Too long. It has to be very close to 50mm long.

But then people wouldn't be able to say "ZOMG guise I got the 9000kv and a sidewinder in my rustler on 3s and it goez 120mph!!!!111!!!11one!!!11"
lol, tell me about it. I thought the 5700 was on the high side, and thought they were crazy when they released the 6900. The 7700 and 9000 is just plain crazy. Those must be something like 1T and 0.5T, respectively. I think they should have a ~3500 for 3/4s, ~2500 for 4/5s, and even a ~1800 for 5/6s. CC is literally forcing people to look at other companies' motors if they are looking to run 4-6s on the MMPro. And while they're at it, release them all as sensorless motors, but offer an optional endplate with sensors; just remove the endplate and put the sensored endplate on. Small redesign would make them a lot more versatile. This might almost make the higher kv motors more marketable since there would be less chance for cogging, not to mention high current starts since start power has to be set so high.

To tell you the truth, I am actually happy with the 4600 performance, the kv is just too high. The CC motors are not torque monsters, which is good to help keep the driveline in one piece.
