Questions about Castle repair kits

[lincpimp]

Personally I would like to see a 6000+kv 20 series motor, so I can use 1s lipo in my fine design baja 5b conversion... We all know that LV (low voltage) is the way to go for heavier vehicles, and the 1/0 gague wires just look so cool. A special 1 cell version of the XL esc would be cool to, nix the heatsinks for weight savings too, every ounce counts!!!

Also like to see the 17 and 20 series motors with 1/8 shafts, so my current selection of 64p aluminum racing pinions will fit.

All kidding aside I would like to see a longer version of the 17 series motor, like a 1724, with around 1200kv. Would be great with the XL esc on 8s in the various stretched chassis 1/8 scale stuff, and would be an alternative to the big 20 series motors in a lightened or dedicated E chasssis 1/5 scales. And a lower kv version too, for use with 12s when the HV XL comes out, say 780kv. Figuring 35k rpm with nominal lipo voltages here.

I got a 2833 sitting on my desk right now. It's an eight pole, 200kV, 12kW monster. About 20K RPM on 100V.

Got an application???

12kw, so 16hp. Hmm, if you could whip up a 2spd planetary gearbix for it I think we may have a good powerplant for an electric scooter. Or a ride on lawnmower. The scooter would be cool, limit it to around 40-45mph and get about 30-40 mile range.

Or a 1/2 scale rc car.

Hmm. I'm thinking it's time for another visit to your office. But if that motor mysteriously comes up missing, it'll just be a coincidence.

PS: You should also have a suitable ESC (and maybe that gearbox linc was talking about) sitting on your desk at the same time.

Lithium-battery-powered go karts? How would it do on 48V?

Any idea on the ETA of the repair kits for the 1518, 1520 and the 1717? Would like to have spares in the tool box.
