I really like the solder tabs and cover, it's between a 50mm and 60mm motor (55mm), and it's slotless. For this project, I don't need the torque of a slotted stator style, so this might work out the best.

How do these compare to a similar Medusa temp-wise?
Well, the vxl motor is just a feigao s can motor. So based on experience with those it should be ok, I would still go with a 50mm medusa. But that is just me. I have had good success with the 15l in my 4 tec, temps are great on 5s. Even geared for 60mph. For some reason tires will not stay on the car though...

A hacker b50 s can would be a better choice over the vxl motor. But the vxl motors are cheap, and many people can get emaxx's to do 140mph with them on 1s lipo, or something like that...
