The current crop of sensored motors. They spin fast, but could never make the power of even a Lehner 1920.

Lutach, the Novak motors (lower turn ones mainly) are nearing 1 hp in power output. I think the 3.5R puts out about 620 watts according to the Novak motor chart. From the 6.5R and down, they're all putting out more than 300 watts if decent battery is being used. You're right though, their motors spin pretty fast (10k Kv is freaky).

To be fair....Lehner is...err....well, they're Lehners.

Just imagine if they could do over 1400 watts like the 1920. That would be awesome. I'm going to have someone modify my HV4.5 to a lower turn motor and wrap the magnet with Kevlar or Carbon Fiber. I'm planning on making a speed record for 2S lipos. Should be fun.
