Large Scale Sensored Power

Experience unstoppable power with the Castle Creations 2535 Brushless Motor, engineered to deliver maximum torque, efficiency, and precision for heavy 1:5 and 1:4 scale RC vehicles.

About the 2535 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor


Unmatched Power And Torque

The Castle Creations 2535 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor is the most powerful motor in Castle’s 28+ year history, capable of handling 1:5 and 1:4 scale RC vehicles weighing up to 50 lbs. Designed for extreme performance, it produces the torque and RPM needed to push heavy vehicles like the Losi 5IVE-T, 5IVE-B, or DBXL-E, making it the perfect upgrade for gas-to-electric conversions and high-demand applications.

Advanced Efficiency And Cooling

Featuring a 4-pole, 12-slot V3 design, the 2535 motor runs cooler and more efficiently, reducing heat buildup and extending motor life. Its oversized NMB bearings, stainless steel sleeve rotor, and high-strength neodymium magnets ensure durability under harsh conditions, while the smooth can exterior and water-resistant design make water cooling simple. Proprietary Castle winding techniques and vibration dampening further enhance performance and reliability.

Smart Sensored Technology

Equipped with SmartSense™ and QuietSense™ technologies, the motor delivers buttery smooth sensored startups and transitions seamlessly to ultra-efficient sensorless operation. Electronic timing automatically optimizes torque and efficiency across all load points, providing precise throttle control, longer run times, and peak performance. When paired with a Castle sensored ESC, users gain access to advanced tuning through Castle Link for the ultimate power and control experience.

Luke H.Verified owneron Castle Creations 2535 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor (680KV)

If you have a 1/5 scale that can fit this thing then I highly recommend it. It is completely ridiculous. I have it in my Mega Kraton XL powered by a Mad Components Max 20 ESC. It makes the Max 4 that I swapped it with look weak. Worth every penny. Don't hesitate. Just buy one.

Trevin BakerVerified ownerMay 21, 2026on Castle Creations 2535 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor (680KV)

This 2535 motor is ridiculous. In my heavy 5iveB on 12s, this thing doesn’t even get hot with a 28t pinion. Just incredible power even on low settings on the cobra 5 ESC. This is the new king of 1/5 motors!
