Ok, I have had all of the above... The c50 motors are very nicely made, but a bit big in diameter.

A hacker c50 L can motor is a great buggy motor, or in a corr style truck. Not really enough motor for a truggy or monster truck due to the heavier wheels/tires. Bit more powerful than a neu 1512, but very close.

The hacker c50 xl motors make alot of power. More powerful than a 1515, IMO. I run a 11xl on a lst with a MMM and 6s lipo and it has no lack of power.

Price is a concern, but used hacker c50 motors often go for less than a used neu... Plus the hackers are 2 pole and the neu is 4 pole, so a different "feel" to each. Neus are more torquey for the weight, but I just like how a 2 pole motor coasts of power.

If you are buying a new motor, buy the Neu, or if the castle neu will fit the bill go with that. The medusa motors are a great value too.

I have 1 c50 maxx, 4 c50 L cans and 2 c50 xl motors. I really like them, and paid about $650 for all of them...lightly used. I do have a 1521 that I plan to try out, and I think it will make more power than the c50 xl. So far neu and hacker c50 are my favorite motors. I will give the castle neu a try when they get cheaper/more abundant.
