540 XL vs 580 L vs neu castle vs neu

[video200]

I agree Mr Smock, I find the DF33 not the best 6s hull

probarly not the best out there. but so far it have treated me good :)

I have (3) neu 1515 1.5y's with very low use.... I could be coaxed into selling one.... I just put one in my Toysport triton but I also have one in my Aeromarine Titan and my mean machine... all 1515 1.5y's:) they are good motors for sure.. heres one of em' in my triton:)

What kind of speed are you getting on the Triton with that motor and what prop are you using? I have a Triton sitting on the shelf and I am trying to decide whether to put a 1515 1Y or a 1515 1.5Y. I am running 4s so the 1515 1.5y would seem a bit low on the rpm side??

What is the difference between the Neu and the Neu Castle? Has anyone tried the Neu Castle motors yet?

[Raydee]

The 1515 1.5Y won't be enough on 4s. The Neu/Castle motors are mass produced in China using Steve Neu's designs. From what I read and was told they are about 10% less powerful than a real Neu motor. I run one in my 8th scale truggy and it runs great.

For hulls > 30", you might want to consider the 1521

Have a look to Tenshock motors

There seems to be two opinions on the motor size to get 1515 vs 1521. Since I am looking for speeds at around 45 - 50 on my triton running 4s which size makes sense? Will I get more amps and heat on the 1515 vs 1521? This has been a great thread by the way.

Spend once and enjoy longer...go for the the NEU/castle. You will not regret it.

[Xfactor]

which one if there is one is closer to a 1527 2y I think thats the right model for 1/8th scales isnt it?
