Hernias are nasty, makes me think of that sequence at the end of Alien: resurrection when the 'newborn' gets sucked out the window...

Get well soon dude. :yes:

Thanks guys for all the support!

I'm feeling better now, and I'm reviewing the applications as I type this. I should be notifying and shipping betas over the next few days.

Patrick, I am a little slow to post this so....my hernia is causing me some serious pain at times and I know that sooner than later I will need surgery...I hope you mend quickly!

same here. i had a hernia when i was younger and now my belly button hurts occasionally.

Hope all is well Patrick...haven't seen you on here in a few days.

Hmmm - Do you suppose the 1520 would have enough ooomph to power a Baja 5b? It would certainly seem to be overkill in a 1/8 monster truck but it's got me thinking.... I would certainly do a build up and take these guys on if you think it could handle it.

Hope everything is alright patrick, have not herd from you in days. Hope your feeling better

Yes Patrick I too hope your feeling better! But I'd also like to know if I'm going to be one of the lucky ones and if I'm not then who is.

I wouldn't use anything smaller than a 1527, personally. Dual 2200s or 1800s would work fairly well IMO (as long as you stop running instantly if something isn't right, could burn up a ESC or motor if the other shuts down).

If 25-30 mph satisfies you then a 1520 should be fine.

Did we run you off Patrick?

Testing Equipment ready Captain! :yes:

Captain?

Do am take bribes?... :whistle:

Can you throw us a bone here Patrick? A little update of some sort?

Sorry guys -- I know many of you are still waiting. I've got a few of them out, but the majority are still waiting for some preliminary results before I send out the rest of 'em.

Thanx for being patient!

I read just now ... late ..
if there is still place and you need a tester Italian .....

I have a truggy kyosho st-rr, esc MMM data logger eagle-three with two temperature sensors and one for detecting the number of turns for brushless motors.
lap with 6sA123

Patrick if you think there is still a chance tell me where I can send you the mail with all my data.

Am I getting one? :smile:

Do you have any results trickling in yet? :sarcastic:

I got a few, and I am waiting for a warmer day to really put them to the test. My 2200 hardly gets warm in the emaxx, so I need taller gearing or a heavier vehicle. I was thinking a Flux is my only easy choice right now that can handle the power, but the LHS is waiting for them. I do have an ebike tranny being made as well, and it will bolt up. The low voltage setup may not be ideal for an ebike, but it will be a great exercise in 25v lightweight power systems.

I think a proper comparison of the 1515 1y and the longer 1518 1Y will take either nuts gearing or a lot of weight.

Hence why I would have liked to test one... :mdr: :whistle:

Flux on the way. Damn you castle!!

Hello,
I'm C/C reseller for France and Europe and I would be happy to try this new motor, I have sent an e mail, I try ...
Thanks.

Any updates? Or reviews/pictures from members who already got one?

I'll be purchasing one of these when they are ready for purchase. Any updates? Hows the tesing going?

Anybody?

I am sure they have all been sworn to secrecy.

I don't think so..:neutral:

nothing really to report yet. They look identical to the Castle 1515, but with a 1518 and 1520 stack length.

Oh there are ways to load a motor alright. :rules:

In the process of upgrading my E Revo's drivetrain. Traxxas cvd's are going to work with Ofna Mutilator inboard cups using RCM's Hybrid Diffs.

I'm still working on nailing down cvd's for the center drives, but the end result should be a drivetrain capable of warp 9! :yes:

I wonder where I can get a motor capable of slinging the tires off the rims? :whistle:

Don't fool yourself - get a stack of the traxxas CVD shafts - Even my neu 1515 2.5d on 6s2p A123 breaks the pins after a while....


:)

It breaks the pins on the cvd's?

Are you familiar with the cups I mentioned? It looks like a beefier choice to the output shafts that come stock on the RCM diffs.

I'm going to try to retain the inside cvd boot and run some heavy grease inside.

I think mike had a bad batch of outputs he send me some new hardened ones and they are holding up great with no issues at all.

And yes I can torque off the thick pin that slots into the diff output... :)

get a drill bit of same size and cut it to the right length. i find these make the be
 

get a drill bit of same size and cut it to the right length. i find these make the best pins.

Is there any speculation as to when these will see production? I'm planning on a project in June and this motor is what it needs.:yes:

+1

I need to replace the Hacker in my custom Savage before summer (and 120 deg temps)!

Any news? As soon as these hit the shelves I'm buying the MMM combo for my Truggy on 6s. I'm dyin' here!

Come on, throw us a frickin' bone here... lol
Should have sent me one I could have put it through its paces by now.:na:

Anybody know anything?

Hello,
I sent an e mail but I had no reply :(.

Any testing results yet?
