Looking for a lehner 1930

[BL_RV0]

If anyone has one of any wind, shoot me a PM or post here!! THANKS

Just curious; why a Lehner? Sure, they are nice motors, but getting support seems to be a PITA. Neu is just as good if not better, and Medusa is not that far behind...

The 1930 is ideal for my app- Just the right size, very lightweight, and an amazing weight to power ratio.

Lehner 1930 = 36mm dia X 54mm long
Medusa 36-60 = 36mm dia X 60mm long
Neu 1509 = 39mm dia X 54mm long

What's wrong with the sizes of the Medusa or Neu? IMO, a Neu 1509 is hands down a better motor than a Lehner 1930 and the Medusa is probably as good or better too. Aside from that, you're probably going to spend as much or more on a used 1930 than a new Neu or Medusa. Then, good luck with any support at all if you ever have problems with it.

I could honestly careless about supporting the USA economy. Im not a neu fan and never really was. Their nice motors with great build but I prefer german made materials... And ben you cant say that the neu will preform better by any means. Its all testing, trial and error. And whats the problem with 2-pole, nothing. The build quality for lehners is bar-non the highest if not closest to highest quality acheivable with the materials we have today. IMHO...

Spoken like a teenager that doesn't have to work to support themselves.

Hmm, let's see...Neu Motors are in more NAMBA record boats than any other motor: http://www.namba.com/content/records.asp?EventType=11

How about IMPBA records...more than Lehner yet again:

I'm still not sure why anyone would want to spend more money on a 2 pole motor just because it's German. Personal preference is one thing, but implying the German materials are better is just plain ridiculous. Perhaps you've just never been a Neu fan because you've never had the cajones to buy one? http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...8&postcount=40

Have you ever even owned a Lehner?

I have never owned a neu or lehner and I admit it but i have owned hackers. Ive seen neu's and lehners race head to head at my lhs and up in greenbay and I prefer lehners. The neus have a little better low end accel from what Ive noticed and the lehners are pretty decent on low end but have a greater powerband on mid-high end which is what I prefer... And yes I would spend the extra cash on a 2-pole lehner because its what I prefer and that comes back to what I said before. "Its all personal preferance..."

I am not home very often and when Im home its so I can be on the computer. I pay for 80% of the stuff that I need accept for food/grocery's. 50% of the money I have go towards hanging out with friends and the other 50% goes towards this hobby. I am currently looking for another job because Im saving for a newer "car".

hackers arent either of the others... And how can you compare the two cuz u have seen them race, you dont know all the important details. You cant base everything on what you see. if u dont want low end power and you want midrange-get nitro and be done.

You have no say in this either since you havent ran a real neu or lehner....

Im not the one saying one is better then the other. and the CC 2200 is just as nice as the real thing.

Hey kids! I have owned all of the mentioned motors...

Lehner 1930 = 36mm dia X 54mm long
Medusa 36-60 = 36mm dia X 60mm long
Neu 1509 = 39mm dia X 54mm long

So you need a motor that is somewhere in those specs. Nothing against a lehner, but a hacker c50 motor will be just as good. They are a bit large in diameter, but a L can should do what you want (based on what lehner you are looking for)

Some other info about your desired results and setup would be cool.

As for the race that TD saw. Give me either vehicle and I will make it faster than the other. Setup and driver skill are about 60-80% of the total. Plus battery choice will make a big difference.

[What's_nitro?]

I own both. Neu and Lehner. I think the quality of either one could be called: THE BEST. They each have their own benefits performance wise. If we knew what the "app" was it would make this a lot easier. In a nutshell: if it's light/speedy- Lehner. If it's heavy/torquey- Neu.
