CC's 2200 KV motor will be good as Neu 1515?
 

IM about to order the MMM since I already have the 1512 2.5d motor but I saw an ad at tower selling MMM 2200KV motor combo for only $262. Im already paying about 160 for the MMM and for 100 bucks more I think its a steal..

Do you think the quality of CC motor will be good as Neu? kinda confused..

Haven't seen much detail - they are supposed to be Neu designed, just produced in China. Besides that and the kv is about all I've seen. I'd expect them to be pretty good since CC is involved.

Looking at BPP site, it appears as though they have a 1515 1y, and a 1.5d motor available? Any other info on the motor choices?

Didnt long ago CC say they were releasing a 1515 1y (ish) and a 1512 1y (ish) 1st. maybe thats the 2650 kv is a 1512 ?

here it is at tower Link

No one mentions the 2600 motor being smaller so I'd say it's a 1515. It would be great if they did make a 1512 though.

Price has jumped from 260 to near 300 dollars.
I won't be surprised if it goes up to 350. Afterall, making a motor as good as a NEU and at the same time way cheaper is quite difficult, imho.

I made an order from BPP site over 2 weeks ago for a MM combo 5700. I saw no where on there site that said it was back ordered. I still have not recieved any shipping info. Email them before you order to verify the stuff is in stock.

I have ordered from BPP before and they have lousy costumer service. their prices are great but if you have to wait 2 or more weeks then saving $10 or so aint worth it. Order from Tower, this combo and pay only about $260 bucks. Its 296-35 savior discount and pay about 261. That a good deal..

They have good service but like mike are a 1 man outfit and hence drop the ball every once in a while - Sometimes supporting the little guy does some good i.e. this forum.

I don't see tower taking back my 1 year old charger and flashing it to the new firmware for free... Troy did this in fact he gave me the new model of charger the 606i at no charge

IMO the motor will have a the Neu design :great: but chinese material and worksmanship :bad:

Sounds like a feigao to me... Hacker design (not as good a neu design) and chinese materials. I am sure that castle will turn out a decent motor. After all, they are claiming the 1y will be good for 6s lipo usage... and the 2600-2700kv motor (1515 1.5d?) will be good for 4s.

I will wait until a few people have some time on the motors before I buy one. My v1 MMM is still working, and I have plenty of motors...

This is what Patrick posted on another thread:

"The first two motors will be 2200Kv (1515/1Y) and 2600Kv (1512/1Y)" I knew it said that somewhere, the bong didnt totally retard me YAY :party: :drunk:

I helped start up an opeation in China in 2006-07. They work real hard and try very hard, but in my experience, the language barrier leads to a lot of problems. You can get a Chinese translator to rewrite your test protocols and sometimes you hardly recognize what the Chinese do based on that translation.

I was part of setting up a core storage, core analysis facility and literally you had to take them and show them on the equipment, step-by-step what you really wanted and sometimes more than once. Their language and ours are not very compatible and sometimes just does not translate directly and unless you've bumped into it personally its hard to appreciate how difficult it can make things. You're trying, they're trying, just can't quite seem to get together. I've also seen their excitement when they finally do catch on, that's cool to see it happen.

I suspect CC has seen this already.

Sweet I missed this completely. It's a shame it's not the 2200kv 1512 as it would make gearing easier and the rules for brushless 1/8th here sounds like it will require lower kv motors then this.
