If I was going to make an apples to apples comparison between the Neu and the Lehner, would they go like this?

Neu 1515 = Lehner 1940
Neu 1512 = Lehner 1930

...or would they go more like this

Neu 1515 = Lehner 1950
Neu 1512 = Lehner 1940


Procharged,

When you got that combo, were you in the least bit concerned about the cogging issues that some have had, when running the MM with the Neu motors? That's what really stopping me from pulling the trigger.

I'd really like to maximize runtime, but I'm not sure that going with the smaller motor of either make is going to save me that much. I may just wind up having a smaller motor that has to work harder than it should be.

I remember when I was a kid...my uncle had a motor home. It had a mopar 440 in it and was a gas guzzler. It was at the time when gas prices were just starting to climb. Anyway, we pulled the 440 out of it and dropped a 225 slant into it. He figured, smaller engine, better mpg. Well, it turned out that the sacrifice in performance wasn't worth the increased mileage, because it was negligible. I wound up spending two weekends on that project. One to do it and the other to reverse what we had done.

I'm really wondering if this would apply in my case or if going with the 1515/1940 would be overkill in a buggy.

BTW, does anyone know what the MM is unofficially spec'd for? Is it up to 4S or 5S Lipo? What sort of current draws can I expect it to handle?
