I would say less. 1/12 is light. My F1 is 1037g and it can barely handle torque. Trinity makes a really nice 12mm rotor (TEP1151). Gauss is generally just above 1700 and it is a 12mm. It is a high rpm rotor. Do you run 17.5T or 21.5T in your 1/12 (I am assuming it is a pan car)? If you run 17.5T, that rotor is fast: th-cam.com/video/55BUYrvD0Is/w-d-xo.html If you use 21.5T you will run out of timing before long before you hit 5A. Battery will last a long time, but the motor will not run at full potential, but might be worth trying. Trinity sells the cans and rotors separately now, which is awesome.
i dont know a whole lot about motor so this might not make any sense but if you swap a 12.5mm rotor for a 12mm rotor wouldnt there be to much of a gap between the 2 parts in the motor for it to work good?
It works perfectly fine. But let's assume the gauss is the same, due to the larger gap between the rotor and stator you will lose torque due to the magnetic field being weaker due to the diff. distance from the surface areas. Let's say the 12mm has a bit more gauss vs. the 12.5mm... they will have similar torques. Now the 12mm will have much higher Kv than a 12.5mm with similar gauss. It will depend on the application.
13:59 for the mod rotors every column has 12 except for guass which only has 11 items. how the hell are we suppose to know which rotor has which strength??? the mod rotor gauss numbers arent aligned with anything and with one of them missing the number its useless.
Ty for another great video definitely informative
My pleasure.
Great video and information my friend
Thank you. Greatly appreciated🤝.
@@telecomandorc 🙂👍
Really cool videos, and thank you for sharing a little knowledge.
I race 12th scale stock what makes a good motor here? More torque?

I will double check but I thought I typed the part number before the gauss values.
