I really don't think there is anything different in an outrunner, except for motor inertia (although it's spinning alot slower, so that is near canceled out), it has many times more torque, but spins many times slower, so power ends up being the same as well.

Unless I didn't get the idea you were trying to convey? Explain in more detail?


On a side note, I posted some pics of roughly what I was thinking of when I said tilting the trans and making a mount for the motor in the center of the chassis, and lowering it. Check it out. Looks like a pretty balanced setup?
yep, Watts is Watts but could there be something more? LOL

KV versus gearing versus final efficiency rating. I get that.

That's an interesting way to look at tranny position. I like that, but how are you going to secure it?

This should be good.
