Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo. Package includes 2100Kv 540L motor. 

Features: 

  • Word's First FOC brushless system for Rock Crawler.  Field-Oriented Control for Super Linearity & High Torque & Extreme Silence.
  • The chip-type magnetic encoder inside the motor guarantees consistency between three phases’ signals and always outputs the pure and precise signals indicating the rotor position.
  • The waterproof and dust-proof design (*IP67 standards) allows the AXE brushless power system to be used in all weather & track conditions without any issue of damage caused to the system from water or dust. Damage to the vehicle caused by water, mud, or conditions should be monitored closely when running in muddy, wet, or adverse conditions.
  • Intelligent torque output & speed closed-loop control for easy control, and consistent motor RPM under all loads.
  • The adjustable drag brake & drag brake rate control with the maximum drag brake of up to 200% (that’s near twice the drag brake of standard brushless power systems) can provide unprecedented parking capacity on slopes, with no jerky stops.
  • The innovative built-in Wireless connectivity. allows users to read ESC data or update ESC firmware via a smartphone (installed with the HW LINK app).
  • The motor with 4 poles & 12 magnets, featuring Hobbywing’s “staggered pole” patent has zero cogging effect & torque ripple. It can work smoothly at low speeds. This greatly improves the manoeuvrability of rock crawlers at low speeds.
  • The sensor harness, which features the plug-and-screw design, has a silicone O ring inside. The design & O ring not only provide a firm connection between motor and ESC but solve the “waterproof” challenge for sensor ports.
  • The advanced and secure electronic switch features a waterproof, dust-proof, and shock-resistant design.
  • Multiple protections: low-voltage cutoff, thermal, fail-safe (throttle signal loss), motor lock-up, and overcurrent.

NOTE: Xerun AXE series is a closed-system. Due to its advanced technology, HOBBYWING Xerun AXE ESC works exclusively with Xerun AXE brushless motor.

Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo w/2100kV Motor
They said it wouldn't fit but it does. This motor will fit into a Vanquish Phoenix however you will need to remove the transmission completely in order to change the motor. Great motor, FOC is awesome and having Bluetooth built in to program was easy and convenient.

Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo w/2100kV Motor
This combo is amazing. I'm running this it a Axial SCX III with the stock 14T pinion and 2S. This has amazing torque and precise control even at the slowest of speeds. The automatic rotor speed sensing gives this a really unique "feel" as you don't have to change throttle position as more or less power is needed. I love the phone app and bluetooth interface. Download the app, power up esc, tap to connect and you have full firmware update if needed, mine did and control of the adjustable paramenters. This thing got to be a beast on 3S, haven't tried yet. The 6A bec is a plus as well.

Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo w/2100kV Motor
?????????? Perfect upgrade to my TRX4. Even with my HEAVY mods with the extra amount of BRASS that has been added. This combo can push my rig with ease. Definitely would recommend this to anyone who wants to go places that you couldn’t go before with the stock motor and esc. ??????????

Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo w/2100kV Motor
Fantastic system. Put it in my SCX10II Deadbolt. Definitely suggest dropping pinion to a 12 or 11t. Has amazing low speed control and plenty of torque when needed. The app seems to work flawlessly as well. Can’t say enough good stuff about this system. Just buy it!

Hobbywing AXE 540L R2-FOC Waterproof Sensored Brushless Combo w/2100kV Motor
I don't think it gets much better than this. Super smooth, tons of power, amazing low end torque. Easy to setup, Bluetooth app makes it very easy to program, only flaw is the app will occasionally crash. But its awesome. Buy it.
