In a lighter vehicle that isn't so power/torque-hungry I think the motor would do fine. But being a 2pole, I have come to the conclusion that it just doesn't have enough torque to push my XLB (1/7 scale buggy) to 45mph.

The main reason why I didn't opt for the Medusa from the start was because of its smaller diameter. Bigger diameter generally means more torque. But we shall see.

Not sure if the 2 pole is the issue, but the material choice and general quality is not made up for by the addl size and mass the feigao offers.

I have not had much trouble with the hacker c50 xl motors moving the lst and muggy. Neither are light, and both are geared for 45+. I do think that a neu will run cooler, so I will be swapping the hackers out to see what 1521 motors can offer in the way of performance and temps.
