I would love too get the medusa motor but my problem is that my brotherinlaw only has a 80 amp esc and a max of 60mm can leangth that will fit his truck.

I have had 4 lehner motors and about 10 feigaos and let me tell you there IS a huge difference between them. I am fully aware of that. I have killed one of the lehners and had 5 of the feigaos die on me. The rest still work even after many years of use.

If theses motors are a huge hassle to get and take a while I will just get a feigao from mike to replace the 10l(we already have the heatsink/clamp)

Hi - Go for a medusa 60mm 2000 or lower KV - fits your requirements.

Appreciate it is just over the $100 but worth the difference - You can use your L clamp with it too...

Sweet, I just email meduse about the motor too to get there opinion. It looks like it will fit the bill. I think the 80amp mgm will handle it. Its a tough esc and if it handled the 7xl as well as it did with out a fan and one heat sink coverd up I think the medusa will be a walk in the park for it.

I wouldn't waste my money on that peice of crap. The factory that makes those are messed up in the head or something. I got 2 of those and they came with 1/8" shaft and they won't even bother fixing the issue.

This is the motor I received today.This thing if freakin huge it has a 5mm shaft that is keyed.The rear endbell is bolted on.Its going into my Slayer tomorrow.Its too big to fit in my Matrix.Whats the best way to splice wires to this motor that will have 6.5mm bullets to hook up to the MMM females on the esc?

No the blue motor is a Tekno Neu 1515/1y.The purple motor is the Bid product motor.For 50 bucks it seems to good to be true we shall see.

Make some extension wires that have female bullets that fit the motor male bullets on one side, and male 6.5mm on the other end for the esc.

Plug and Play.

22 days isnt that bad I guess. Since you were expecting it.

It when you are looking for it in 3 day and it shows up in 22, thats when 22 days is bad

Like I said before, I wouldn't waste my hard earned dime on those. The factory has no support what so ever and if your motor fails you're money just goes down the drain. What=y don't you all save up for a Medusa, Neu or a Mega or mine when they come out.

agreed dont waste the time / money or effort with these . i had one 2200kv and it threw the magnets on 4s lipo .. i spose they MAY be OK if u keep them about 30k rpm , but any more the magnets go bye bye .. buy a medusa $50 is half way there and it will last 4 times as long as these china junk

its a shame cause these motors do look great quality build from the outside . near on exact copy of a hacker c50
