Offering one would be relatively quick and with the 14mm rotor installed, it might be a fine motor for certain applications. We are having a project update meeting today, so if you have any inputs, post them here.
Which vehicles do you see this 550 size motor being used in?
PS: we now offer Ballistic 540 wound stators in some "Specialty" winds:

A lot has changed since your "project update mtg", specifically the popularity of 1/10 scale 4WD SCT which are heavier than 1/10 scale trucks and on-road cars, but lighter than 1/8 scale and generally run 2S/3S vs. 4S+. As you know, HV4.5 (550 -5,000 Kv) is perfectly suited for this class and folks are scouring the internet trying to find them! Based on that, I'd say yes, there is a market for a Ballistic 550 in 2S winds (5,000, 4,200, etc.) and 3S winds (3,400, 3,000), or re-release the HV4.5 (motor only) for SCT 2S racing.
What are Novak's plans for this market?
