This one came from Offshore Electrics.

Who can spot the imperfection on my left thumb? This ought to be far more interesting than discussing a Feigao motor.

The scar on your left thumb was caused by:

While you were using either a Drill press or a mill machine, the part you were drilling/machining came loose from it's vice or your grip. While rotating out of control, it contacted your flesh, ripping and tearing like a big dog.

Note to self: always use a vice to secure work.


Anywhere close?

How's the performance of this new motor?

Honestly, I can't say. The KB-45 was on 6s 7400mah and had a kv of 1200, through a MMM. Now this Feigao is on 10s 3700mah with a HV-110. No real comparison there, unfortunately. Not to mention the buggy is set up differently than before. So the best I can say is "comparable".

No, it happened about 2 1/2 years before I got my first RC car.

Nah, that's where the scar on my left middle finger came from
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...r/IMG_0457.jpg (click if you dare) (note the white band was due to intense moisture from keeping a bandage on it all the time)

Performance was great! Just gotta work on dialing in the ESC settings and pinion size.
