Well, I can't answer all of your questions, but I can tell you the heatsink for the Lehner will depend on the gearing and size of the motor you select. But the short answer from my research is that you will not need a heat sink. Especially with the hi-amp because it will run cooler. I'm sure someone has a way better answer than that. :005:

You might check the thread I started on this Neu vs Lehner deal for my upcoming CRT conversion. Here's the link:

From what I understand, the Lehner motors are some of the most (if not THE most) efficient motors on earth.

Anyone else have some better info than me here?:027:

According to the guys at CC (if we can trust them ?) the Neu are hands down the most effecient motors "on earth"... at least on r/c earth.

:D

AA, I belive the HiAmp motors, besides the connector differences, let you run them in either delta or wye configuration which changes the kv... it's like getting two motors in one. But I haven't really paid attention to them, maybe I'm missing something.

btw, the 4mm shaft on the Lehners stink... too bad they don't just go 5mm like everthing else.

If you already have a Quark I think the answer is obviouls... buy a Neu.

If you already have a MM or want to stay with CC, then buy a Lehner.

Since you want a second back up system that makes it harder... two Quarks is a lot of jack.

For now I am staying in the CC camp and hoping that they really deliver the goods with the MMM.

If you buy a Lehner and a second MM that's cheaper, plus you never know... the update may do the trick and you can pick up a new Neu motor. :)
