Hello, I was just wondering if you have a sensored brushless speedo (XBR) and wanted to run a sensorless motor ( C4) would it work or would it blow something up? also, will a sensored motor work with a sensorless speedo if you removed the sensor wires? Thanks

Yes, I have a Castle Creations Sidewinder running a Orion 13.5 with no sensor wires. This combo was ok'd by Castle Rep.

Sensored motors will WORK on Sensorless ESC's, but not the other way around from what I understand
