Without getting into the Y vs D debate, there is no "better". D config will have 1.73x the kv of a Y config, but 1.73x less torque. So, it depends on what voltage you plan on running. Or, if you have the motor with plugs, a quick rewire lets you go from a 2s to 3s battery pack without changing the motor - kinda like having two seperate motors in one package.

It is said that D config motors run equally efficient in both directions, while Y operates a little more efficiently that the D config, but in one direction (the other direction is not as good, but not bad either).
