The $60 voucher was for international orders over $300. I was tempted to pre-order but I didn't.

Oh boy -- I gotta jump in here...

First of all, the Castle Neu motors are not yet in production -- we are still hammering out some production issues (mostly magnet procurement...)

Second, the Castle Neu motor is hand wound. I don't believe you can machine wind the Neu design (it's an internal wind -- can't be wound on a fly winder.)

Third, it does run at pretty much the same efficiency as the original Neu -- it is exactly the same design, except for the carbon winding on the rotor, and case and bearings (heavier case, larger bearings.)

Thanx!

Patrick

I think the combo price is $349.95 with a MMM (retail.)

Is there only going to be a 2200 kv combo, or are you going to have more options, like in the 1300-1600 kv range for 6S lipo?

The first two motors will be 2200Kv (1515/1Y) and 2600Kv (1512/1Y)

We will add additional motors later.

great to hear. I am running 6s and well the 1y would be a little overkill. actually the 3d on 6s seems to be very nice.

Patrick, Any update on when we will see our replced/repaired Monsters? Another question: Will those first 2 motors be released at the same time?

Thanks
Mike

Patrick, may I know the differences between the first and second productions of the Mamba Monster?

Also, what about the HV version?


The name is Alawi. You can call me Al.
Nice to meet you!
