We're talking some explosive High Geared Torque coming from an Outrunner here. So Yes, the lack of a slipper is partially to blame for the problems. If there were a slipper, it could have been utilized with the setup. Inrunners don't have this type of Torque Period.

-Have you ran a scorpion motor in the direct outrunner project? If so, which one?
No I haven't. When you choose your Outrunner, whichever one it is, seep some additional RED or GREEN Loctite in between the Stator and the Bearing Holder. This is a weak spot if you run it as is. They don't put enough.

I am sure the outrunner will get enough cooling to keep it within the safe temp range... I don't really care about temps at this point, I just want to test the waters and see if I like the concept, as I always have wanted to do this, but am reluctant in the end.

One thing I don't get is the power rating, 2400watts cont. for a 440g motor? Come on, doesn't a 1515 weight almost that, and it has a 1500watt rating. Unless it's typo, or it's the max watts rating, I highly doubt it.

There's a difference in the "flyboy" rating and our Land Vehicles. The Most Major one is airflow. The ability to shed heat is one thing that affects ratings alot.

So the motor/trans that is in the truck now is 470g, I would save a small 30g, but the CG would be very low.

If I can find a way to lower the trans (G1 single speed) and make a seperate motor mount to lower the motor, then I would obviously keep using the Neu. But the outrunner just seems alot easier to accomplish this.

It's times like these when you just hate the setup of the Revo with the shocks taking up over half the room.

Yes, the Revo is VERY cramped.

It's alot to think about isn't it?
