I am thinking of buying one of the Neu motors, actually I run a Medusa 1600 kv on 5s.
So should I buy a Neu 2.5D?

I ran the 36-70-1600 Medusa on 5s for awhile in the truggy. Temps where in the high 150's at the end of a run. The Medusa is a great motor for the price no doubt, but I am much happier with my Tekno Neu 1515 2.5D in the truggy. Honestlly I was a bit dissappointed with this Medusa compared to the 36-50-4800 in my CRT.5 that runs cool even on a 90* day geared for speeds close to 40MPH. Is the Neu worth $260? If your racing I say yes, if all your going to do is bash it get the Medusa for half the price. I weighed the truggy at my lhs right after I built it. It weighed in at 8lbs 12oz with the Medusa motor, Mamba Monster esc, 7955 hitec servo, RC-Monster 4500mah 5s lipo, stock body, Maximizer beadlock rims, and proline MTR tires. I would estimate that in race trim as it sits now with LPR rims and bowties it is prolly about 8 1/2 lbs
