Well I've had great luck with my Medusa 60-2000 in my Erevo.I've been running it for 6 mos now with no issues.I run it geared 24/68 for low 40,s on 4s,but since I've been running the Monster, mostly been running 6s for low 50's,it does great.I've never had this motor hotter then 165,and that was in mid summer heat.I can't compare it to a Neu,but I ran a CC neu motor tonight,geared 25/68 in a E-revo.It ran 44,and I can't really say there was a noticeable increase in torque.But it does seem like there are more notable differences in opinions on the Medusa,they could be more of a hit or miss in getting 1 that really performs,or 1 that just does ok.

Next time you pull the Medusa and have both motors out, a picture showing the differences in diameter would be great. One with the front of each motor in front...

Not the best comparison pics, but you get what you pay for.

Send all of those motors to me so I can verify the dimensions.

From this picture the CC Neu looks a bit fatter than the Medusa, so how fat is the CC Neu motor in diameter ? I am now running a Tekno converted Losi with a 36mm motor mount, not sure if CC Neu could fit in.
Thanks.

GREAT NEWS FOR COMPARISON

Neu just released a 1400 series of motors that are 36mm in diameter. This will put the Neu quality against Medusa's. All that's on the page is 3 motors with very limited specs. Once more motors are made and more information is released, we can finally know which is better.

Yes, the 1500 series Neu's will still be better then 36mm medusas due to the diameter.
