hmm... good point on those cooling fans sucking all sorts of whatever into the motor jhautz. Also, what would be a good operating current to enter for the motor, i'm planning on running 30C lipos btw

Has anyone back to back tested a Neu and a Lehner before, any opinions on each of these?

I have both and I think that both are excellent. you wont be disapointed with either one. If you are in the US go with the Neu just for service reasons in case you ever need it. Not to mention they are much easier to get here as well. Price is similar, but I think Neu is a few bucks cheaper too.

Only reason I would recomend the Lehner is if you want a slightly smaller diameter motor (lehner is 36mm and Neu is 40mm) or if you want to run it with a controller that doesnt like 4+ pole motors.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Well im in Australia so i don't think location makes a huge difference

If the LMT motors are 36mm that means that they can be used with the RCM heatsink right? Is anyone using a LMT with a RCM heatsink? If so, what length sink do you use? (eg. XL, L etc.)

lastly, i entered:

22.2 volts, 60 amperes and 40,000 rpm, into the motor chooser and got a 1950/7

22.2 volts, 60 amperes and 50,000 rpm, into the motor chooser and got a 1940/7

22.2 volts, 60 amperes and 60,000 rpm, into the motor chooser and got a 1930/8

i'm not too sure what seems to be the best option Do the rpm's make a big difference in performance, both acceleration and speed, and also efficiancy

thanks
jordan
