I wonder what diameter this "720 size" motor is (hopefully that nomenclature is not just a marketing scheme, and really denotes a larger-than-540 diameter size). If it's the same diameter as a Dewalt 700 motor....that'd be SICKENING torque.

In fact, that size motor would probably be ideal for these conversions; far less stress on the motor with such a large potential rotor.
On rc groups, in the Neu motors section, there is a thread where someone refers to a 19 series neu as a 720. I'll see if i can find it. If true, WOW!!! the torque.

found it http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=900834


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
