Team Orion Vortex Experience & Micro BL

Team Orion Vortex Experience & Micro BL

We already showed you the first pic of the production version of the Vortex Race BL motor last week and now we have some more first images from Team Orion. Pictured above is the final production version of the Vortex Experience Touring Combo, developed for those who are not yet wanting to invest in race or sensored systems but would still like race winning performance. Supplied with a sensorless speed controller, the motor features a centre barrel of real carbon fibre to create a tuned magnetic field, making the Experience the optimum solution for those with brushless RTR’s that wish to take it to the next level. Also new is the Vortex Micro 1/18 BL motor, for 1/18th scale vehicles to achieve new levels of tuning and performance that their 1/10th big brothers currently have.

Novak HV BL Motor with 5mm Shaft

Novak HV BL Motor with 5mm Shaft

Novak have released some additions to their range of HV High Voltage brushless motors, with the introduction of these 5mm shaft versions. These 550-size sensored brushless motors are available in four motor winds 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 and 7.5, and include a Sintered rotor with a rugged 5mm output shaft. The HV Series is ideal for monster trucks, converted electric 1/8-scale vehicles and vehicles requiring massive power output. Additionally, the motors are sensor-based, so they always know the position of the rotor, which provides excellent starting torque and continuous synchronization for smooth, controlled low-speed driveability and consistent brakes. The HV-Series of motors also features a shielded sensor cable with sheathed sensor wires and a completely rebuildable design.

Team Orion Vortex Race BL motor

Team Orion Vortex Race BL motor

Team Orion have announced the upcoming release of their Vortex Race Brushless motor, the result of 24 months of work by Oscar Jansen to create the ultimate brushless motor. The Vortex Race motors are the company’s top of the line BL competition motors and as such are designed to be powerful and highly efficient. Brushless technology increases power output and efficiency to push vehicles to faster speeds with increased run times and with no brushes, springs, or commutators to maintain, drivers can spend more time improving their driving skills and car set-ups rather than performing motor rebuilds. Its versatile design allows it to be used with today’s leading sensored and sensorless brushless ESCs. Available in 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 10.5 and 13.5, they will hit the shops worldwide in the next 10 days.
