So Pan finally went with a 4 pole motor.

Yes, he had to, as every other had gone with.(except Novak)

I was pretty impressed with the new motor.
4 pole fiber wrapped rotor, can't tell carbon or Kevlar cos its covered with kinda black resin.
well wound 12 slot stator has leads right from the coil wires, not soldered silicone wires like CC, and is much more flexible than Medusa and Neu because the wires are only tinned on their tips
5x13mm bearings are smaller than CC, same as Medusa, but they are ceramic bearings according to Hobbywing. Not sure if they will continue use those expensive stuff on mass production though.

Now they have two versions on sale: D41mm x L68mm 2200KV and D42mm(finned) x L74mm 2000KV. Not sure why they picked 41mm, now we have all diff dia. to choose from: 36mm, 39mm, 40mm, 41mm, 42mm, 44mm, 45mm....... I am missing the 1/10 age when every one was 36mm.

Pan should've done this a long time ago. I gave him some contacts (Not the best ones I know though ), but I guess the 2 pole versions were a bit cheaper at the time. I also told him about the different Kv ratings and my main goal was to have him do a HV unit, but I think he still doesn't see the benefit like the other places I contacted.

Yes the 2 pole FSD motors are cheap in material cost but are expensive in warranty and destroying in brand name defaming. They finally find a right way to go.

Considering your resources in hand, and endless ideas in your mind, I think you can stay in China for a while and come up with something really exciting? That would be cool, for both hobbists and your pocket.
