Medusa 36x70mm 2300Kv V2 Afterburner is what i found but it is on pre order. are they brand new, none shipping out yet?

im running with the MMM so i need something nice. 130ish range is what i am thinking.

here is a video of my 8XL.. new lipo, i think i killed it. it has always cogged just the littlest big but never like this..

No reports yet on the 70mm Medusa's, they are just now shipping pre-orders from two months ago. Someone claimed to have received one earlier this week but has not posted since then?? Do you know how hot you got your 8XL?

i have had it up to 200 multiple times. this motor is very susceptive to overheating.

from what you know about motors and that Medusa has to claim, would you say this should be a decent motor? in comparison to the 8Xl and the Neu motors, whats your thoughts?

5150, Legally insane isn't it?

Are the Medusa motors a pressed can? If I did get one would I need a Clamp?

Yes they will need a clamp.I have the 36-60-2000,and it's way better then my 8xl,runs cooler,and faster.So I'd imagine the 70 will be that much better.
