You really cant go wrong with either. I own both Lehner(1940) and Nue(1512 and 1515) and they are both top notch motors IMO. Neu was originally designed for air aplications. thats why the holes. Its no issue to cover the holes, but its a hassle and one of the downsides to the Neus. The lehner is just flat out an awesome motor. Powerfull and cool running. Just wish it had a couple more mm in the mounting hole depth.

I actually like the feeling of the Nue slightly better. The low speed drivability on the Nue is smoother IMO. It just torques up nice smooth and you can actually drive it at a low speed very easily, but still has excellent snap when you want it to go.

The Lehner is smooth also, but I feel like it doesn't handle the low speed fine control quite as smoothly. It goes ok at low speed then kind of all the suden hits a spike in the power band.

This could be just my setup, but thats my input as well. And then again... Who wants to drive at low speed anyway???:007:


Both are top notch and you will be happy with whatever you choose.
