I was adding some data to my motor spreadsheet and I noticed something under my 4 pole motor collection. The 1717 rotor is 1mm bigger in diameter and 1mm longer in length then the Plettenberg BigMaxximum. This is the actual magnet dimension and not with the end caps. So for all you 1717 motor owners....you got a True Monster motor. Ok that is old news, but I bet you feel better now. Especially when most got them for so cheap.

The difference is that the Pletty rotor is drilled balance, whereas the Castle uses the cheaper putty stuff. Also the Castle uses 4 magnets, whereas the Pletty uses 12 magnets.
