Well, I have a micro t board and a Speedy 07.

Long story short, I want to use the Speedy 07 with the Micro T board. Will it work? The board is actually in a Xmod, not in an actual Micro T.

I know the Micro T has 2x2 FETs default. I have lithium, 7.2 volts and am going to use an 8 tooth pinion. I'm not going overboard with this.

how many turns is the speedy 07? I believe it should work. Just make sure the xmod is almost bind free, bearings and small gearing 8/25 or 8/24 is good.

I have no clue how many turns the motor is. But it will be pretty small gearing, 8 pinion. The car has no binds and of course I have bearings :) I figured it would work, but micro t boards are pricey (30$). Thanks for the reply though, you put me a little bit more at ease. Any 2nd thoughts?

Speedy 07 and even Speedy AWD are considred stock FET safe, so... do your homework dude. Atomic mods states these facts as does PN itself.

Its FET safe at low gearing. And this is a micro-t board, and I heard that the micro t FETs are weaker than say, xmod, FETs. I wanted a second opinion, not a smart remark. Thanks anyway.

The micro t has a 2x2 stack making it a stronger board than a stock xmod or a 2x1 stack. You should be fine.

Alright guys, thanks I'll give it a try. What made me worry was that goodfellaz over at XMF blew his fets using a high torque (higher turn, right?) motor for his drifter project.

Goodfellaz was also using a 180 sized motor, rather than a 130. It may have had a lower wind count than the Speedy 07 but a higher amount of torque due to the increased size in armature length and magnet length.

Cheers,
Kyle.
