I ran a 600xl on 5s lipo. It worked well but when I switched to a 70mm Medusa the improvement in torque and speed was HUGE. It's like Linc says, spin-up is noticeably slow in the Align motor - because it's designed to turn large rotor blades! When I switched again to a 1515 2.5d Neu, the power is about the same as the Medusa but with much lower motor temps.

Save the in-between step and go straight to the Neu!
