neu 1512 2.5 in a Revo
 

Whats your opinions? Would a different neu motor perform better? Im going to be running a truerc 5s 8000mah lipo.

That would seem like a fairly sound setup- probably a faster setup than others, but it depends what you want to do with the truck. Is this going to be a lightweight truck or heavier setup?

It will prob be right around 10.5 lbs. I'm not a real basher, I'm just looking for a bad a$&, fast truck.

Should be fine in that case. I know Wallot runs a 1512 in his heavy emaxx, and it works perfectly for general bashing with a good turn of speed.

I as well have a 1512/3D on 7s2p A123 cells and it is very fast. I would say it is the equivalent to running an 7XL motor on 5s2p (if that helps you), which is awesome fast for any purpose.

I love my 1512 Neu, it feels alot more responsive than my 7XL setup, although, equally as powerful... it's also quite a bit more efficient, and seem to run quieter when meshing gears? (must be because it's non-slotless design)

I have the 1515/1y in my revo almost done its what was reccomended to me and I have same setup in my 3905 max and it flies on 4s ...use mike's calculator and try different motors to see how fast you want to go.....

I went for 1512/2.5D because i was planning to use 5S and 2000kv seemed about right with gearing options i had on my maxx. 1515/1Y is more for 4S with its 2200kv and I did not want to use 6S and 1700kv version that time as quark 125 is known to dislike 6S.
Now I moved to MGM so I am going to try align 600XL 1650kv on 5S and 6S just to see the difference between Neu and Align.

As suicideneil mentioned I am very happy with my quite heavy maxx and Neu. Never had heating problems, with MGM it is very smooth and I can flip the truck whenever I want. (gearing for about 37mph) Motor stays very cool.
Maximum Amps are ~110A at heavy acceleration from standstill using 5S TrueRC 8Ah LiPos

Align 600xl
 

I've got one of these too, never tried it. I'm interested to hear about the comparison to the neu. I'm putting together a Muggy for lower speed bashing. Have you run it yet?

align 600xl
 

There fairly cheap, I'd be interested as well. You could buy 2 for the price of a Neu.
