No that is all natural!
This motor looks like what the LRP tried to be. A 2 pole sensored monster. This motor has its purpose. At times you don't need the torque of a 4 pole motor, but want faster spool up. Another thing you can use at your advantage is Turbo, which you can't really use with a 4 pole motor. You can go nuts with timing and set when you want your timing advance to kick in.
The Castle, Tekin, Tekno, and Plettenberg that I have are all 4 pole motors, but they all behave differently and they all have their purpose.
