Neu vs Medusa motor temps

[BrianG]

Yeah, Neus are top-notch. But really, any decent motor will work just fine if the proper motor is selected and you get the rpms and gearing set right. Lesser motors (Feigao) work too, they just don't work quite as well or as long, and get hotter due to inefficiency. When comparing Medusa vs Neu, it comes down to how much do you want to spend for that extra little bit. Sometimes it makes sense, sometimes it doesn't.

I agree whole heartedly, but its hard to run anything after you had a true Neu. I have the 1515/2.5d/f in my G2R it runs 20/51 on a gorilla half tranny and 1/8 diffs, it runs under 120* most times at 4 and 5s lipo

I think racers and large vehicle users will see the benefit of the neu motors over all others. For someone with an 1/8 buggy or emaxx/erevo who does not race it can get great value out of the medusa motors.

I have a medusa in a buggy and it does well, but after reading about various people's issues with the 70 and 80mm motors I may just stick with 1521 neus for the bigger vehicles...
