Marka Racing 1:28 Mini-Z V3 Sensored Brushless Motor 3500kv (MZR-3500-V3)
The new Marka Racing 3500KV sensored motor brings Italian engineering precision to 1/28th scale competition. Featuring an optimized can design with cooling vents positioned for maximum airflow, this motor is built to handle the demands of aggressive racing.
Performance Characteristics: Built with high mechanical advance timing, the 3500KV variant excels at delivering instant throttle response and impressive straight-line performance. Proper ESC configuration is essential to harness this motor's capabilities while protecting its internals.
Recommended Starting Points:
10T pinion / 53T spur configuration:
- Boost (Initial Timing): 5°
- Turbo (Max Timing): 10°
12T pinion / 53T spur configuration:
- Boost (Initial Timing): 10°
- Turbo (Max Timing): 10°
These settings provide a solid foundation - experimentation with gearing ratios and timing may be needed to match your track and driving preferences.
Critical Operating Guidelines:
- Actively monitor motor temperatures during runs - the high-advance design increases thermal load
-
Total combined timing must not exceed 20° (Boost + Turbo combined) to avoid performance degradation and potential motor failure
- Dial in your timing based on real-world temperature readings and track characteristics
This motor's aggressive timing architecture rewards drivers who can manage power delivery while maintaining thermal efficiency.
