Ugg. The 4600 is an "ok" motor, but is really smaller than a true "S" size motor because of the space taken up by the coil wire to noodle wire connections. If CC had a series of motors that were 60mm long, that would work I think; the kv and can size (torque) would be a better match for this setup. Besides, this is geared kinda high and I'll need the extra torque that a slightly longer motor will provide to get going; either that or go with a slotted stator type in a shorter can.
