The NEU 1515 1Y (2200 KV)

Is a 4s motor isnt it?

It's a very good 4s motor. You could feed it even more volts if you want

Quote from Patrick:

Well, the 1Y works very well with 6S, we've been running 6S systems in testing a LOT.
In fact, on our test vehicles, the 1Y motor on 6S is a drop-in -- we didn't even have to change the pinion.

I'd love to throw this thing in the new e-maxx on 6s.

Heck, I plan to take 2 of these and put them in a savage x, each on a 6s2p a123 setup (24 cells total). Traxxas, I love your idea of testing the new e-maxx with a dual vxl 3s lipo setup, now I would like to see how a dual MMM 6s lipo setup would look.

I wonder if they'll have any other KV options?

So... when CC has them available, I'll have to pick out a new "new" neu to go with my two "old" neus.

As long as CC has there MMM combo out for Xmas, I should have one

Otherwise I will have to run my new maxx stock

Say that 10 times fast

[glassdoctor]

I'll just be happy to finally have an update for my MM to run my Neus and Novaks etc

Having MMM that can run 6s and doesn't need a UBEC will be icing on the cake

I think you will find neu will do extremely well out of this deal. No matter what CC would have become a major competitor of neu. Now every motor CC makes will make money for Neu. Also the number of these motors sold will go up dramatically. For example Neu might only make a third of the profit for every cc motor sold then it would on it's own motors. Thing is cc is easily likely to sell over 3 times the number of motors neu does. This would double neus income. Thats a basic example and there are lots of other things to consider but I can't believe that neu wouldn't do well out of this deal. Castle will also do real well.

I tend to agree. Neu motors are very nice to be sure, but not everyone buys them, so they have to raise the price to account for unknowns in the market. With bulk sales, they can adjust the price more aggressively since that IS a known.

all this New (Neu) business is starting to bother me

[nl12]

I will stick with the made in the USA neu motors, can't wait to get a MMM still.
