I did get a little more testing done this week with the outrunner. I ran 2 more packs with it and 2 more packs with the Neu 1515/2.5D. All in all it ran pretty well on the outrunner, but it didn't quite have the snap and responsiveness of the neu. The spool up made it feel a little sluggish on the bottom end. I think I am going to wind up sticking with the Neu and the Quark 80B as the final setup.

I forgot my eagletree but using my Watts Up meter I saw amp spikes of around 120A on the Outrunner motor and around 112A on the Neu. I'm kinda surprised that the outrunner was drawing more considering how much bigger the neu motor is.

I also made a few changes to the setup to accommodate the Quark. I made an ESC mount/heatsink out of aluminum L stock and put a haetsink on the side with a small fan. Seems to work fine, but when is 40 degrees outside anything stays cool. We'll see this summer I guess.

Anyway... Heres a few photos of its final (for now) form.








I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
