Brian, thanks again for the help and advice.
I am just annoyed that the 5682 has a 6mm shaft on it. I guess it could work well... and a mate of mine loves his 2000kv motor in his XXL flux too. Says it always runs cool.
I could run this motor nicely on 10s as well which would be beneficial...
I do not want to get a 1717 although it is a very good motor, just because i am not able to run 8s and even 8s is a push.... I bought a 12s esc wanting to run 9s or more preferebly 10s. (i thought 12s would be uncessary in terms of adding lipo weight.
Honestly though... i am not sure if i could even fit the length of a 1527 in my chassis... as my new TVPs havent arrived and i cant mock things up just yet....
Also i am not sure, but is the leopard 5682 as fat as the 1527?
I was looking at this 1000kv leopard motor which has a 5mm shaft as yes is a little smaller... but is described as a motor for heavy 1/8 or lightweight 1/5 which i believe my savage falls into???
What do you think?
