I had one Cyclon Car 5000 for my 1/10 buggy.
It's a great motor with a lot of torque. And due to its open design it doesn't
get hot even if you go for long gearing on the car.
It develops about 550 watts and it has a long and low efficiense curve. That means
that it's not good to push it through a lot of rpm, but it also means you can
use all its torque on lower rpm.
It is surely less powered that a plettenberg shadow and it doesn't do all that rpms
of the novak velocity, but with good gear it is really great.
I can think other cyclon are great as well, always due to that exotic open
design (outrunner). They are hand made in France and they are not 300$ motors.
Ciao,
Daniele
