Reedy Sonic 900/900XL 1:8 Competition Motors

Reedy has released an all-new range of Sonic 900 and 900XL Competition motors for 1:8 eBuggy and eTruggy. Several months of development by engineering staff and factory team drivers has resulted in motors that deliver performance that far exceeds what is required at the highest level of competition. The Sonic 900, available in both 1900kV and 2100kV versions, is intended for use in 1:8 eBuggy classes. Each version comes with a unique rotor which is interchangeable between both and sold separately to fine tune power output and delivery for specific track conditions and driver preference. The Sonic 900XL features a longer, higher torque stator for heavier 1:8 eTruggy use. However, the 900 and 900XL are interchangeable between chassis types to create a wide range of performance options suitable for a wide variety of track conditions. The motors feature a precision CNC-machined case with adjustable timing while an integrated heat sink lowers operating temperatures, which results in less fade over the course of a race, longer run times, and increased motor life. Sensored operation results in a smooth and controllable power band while a powerful 4-pole rotor is supported by precision ball bearings for reliability.

Developed and tested with real racers, the Collector data logging system is a handy tool for collecting and analysing data and that way improving your track performance.

The Collector Mini is like what is used in full-scale racing but considers the specific needs of RC car racing. System is designed to be future proof and maximise the compatibility with rule books. Collector Mini allows users to utilise the measured data to analyse the driving techniques or gain more understanding about car behaviour. As an example, optimise your final drive ratio, measure your air time in offroad or compare data from different drivers to understand where the time difference is coming.
