5mm rotor "rebuild kits" are currently on order, hopefully we'll have some in May; but no exact date yet. We'll have the rebuild kits with the 1/8" shaft at the same time.
As far as the 1415/.5Y goes, we did receive a limited number of prototypes and the initial testing looks good. We do need some real world testing though.
I have one prototype left and looking for a good home. It would need to be mounted in a Losi short course, or similarly heavy short course truck on a 2s Lipo on a large outdoor track, preferably an 8th scale track. It has a 5mm output shaft so it would work very well on the new Losi short course. I only have one though so it needs to be for this specific setup. Thanks!

You have a PM sir !
I have a large track that I visit regularly as well.
I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.
Thomas, if you want a "similarly heavy short course truck"
My RC8 to SC10 4x4 conversion would be perfect
It is about 7 lbs incl. a single 2S Lipo
Just had another testday
max temp was 75 degree C without fan and about 35 degrees C ambiente
I love this motor....
Well, we kind of wanted to test this on a short course truck since that what is designed and intended for. It would probably work in a 1/8th on a conservative setup, but that won't be the intended market. We want to hit the racers on bigger tracks that are required to run 2s and where the 1410/1Y will overheat and the 1415/1Y won't produce enough speed on 2s.

Well thats want I do...
my Car is 2S only and the org. Sc10 4x4 is not much heavier
I though to have two different tracks would be an good idea.
