Castle 1512 Sensored Motor - 1800Kv (MOD 4mm Bullets / 12AWG Wire)
You might be familiar with the brute 1/8 scale version of the 1512-1800Kv (10AWG wire and 6.5mm bullets) that has overpowered buggies, truggies, on-road vehicles for years. Now we are offering our eBuggy version (paired with Mamba X 1/10 scale ESC, click here for details), tailored with pre-soldered 4mm bullet connections and 12AWG wire!WHY SENSORED?
Drivers in all applications demand clean starts when coming off the line. Crawler fans require high-precision low speed control and torque for climbing, racers need precision and predictability, and dragsters don’t have a millisecond to spare. To achieve all of these performance demands and more, we have integrated rotor position sensor technology with our improved high power and high efficiency motor design. Through the use of our sensors, the position of the rotor is always known by the ESC. This eliminates the possibility of encountering cogging or inconsistency during startup. Users will experience PRECISE throttle control and BUTTERY SMOOTH starts plus the RAW POWER and LONGER RUN TIMES that our highly efficient motors produce.

Castle recommended applying dielectric grease to the outside of the sensor wire connections after installation of the wire. Routine maintenance is recommended after running in wet conditions. Please refer to this document for running and maintaining motors in wet environments.
