Good movie.. I'm class of 91...

The stiff wires are normal.... some companies make them a littel more "pretty" but it's just the way it is. Even the Neus have the stiff wire, but it's neater and has black shrink instead of fat rainbow colored shrink.

The Hacker are a little better than the Feigaos but very similar. I think the biggest difference is quality control... tighter mfg tolerances. Right now I would pass on Hacker and just run the Feigao knock-offs... unless you get a killer deal on them. How much are these Hackers???

Shawn P has told me before that the Hackers are not impressive in efficiency etc compared to a Neu or Pletty.. and that the Lehners were somewhere in the middle.

Yes Shawn recomended the Neu... they still think the Neu are incredible motors, that nothing out there is better, more efficient. But I think they really didn't have a lot of actual bashing experience with them... more "lab" time... and #'s.

And I recall not having much problem with cogging when I first ran my buggy... didn't happen very often. It seems worse now. That's actually something I'm a bit concerned about... do the MM slowly crap out? Caps get toasted?

I would still reomend a Neu... but I can't blame you for waiting until the cogging is fixed. Why not just run the 7XL for now... get a feel for it and then you might know better where to go from there.
