I think this is one of your best product reviews for people on a budget and want to improve their crawler. Hobbywing seems to be ahead of the competition. Great video.
I have the 1200kv in a capra based lcg with all stock capra gearing. 18t is about perfect, plenty of speed and punch. For 70$ it's a bargain, just use one of your 1080 program cards to program it. Use the manual as the settings on the card are different. For the same performance as 1800kv just up your pinion 1.5 times (12×1.5=18).
Thanks for the great video's. You keep it real. Down to earth. Explaining all things. You have helped in making those tough decisions. I like that you use TRX-4 to demo.
Sadly i have to say i had problems with the SE.The card nor the box over the usb tool would read or even programm the SE. The motor ran and worked in the car but without programming not useable. It has been send back to the dealer.
I have a hobby wing SE on my rig AR44’s Stealth X with stock spur and a 12 t pinion on 3s even went down to 2s and it’s still to fast to crawl oh and a spektrum transmitter what can I do to slow down.
Thanks for the ideas sir. We bought a 1800kv Fusion SE and put it in my sons Stampede along with hub extensions, Trok SS tires on bead locks and it such a smooth crawled down low in 2S 2000mah. With a 3x 5000 it runs for almost 2 hours, and will back flip however the top speed is very tame still. Excellent budget crawler upgrade for any 4x4 chassis.
Nice video broo, thanks... May i knows about this fusion se and fusion pro... Is it able/strong enough playing in soft/hard mud track?? Dig in full body mudding?? And is it ok, with 3S 100c battery?? Thx brother
If you put the SE 1800kv in something like the new Phoenix RTR would you be able to add the dig and overdrive servos or lights? I’m guessing this would not work in that application.
I have it in my Phoenix rtr. You can certainly put your dig and OD in regardless of the motor. I had to trim ever so slightly a top link mount to get it in, but it was totally worth it. Easy to do.
What does everyone think about putting the 1800kv in a brass brick TRX4 with the 2spd? I don't use 2nd gear a lot so I think I can afford to lose a couple mph, but it is nice to have. I just don't know if it would be too slow or overworked in a truck that weighs probably 13lbs if I upped the pinion a little from the 11T.
I just added this motor to an RGT 86190, heavy like the TRX4 with 2 speeds, the stock motor was too fast. Rig's 9.5 lbs, and the motor doesn't get hot at all, did a few tests! Not sure why I spent 300AUD on the Fusion Pro for my Capra! Its basically the same.
Hobbywing are going to be knocking it out the park with these at that price. I have quite a few of the “full fat” fusions and they really are excellent.
I am getting a TF2 midnight edition in the mail any day now and which one of the 2n1 do you think would be perfect for it? 3s lipo, balance for trailing and crawling.
I have the RC4WD Marlan Crawler TF2. I'm hoping you are enjoying your truck. My self in retrospect I'm not sure if it was a good choice. But it is beautiful and very photogenic. Good luck with yours.

I have the 1800SE in my Sport and love it. Also adding it to another truck I'm building.
Love that it really crawls at low sped and very controlled

I did my first run on mine today. Believe the hype. Awesom low speed control. I'll get more. Mines the 1800kv.
I love my trx 6, it has the FOC, it's a beast.
Sadly i have to say i had problems with the SE.The card nor the box over the usb tool would read or even programm the SE. The motor ran and worked in the car but without programming not useable. It has been send back to the dealer.
Outstanding review!
Thank you kindly!
Would the 1800kv version be good for the rc4wd gelande 2?
Would 2 of these make a clodbuster work good
You have me thinking now

Why did you put it in a stampede? It is made for crawlers
@@brsrc759 To make the stampede crawl. Common sense
Nice video broo, thanks...
May i knows about this fusion se and fusion pro...
Is it able/strong enough playing in soft/hard mud track??
Dig in full body mudding??
And is it ok, with 3S 100c battery??
Thx brother
What 3s battery are you using? I like this setup. I just got an Enduro se, and want to get it right without spending a lot
If you were hiking a trail would the lack of top speed be annoying?
Were do you run at. Looks like a great place. I am in San Mateo County.
Greta video!
Where is this location
I work in ss Jose sometimes and would love a good place to crawl on my down time
Love the videos❤🎉🎉

Hi! Very Naice Review! The Fusion Pro 2300KV is a direct fit in a Traxxas TRX6???
Yes, that is a direct fit!
@@RCReviewChannel Hi! Thks for the Help! Cheers 🐼✌️
What size battery is good to use for 1/12mn 128 crawler with 70dollar motor.
looks awesome but doesn't seem like enough wheel speed for me, il just have to get the fusion pro eventually.
It is not fast, that’s for sure. I’ll experiment with a much bigger pinion gear.
@@RCReviewChannel Why not just go 1800kv? Is the 1200kv better for low speed controllability?
Does anyone know if you can purchase the sensors alone for the hobbywing axe motors?

I don't forsee you having any issues with it
@@karansahni2066 thank you.. The info I was
looking for.. same rgt and two other heavier rigs👌👌👌,
Hobbywing are going to be knocking it out the park with these at that price. I have quite a few of the “full fat” fusions and they really are excellent.
Sorry I forgot, brilliant video!
What is the battery adapter the the hobbywing fusion se called? Im trying to find that adapter for the traxxas trx4 batteries.
XT60 connector

@@vwagon5566Rc4wd is great for scale runs. And not too much more. Enjoying my trx 4 more than i ever enjoyed my tf2
What radio are you using?
Great review.!
Unfortunately they're always out of stock here in the UK... I'll just have to pre-order one.!
Thanks Francis.!
Stay safe out there mate & best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ♥ 📻 🎮 🔋 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚔 🚕 🚖 🚗 🚘 🚙 🚚 🚛 🚜 🏎️ 🏍️ 🚤 🛥️ ✈️ 🛩️ 🚁.!
AliExpress here, almost 1 month delivery time, got 1800 & 1200 both of which are both back ordered here in the U.S also
are these the old model FOC reskined?
That is a running theory, suggested by some
@@RCReviewChannel Well I will bet you have the old model around...comparison?
I had the 1800....sold it with the truck
new truck fusion pro...
Is there a way to turn off the FOC function? I don't like it, it keeps breaking stuff
Whats the stock bec on these will it do 7.4 and not fry the stock traxxas servos.
Will this fit in the VS4-10?
Yes, there is a plastic nub (non-structural) that needs to be trimmed. 2 minute job with Dremel.
@@RCReviewChannel appreciate it. Too bad no one has one in stock.
Where does this guy go to use his crawlers?
Backyard? Prob not lol
I dunno still doesn’t sway me from my 1080wp and 550 can on 3s
Can't match the FOC with 1080
Here in the UK you can't find one for that price if they even have one can expect to pay over a $100 for the 1200kv version. 😡
Isn't this just the V1 fusion repackaged?
When you say cheap in your reviews it spoils the idea of purchase. More like inexpensive but not cheap ever lol 😮
Compared to other quality esc motor combos out there it is cheap, it’s all relative, the hobby isn’t “cheap” lol
God damn it, I was watching ODS do stupid shit with RC cars and now it’s popping up in my feed……
The 1200 SE will be going in my RYFT...
I’m first!!!!!!!🎉
how do you think the 1200 would do in a capra fran ?.... seeing how its geared so high
