How would it compare to the larger 15 series? Halfway between a 1521 and a 1527, or closewr to the 1527. I never did run a 1527, but I have plenty of experience with the 1521 and the 1717 seems to be as big or more of a jump past the 1521 as the 1521 is to a 1515. Hope that makes sense. Just trying to get a feel for what that 1717 can do.

Still would like to see a few more 17 series motors. A 1727 would be very nice...

The 1717 has more torque than the 1520, just because of the larger rotor. I would think it would fall about in the middle between a 1521 and 1527 (just with quick Windows Calculator math...)

We are redesigning the rotor and stator on the 1717 right now -- trying to juice a little more torque, and less torque ripple.
