Hot, Hot, Hot

Just tried it with no load and it got surprisingly hot just in my hand. Would I be able to get something significantly better for around 150? I'm not quite ready to drop 300 on a motor, but I would spend a little extra for a cooler more efficient one.

It'll do that because it is totally unloaded and these motors WILL heat up when run unloaded...

Lets see, 150 bucks for a decent 5s motor?

Well you could get a mega, 22/35/2, that one is around 1500kv. Rpm will be a bit low, a 2000kv motor would be best IMO.

Or try out the new Medusa afterburner v2 motor, the 36/60/2000, or the 36/60/1600 look good. I have the 36/60/1500 to run on 6s, just have not had a chance to install it yet.

The align 600xl is a good motor, but it does not have the same pep that a true inrunner does. That being said it makes plenty of power and is reasonably effecient.

36/60/2000 is outta stock
