Whoa! If the 1000kv version draws 175A continuous I don't even want to know how much the 2000kv one does... :surprised:

I'll see what i do, i think it will be A POWERfull motor:lol:

Janezki, this motor wont draw so much A. How lower the KV, the more he pulls....

Some more info of it: http://www.savoxtech.com.tw/bls-5090.htm

Actually it's the other way around, lower kv means lower amp draw.

That 3000kv version amp draw can't be right, only 25 amps? Besides it'd turn 66600 rpm with 6S, which is bit lot for a motor that big.

Dunno, I might be wrong but something's not right with those specs. :neutral:

I wait for the 2000kv specs, then we can talk furder...

Today my Flextek arms arrived, but i wasn't too pleased when i saw the package:

A bit strange because on the order was the ammount of 150 dollar + 31 dollar shipping. I am allowed to carry-in 150 euro's but this was only 130 euro with shipping included. So i think they have taken a look with their scanner what's inside it... And then googled the stuff and found the original price of 299 dollar.... :diablo:

But here are the foto's:yipi:

what does it say on the box?? -lol- That sucks - did you end up paying duty on em?

They look really good hey - there's nothing to them!!!

It's the original good-cop message with a bad-cop meaning.

Basically it relays the message we all shudder to read :

Dear client, this EMS shipment is taxed with import duties blah blah blah

Or, in other words: Here's your parcel containing something you could not get in our piss-poor country and so which you searched out, bought and paid for with your hard earned money (30% of which we already stole as income tax) and then paidinternational shipping for.
Now we want you to bend over further while we dry-ream you further under the banner of import duties + local Sales Tax.

Looks ggreat dude!

...man those look fantastic...Its like they are ghosts of what they 'used' to be...It definately means all your weight is in the chassis now then...I just cant believe how 'minimalist' those arsm are...Nice purchase...

The quality is very bad and too expensive for that you get.
