1/8 Sensored Brushless Motor 1717-1260KV (CSE060008200)

1/8-Scale Sensored Brushless Motor, 1717-1260KV — a high-torque, efficient powerplant built for 1/6- and 1/8-scale RC vehicles up to 20 pounds and capable of running on up to 8S LiPo packs. This motor delivers reliable torque and smooth, predictable throttle response, making it a strong upgrade for drivers seeking performance and durability in larger-scale rigs.

Designed around a four-pole, twelve-slot architecture, it combines high-temperature neodymium magnets with Kevlar wrap for rotor strength, oversized bearings, and vibration damping to maximize life and minimize heat. Low-resistance windings promote cooler operation and longer run times under demanding use. It supports SmartSense sensored startup with smooth starts and seamless transitions to sensorless drive, while sensor alignment ensures uniform timing and torque in both directions without manual timing adjustments. When paired with a compatible ESC, it unlocks advanced tuning options for precise throttle response and consistent performance across the speed range.
