Medusa Afterburner V2 BL motors

well after reading all this and seeing that the 36-60-2000v2 and 1600v2 are available now ...i'm going to order one for my emaxx, mm,bec, 2s2p 8000mah

which one should I get?...I saw no definitive answer here

I'm guessing the 2000v2? and will it perform well on 6s also?

Not sure where you seeing the 2000kv V2 is available now (showing backordered).

I would say on 4S setup, I would go with the 2000Kv V2. That is what I am looking at.

well it was listed in stock at impakt so I ordered it and now they are out of stock...but I see the 36-60-1600v2 is still in stock

1600 should be great for 6s, to give same topspeed as the 2000 on 4s. 2000 on 6s will be rather fun to see...

my thoughts also........I called impakt just make sure my order was accualy in stock.....he told me I got the last 36-60-2000 and that it would ship today.......its going in my 3906 with mm and bec.......I asked what gearing he recommended on 4's....he said stock 18/68 should produce a fast cool truck

I just put the 60mm 1500 kv motor in my maxx and did some preliminary tests inside. This thing has a ton of torque. I was running a 600xl on 6s and wanted to try the medusa. I will try to do a little driving outside tonight but if not tomorrow.

I thought that the medusa was much better than the align motor. Really woke up my hyper8, but it did smoke the quark 65! Not sure if it was the motor's fault though.

Yeah, a far cry better. I think I can gear the medusa up a little more than the align. My maxx is 10lbs rtr so I think the medusa will fair well. If the temps stay good on this I will be buying more from medusa.

Linc does your 600xl spin fairly freely by hand? The magnets in the medusa feel so much stronger than the align.

Contacted Medusa and my order should be shipping in two weeks.

Hi I have a backorder in for the MedUsa 36 60 1600 v2, I currently run a 9XL.

Should I be waiting for the 70MM motor? I am OK with the power of the 9XL but I am not happy with the heat. Looking for a more efficient motor.

The 60mm should do fine for you. My 50mm runs cooler then the XL's I've heard of geared for about the same speed in a Maxx. Since I upgraded to the Neu 1512-2.5D I also went to 6s A123's and this truck is awesome now, the Neu does tend to run a bit warmer then the Medusa did though.

Your really going to like the Medusa

I ran my 1500 60mm today 6s geared 20/68 and am getting really hot on the motor and controller after just a few minutes.. Is this too much? According to the speed calculator it's only 37 mph. I am using an mgm 16018.

Can you define really hot?

My truck was radared at 42mph but geared for 33mph FWIW. So with gearing for 37mph(about the same as my current setup) I expect it's doing into the mid to upper 40's. A quick calc say's I should be close to 47mph with my setup, and I would say it feels close to that. My motor is getting up to mid 140's which does feel quite hot to the touch, but perfectly acceptable.

I need to get a infrared thermometer but right now it gets too hot to touch even for a second.
