Woah a 700XXL! That's a shaft-snapper for sure. :lol:

Based on the price alone I would put them between Feigao and Align quality wise. Would you like to be the guinea pig on this one, Bondo?

they look like Neu 1521 and 1527 knock-offs....

YUP, A BIG Guinea Pig.
I dont have miuch faith in the qaulity but again for the price it's certainly worth a risk I reckon ? I ben needing another 1527 w/a lower KV but no one has stepped up to the plate and can't buy from NEU on such short notice. So I guess my 1527 1.5D will go in my TRX Titan boat when it arrives ????

Once my check hits my account tonight I'll be ordering the 700-83 in 975KV for my 1/5 Savage build. Still not for sure what Controller I'm using but I'm planning on 8s and 10s for sure !
I'm making my own chassis (started today)and will have plenty of room for Lipos up front and will make my own center shafts.

Still waiting on my F#*kin' Dirt Oval car from Horizon so I figured might as well to working on sumthin' else ?

This may be a stupid question ?

Will MIKES 1/5 scale Mod-1.5 pinions work with Mod-1 spurs without making a bunch of noise and mesh decently ?
Anybody know ???????
I ask because I want the larger 98mm motor but it's availibe in 8mm shaft only, SHIZ !

Mod 1.5 has a much larger tooth than Mod 1. I don't think it will mesh at all. That's like trying to mesh 32P to 48P.

Mod1 and 32 pitch kind work together but make a racket, thought I might get lucky since the spur is so thin ?

Well 32P is technically Mod 0.8. I wouldn't risk it with the power you'll be putting down through that motor.

Yeah I know, just hopeing for a easy way out. Aint gonna happen, such as my luck.:whistle:

maybe you could grind the shaft down to 5mm yourself. i have done it with a 6mm KB motor shaft and if i can do it, you can do it. all i used was a dremel against the shaft while it was spinning.

I have a brand new 1521 1.5y (1050kv) w/5mm shaft if you're interested in trying something a little smaller than the 1527 (cheaper than OSE's price). I was going to try it in my build but went with the 1527 instead.

I tried that when I got my 1717, I chucked the rotor in a drill press on low rpm and used high qauilty metal file w/oil bath. It worked but I wasn't real happy w/the end result.
I do however like your idea, might be a little easier to knock the material off ?
Did you just use a sanding drum ??

I appreciate that, I'll keep it in mind.
PM me with what your looking to get out of it.

Thanx

There are a bunch more Typhoon motor sizes here:

Most of them are smaller than the links you listed, but what catches my eye is this:

The 600 size are 6 pole.

The more poles the better huh Sikes ?

No worries... The seller is still jerking me around on my GTP roller. I have a Paypal dispute open on him right now....

OUCH, Good luck getting your item.
Sorry to complain.

Those smaller ones (700-60 and 700-68) look perfect for a buggy, but for about the same price you can get a Castle motor. However the larger ones might turn out to be a value because the Castle or Neu equivalent is far more expensive. It will all depend on where the quality is.

I can't help but believe this is another Chinese company taking advantage of the American dream and American ingenuity. These motor look like Neu replica's to the t. The specs are very similar as well as looks and dimensions.

I may buy HK lipos but I won't be buying HK motors. Steve Neu and his motor as well as help from this board are what pushed the world into the brushless revolution we have now. I'll continue to support Mr. Neu as well as Castle products.

Well, I bought a 1521 from Brian015 so I will not be getting one of these China motors after all. If it wasn't due to time constraints I would never think of buying anything other than a Genuine NEU or Castle Neu. I had to have a 1000kv or lower for my application and my choices were few and far between. I would rather of had a 1527 but I think a 1521 will be applicable for my application since it'll be rockin' on 8 & 10s

Up. Anyone tried these out yet?

In my thread!!

fantastic bang for the bucks, it has an 8mm shaft which is good for durability, but the pinions are harder to get.
