you got the v1 or the v2 version?

i think medusas are somewhat 'neu rip-offs'... the rotor is 4pole,segmented, and housed inside a carbon shell [instead of kevlar; i guess that saves some bucks,but it`s a lot better than nothing], and the stator is slotted [don`t recall if it`s 8 or 12 slots though -it`s been almost a month since i teared my 36-50-2200v2 apart to check the insides]. the construction seems solid, even though the motors are designed in usa but made in china i believe [that also helps keeping the costs down].

nonetheless, i think they are a good option for those average bashers out there, who [at most cases] are between a cheap feigao [or ammos and similar -disposable- motors] and an expensive neu [or lehner].
now what we want, is 70-75mm medusas for our heavy trucks

A longer can usually means more torque right?

Yup, usually. More poles also equates to more torque, usually.

I have the v2 motor. Looking inside the can thru the front cooling holes it appears to have a 12 slot winding. It really looks similar to the inside shot of the neu and plett motors that I have seen.

How do you get the can apart? I guess that the rear endbell is pressed on? I tried to disassemble an aveox motor that I had bud did not have any success.

My Aveox are easy to disassemble. Most motors have that back glued on and sometimes it makes it easy to heat it up a bit to soften the glue. One ? though, why do you want to disassemble it?
