It will still have more torque and efficiency, despite the gearing.

Will you use 4S or 6S?

Orders in. Thanks Castle. I used the money order option. I'll be mailing that check in ASAP.

Quick question. It wants me to mail the money order to the 235 South Kansas Ave address. I thought you guys moved?

Its not going to change appreciatively either way.


I got my tracking number, but I selected USPS as option, but it sent me a UPS tracking notice!

I hope they don't make me sign for it!

Yes, that's right. We still own 235 Kansas Ave, and the mail and UPS are automatically forwarded. But you should send it to the new address:

Castle Creations
540 N Rogers Rd.
Olathe, KS 66062


I'll let the web people know that the address hasn't been changed in the cart system yet.

Thanx!

So can someone tell me why would 1518 be better?
Not knowing your entire set up the 1518 would be better than the 2200 on 6s because the RPMs will be way lower and generate less heat and that eqauls more efficiency.

+1, higher efficiency, higher runtimes. Your setup will exactly require same power on a longer motor ;) But it will add you 30 gramms !

MBX5T Prospec MMv3 NEU-CC 1520/1Y 6S "Overkill Flying machine" ;)

Brushless, what else ?

I ordered yesterday, but still don't have confirmation e mail about my credit card charging and order process )-:
I hope they will reserve the motors while still in payment process.
I really want to try the 1520 on my XT8 and the 1518 on my 808 (both of them have the 2200 now)

Their just waiting to see what the limit is on your card so they can send a extra motor to all of us ?

Not unless you want to sell it to me for $45.00 ?
BTW, I did get that 1717 cleaned up after the swim and she works like new.

So I had to buy a 1520. I am broke as hell but still cant pass that up! LOL

SOO 1520 owners, even 1518 owners. do the 3mm front screws cut it? or should they be tapped to 4mm? Its just that I was worried with my 70mm Medusa and now the 1520 is 89mm long...

Another Note to Castle: I had put on in my cart at work and chose Priority and it was ~$5.00 now at home Priority is $9.95? WTF?


Maxx - FLM, MMM, CD Med.36x706s
Raja - FLM Ext. MM, 1512, 4s
SC8ight - MMM, 1520, 6s
D8T - MMM 1717 6s

You will be fine. Someone mentioned in the 1717 thread that the 3mm have a very high break force and it's impossible to break them.

But I'll have to drill out my muggy mount for the 1717.
