MAMBA MAX PRO, MAMBA X or COPPERHEAD, you can unlock advanced tuning capabilities that Castle Link provides specifically for sensored motors. ![]() Many customers have utilized our industry leading software functionality that Castle Link* offers. INTEGRATED SOPHISTICATIONĬastle engineers always add a little something extra in their designs that takes your performance to the next level. You will reap the benefits of longer run times on one battery and a cooler running motor that can be pushed harder. ![]() Development includes magnetic simulations, custom winding techniques, and rigorous, real-world testing of the final product. Our experienced, in-house engineering team, located in Olathe, Kansas, has spent countless hours simulating and developing the most efficient design. While using the highest quality components is important, design is equally important. Immense care is taken by our US design team during every step of the development process. Simulations are an important part of the design process ensuring optimal magnetic design. Pictured above is the Castle 1406 sensored motor magnetic flux simulation. Please refer to this document for running and maintaining motors in wet environments. Routine maintenance is recommended after running in wet conditions. Castle recommends applying dielectric grease to the outside of the sensor wire connections after installation of the wire. The sensor connections are not water resistant water can cause signal loss which could result in loss of sensored capabilities. Water Resistant Design: The sensor board is coated with silicone conformal coating to protect the sensors from moisture. Running modes: SmartSense™ Sensored and an ultra-efficient Sensorless mode. If you have any questions, just give us a call we have real people right here in the USA ready to help you get the most (as safely as possible) from your setup.Ĭompatible Electronic Speed Control (ESC) Improper setup or use of this product can result in catastrophic failures of the motor, ESC and/or batteries. Drag racing are the most advanced, aggressive and volatile applications in the RC car hobby. Every component in the configuration can be strained, weakened (or worse) without using extreme caution, observance of electric theory and advanced knowledge of all aspects of the RC hobby. ![]() WARNING: Drag run setups are inherently abusive and extremely hard on all electronic components. The 1/8th Mamba Monster X and 1/6th scale Mamba Monster X 8s are great pairings with this motor. Due to the high power nature of this motor it is highly recommended to use a 1/8th scale size ESC or larger. It uses a 5mm output shaft, 12AWG wires and 6.5mm bullets. We beefed up the design over a standard 14xx series motor to handle the high demands of drag racing. Your final drive ratio will need to be decreased (larger pinion/smaller spur) to get the RPMs up for top speed due to the size of the motor it will take just about any gearing and CHEAT timing you can throw at it. This results in a high horsepower, snappy, cool running motor. The 1412 is longer than most drag motors, which provides significantly more torque, acceleration, and cooler temps (think American Muscle) but still in a 540 diameter motor so it fits most vehicles. These motors rely on high RPM and low torque to push the car down the track (think turbo charged 4 cylinder). Most no prep motors are standard 540 size with very high kv (low turn). We went with a slightly different approach than current motors on the market. ![]() The 1412-6400kv motor is a very high torque, high wattage, mid-RPM motor designed for 2s no prep Street Eliminator racing. Ideal for 2s No Prep Street Eliminator vehicles on 2s such as Associated DR10, Losi 22S, and Traxxas Drag Slash
