How does the hybrid timing system enhance throttle control?
The Castle 1700kV motor with low-resistance stator and 10-horsepower potential features a hybrid timing system that combines sensored startup precision with ultra-efficient sensorless drive. This dual-mode operation ensures cog-free launches and dynamically adjusts timing as load conditions change, delivering peak torque and smoother throttle transitions throughout the full RPM range. For 1/5 scale builds, this translates into more predictable handling, faster acceleration, and reduced thermal stress during extended sessions.
Why is the Kevlar-wrapped rotor essential for high-load reliability?
The Castle M-CC060-0103-00 sensored inrunner motor with 8AWG wire and Kevlar-wrapped rotor is built to withstand the mechanical stress of high-RPM operation in heavy-duty platforms. The Kevlar wrap reinforces the rotor against centrifugal force, maintaining balance and preventing deformation during aggressive driving. This structural integrity is critical in vehicles weighing up to 30 lbs, where torque demands and rotational forces are extreme. Combined with oversized bearings and a vibration dampening system, the rotor design ensures smoother operation, reduced wear, and extended motor life.
How do oversized bearings improve durability and performance?
Oversized NMB bearings in the Castle M-CC060-0103-00 with oversized NMB bearings and vibration dampening minimize mechanical vibration and extend operational lifespan. These bearings absorb shock and reduce friction, protecting internal components from premature wear. In large-scale RC platforms, where weight and torque are substantial, vibration control is essential for maintaining stability and precision. The integrated dampening system further enhances this effect, ensuring that the motor remains quiet, smooth, and reliable even under high-RPM loads and rapid throttle transitions.
What makes the stator design thermally efficient?
Castle’s proprietary winding techniques in the Castle M-CC060-0103-00 4-pole motor with dual sensor ports and 8mm bullet connectors produce a stator assembly with the lowest possible resistance. This allows the motor to convert more electrical energy into usable torque while generating less heat. The result is a cooler running motor that supports longer runtimes and higher gear ratios without compromising performance. For users pushing 12S LiPo setups, this thermal efficiency is essential for maintaining consistent output and protecting internal components from overheating.
Is this motor compatible with popular 1/5 scale platforms?
Yes. The Castle 2028 motor for Losi 5IVE-T, DBXL-E, and gas-to-electric conversions is designed to fit seamlessly into large-scale chassis and deliver the torque required for heavy-duty applications. Its dual sensor ports offer flexible installation options, while the 8AWG wiring and 8mm bullet connectors ensure secure, high-current power delivery. Whether you're upgrading from a stock motor or converting a gas-powered rig, the Castle M-CC060-0103-00 motor provides the performance and reliability needed for extreme terrain and aggressive driving styles.

We want to make sure your delivery goes smoothly, so here are some important details about our service:
- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.
- Depending on what you choose at checkout, your order will usually be delivered either the next working day or within 2 working days. For next day delivery please place your order before 2:00pm. Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
- If a product is marked as "Dispatched within 3 working days" delivery usually takes around 3 to 5 working days from when your order is placed.
- For customers in Inverness and other parts of the Scottish Highlands deliveries can take up to 2 working days even if you select next day delivery as couriers do not currently offer a guaranteed next day service to those areas.
