Slightly off-topic, but is there any chance we'll see back the 1717 motors sold from Castle again, or better: a 1721, 1724, or even a 1921, 1924 sized Castle motor? There seems to be a huge power-gap between your 1515 and the next step up 2028. Any interest in that segment or is it just too much of a niche? I know you used to have longer 15xx cans, but never got why these were discontinued.

It's very possible. We had issues with the 1717 stator design, redesigned it, were pretty happy with it, but was too expensive to build.

Arent the 1717s in the Traxxas X01 designed/build by you to?

Or do you mean that those motors where to expensive?

In the quantities we were selling them, they were too expensive.

We do make the XO-1 motor, but the quantities for that motor are high enough to support manufacturing it.

We were only selling around 10-15 per month, and MOQ on anodizing the green can was 1000pcs...
