Description
You’re looking for a solution that offers more power, torque, and increased efficiency while eliminating overheating issues? You’ve come to the right place!
Tailor made for the Talaria Sting, the Talaria Sting Sotion Motor is a game changer. With an enlarged rotor, wider stator, and integrating IPM technology, this motor not only increases power but transforms your bike.
MTO Racing Edition
The Talaria Sting is designed for enduro riding. Unlike motocross, enduro requires performance in a variety of situations, from demanding climbs requiring considerable power to trial-like sections requiring instant availability of 100% torque, not to mention the need to maintain high speeds above 90 km/h (55 mp/h).
After pushing the Sotion with the Nucular as well as our own controller through rigorous tests, we fine-tuned it for optimal performance. In summary, the motor heats less at low speed, the torque distribution is more linear, while remaining just as powerful.
One of our pilots was experiencing constant overheating issues with the stock motor, regularly reaching 180°C for 16 kW. Thanks to the Sotion Motor for Talaria Sting, those worries are history. Now, Maxime effortlessly rides at 22 kW, with the motor barely breaking a sweat at 60°C.
Performance
Let’s talk numbers:
- A continuous power of 12 kW and a mind blowing peak power of 24 kW.
- Torque? You bet. How about 22 Nm, with adrenaline spiking peaks at 60?
- A rated speed of 5200 rpm capable of peaking at 10,000.
And if you’re thinking those numbers are just stats on paper, think again. Our co-founder Quentin put the Sotion through its paces in an enduro face-off with the Stark Varg, and the outcome? Well, let’s just say, it’s not what you’d expect.
So buckle up, because when you unleash the throttle, you’re in for a ride that doesn’t just break boundaries, it sets new ones!
Hall sensor vs. Encoder
When it comes to choosing between the Hall sensor and the Encoder, we’ll skip the overly technical stuff to keep things clear.
Simply put, the Hall sensor has the advantage of being supported by all controllers and being more reliable thanks to a simpler design.
On the paper it’s slightly less precise than an encoder, but let’s be realistic: encoders are often used in precision CNC machines, we don’t need nanometer precision here. All the more that most controllers switch to sensorless beyound 5-10km/h.
This is the very reason we chose Hall Sensor as a default. Now if Encoder is your cup of tea, we keep them readily available and switching is litteraly a 30sec task that could be done by a 6 year old.
Compatible controllers include: the Nucular, the Torp TC500 (from 2023), the TC 1000, the EBMX X9000 and the Far Driver.
