No one has denied how the initial ROAR rules for Modified BL motors came about. The rules were proposed by Bob Novak with the participation of LRP/Associated. Novak is proud of the work done to introduce BL technology to racing.

At the time, these two companies manufactured the only motors designed specifically for ROAR-type, 6-cell, controlled racing. Castle did not release the MM until late '06.

Presently ROAR is soliciting suggestions and discussions for Stock BL motors, but has not yet proposed final rules.

hi

i wonder how one could come up with the idea to run a sensored motor on a mm esc? i don't get that. but i may lack information concerning this....

anyway i have experience only with two motors with the mm esc in the stampy. the cm4600 works pretty good but gets quite hot too after a while. those motors do not look much different than the feigaos to me.
the other motor was a plettenberg extreme. it stayed cooler with about the same performance... maybe slightly better.
have only driven it with 7 nimh cells though.

bye
