I won't be coming to the UK any time soon, that would be nice though! So I am leaning away from any 8s due to compartment sizes and keep it level with the 91.2mph, other than motor pick. Any thoughts on the pletty biggmaximum? My last one was a beast on 6s

You're welcome over here any time Kev! - Hi Tony, BTW
Hmmm. Well batteries will always be an issue if you're going to use the standard E-Revo chassis / battery compartments. You might, ( Just! ) be able to get 8S in there if you used Revtech's Double Deuce LiPo's.
Don't know much about Plettenberg. When I researched them, they seemed overweight for the power and overpriced but a lot of people seem to love 'em.

^Pretty much ditto. The Pletts are certainly quality motors, but they are rather heavy and large ( built-in heatsink )- a 1515 sized Neu is just as powerful and cheaper, and has a range of kv choices vs the Plett BigMaxximum which comes only in 2300kv flavour..

Well I have decided to go with the same one, 1515 1.5D, to keep it even with the champ then go from there.
So what about the extras when ordering a Neu? I want to go finned, what about the 10 wind adder and 8mm shaft? Worth it or even needed?

OoohKay!
5mm shaft is probably best - Easier to get pinions. Not sure about the 10 wind adder. The smooth can is $200 at Offshore Electrics.

Really? How exactly would you make it fit in a revo?

Interesting point, Brian.
Also, the motor on the standard E-Revo is mounted quite high up so it's not a bad idea to have a light motor. The 5692 is a great motor but I can't help thinking that it would upset the handling.

of course will need make another optional motor mount and use very big pinions .... but if he put this motor on a revo is sure will have all the power need for arrive at this crazy speeds
another option is use a smaller motors same than the 4082 ...... but will have much lower power ......
is her decission ....

Sorry, putting a 5692 into a revo is a stupid idea.

Sorry Brian? Did you say YOU THINK it's a stupid idea?
Personally, I feel that throwing yourself out of an aeroplane ( with or without a back-pack full of laundry ) is not a very clever idea. However, I wouldn't seek to criticise anyone who chose to suggest it, or, in fact decided to do it.

I would worry about the rotor shattering at full throttle- that's a fat rotor, and given the rpm limit imposed by Castle for the 1717 & 2028 motors, the 5692 may not like 40,000rpms+ very much. A longer rotor seems preferable to a fatter one at these speeds, given a 1515 diameter & length is more than enough for 90mph..

Weeell, I s'pose, if you need something to worry about, that's as good a thing as any.
If you really want to go fast, though, there seems little point to me in looking beyond Neu ( as opposed to Neu/Castle) or Tenshock.

if you search arrive at 90-100mph using a monster of 5-6kg you will need MUUUUUUCCCCHHHHHH POWER ....... sincerely I think is IMPOSSIBLE arrive at this speeds using a motor of 400-500gr ...... simply because I tested more than 30 motors and Im sure what is possible using a motor of 400gr-500gr .....
everybody have her opinion ........ and everybody have her EXPERIENCES ...... nothing more ...... I dont search discuss ...... if you think is better use a 1515 or 1518 for me is not a problem ...... is your opinion :D
