I'd say it would be a smooth can too for that reason. Plus all their other motors are smooth can. You can always slap a heat sink on even though it wouldn't be as efficient.

I beg your pardon?!

Plus, a smooth can will be cheaper to produce and will follow the standard set by their 1/18 and 1/10 motors. I'll be suprised if it's a finned can.

It would just been better initially to make the ESC. I would've thought they completely tested the ESC, but just throwing them in 1/8 buggy and E-Maxx is not convincing me yet. I will wait until everyone is completely happy and used it with other motors (Larger Neu, Lehner, Plettenberg and Mega). I understand everyone is happy and we should not be bugging Joe, but it didn't make much sense of waiting for a motor to sell it as a combo. With that out of the way, the controller should've been out much sooner.

Well... can't comment on a source, lol... and it's POSSIBLE they can get it done during March. But I'm told they are waiting not only on motors to show up, but also on the power boards for the ESC to be done so they can start the assembly line.

Mid April is IMO a more accurate date, and I'd rather be surprised with an "early" release than sit around waiting as March comes and goes.

Sorry LOL

I do not have any experience with a true Neu motor, but from what I can understand the 1512 is a powerful motor, more-so than a xl feigao. So a 1515 must be quite impressive.

So, an 1/8 buggy with a 1515 2200kv motor on 6s lipo would be quite impressive, and I am sure that it would not run hot. A new emaxx with the same combo would also be very impressive.

I am personally looking forward to the system, and the 1515 motor. I have a few pairs of 2200 - 2500mah 5s lipos, so that will be my battery of choice. Plus my most of my chargers are 5s max! And I am sick of buying lipos!

LOL... keeping mind this is April 1, I will still accept that the REAL owner of CC is now telling us 2-3 weeks and shipping by the end of the month. (at the latest it seems...)

I had to dig back about 20+ pages to quote myself

No kidding, LOL.... can you say egg on face?
The rumblings from the CC camp can be tough to figure out but they have been pointing to an April-ish date for a couple months now, and so far it's still looking good for that.

If we are still talking about this a month from now without a MMM in hand, welll....

How dare you. I think most of the peeps on here would consider that just like taking the Lords name in vane. Now you just trying to tease everyone. Smile on your face, shut your mouth. HA HA HA HA

Just giving GD a bit of teasing is all.

But seriuosly, at this point with all of the "dates that have come and gone on this one, I am still in "show me" mode with the MMM. I'll believe it when I see it.





And then I'll buy it.

[MTBikerTim]

I will get this combo for my savage and run it on 6s. Do you think it will get hot . Should be quick though.

[glassdoctor]

The 1515 is a great motor and it works just fine in a buggy. But the 1512 also works fine and it's smaller lighter and cheaper.

IF the Castle motor is the equal of the Neu then it will be a bargain and I will get one even though it's not ideal.

Joe,

Has your 2200KV motor been tested with 6s? Will it survive full RPM from a 6s lipo? I'm building a 8ight-t, I will be using your MMM ESC and had planed on the 1550KV motor and small 10-11T pinion to match to my 46T spur gear (Conversion is on order from RCProductDesigns)

I'm thinking 2200KV is way too much for 6s (I have a TP6s5000 pack I plan on using.)

Would you recomend I try your motor or just order a NEU 1515 1.5Y?

Thanks,

Lee

I am fairly sure he has stated before in this thread that the 2200 has been tested on 6s. The question is under how much load.
