Oops, yeah, neu does use stator size, sorry. I'm used to the lehners that use rotor size. Regardless, it should be still be about .2 in (5mm) larger at minimum.
I ordered a cm 2646 motor with a 1717 as well and several on rctech have gotten their 2646s. I guess the 1717 is not ready or the packaging needed for it is not ready. The confimation email I received said 1 to 2 weeks (that was on 12/3). Should be before Xmas....
Sweet! Hopefully I'll get mine soon, too. I think I ordered mine the day after they were available to order, hopefully not too many people jumped on it....
All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
