Outrunner info??

This is interesting Brian. I was thinking the same, the reaso why they have tons of torque is obvious. so is their low KV, My only concern is due to their magnets being relative far from the centre, it won't be as easy to spin up quick and spool down fast. That's a good reason to keep it low kv. (less KV means it takes less energy to spin up)

Their weight is relative low. Which is a good thing too.

I thought about putting an output cup directly onto the motorshaft and use two, turning in opposite directions. One for the left, and one for the right wheel..

With the right electronics, and 4 of these babies, you can make your own stabilizing system for corners..

Serum, last year i was going to do a true AWD setup with 4 Hacker outrunner motors. They are 550watt each so 2200 watt peak, this would be so kickass, this would prob be the best way to break the world speed record, no tranny, no diff's...

Eventually, i would like to make the motors right in the wheels, however you would have to make them light enough so not to make too much UN-SPRUNG mass, which would affect suspension abilities a lot.
