From what i can tell the medusa motors are basically a machine wound neu clone. They appear to work well, much better than a feigao, and cost alot less than the neu motors. I am anxious to see if they bring out a 70mm motor, as those sound great for a budget setup. They may compete with the castle neu motors, price wise. Always good to have other options!

Does anyone have any good info on these? i assumed they were a cheap Chinese POS, but if they are pretty decent I may have to look into one.

Chinese POS? The medusa website is filled with "designed and engineered in the USA logos"

@GorillaMaxx360 - I don't understand your question? Set the lipo cutoff for 4s like you would for 2s or 3s, just plug into the computer and choose the 4s (12V) option. And yes, solder the ccbec up, remove the red wire and your good to go.

i was confused about the cut off becuase if the esc is made for 3s lipo and it sees you punch in a higher cut off volt wound it recoginize that the volts are higher than what it is rated at. because of this i would think the esc would not function right becuase the cutoff setting you need is not recoginized by the esc.
