Default BRUSHLESS MOTORS

With the range of brushless motor types being so large, sensored / sensorless / high RPM / high torque / with or without fans / with or without slots / bonded / sintered and some different makes actually being the same, what are peoples views on the best or worst motors they have tried

i also agree with the above.

found nosram to be extremely good, although my orion seems to have way more torque and doesnt rev as high i feel.

the LRP X12 motors come exactly how the team ended up using the X11 motors with the 12.5mm sintered rotor.

the X12 comes with an all-new can design and is just generally a very good weapon.

bonded is pretty much no more, its all sintered.

the bigger the sintered rotor the more torque but less rpm and vice versa.

the 12.5mm sintered rotor in the X12 LRP motors is pretty much the best all-round.

This doesn't really answer the question. But it's an old sheet that offers a quick reference between the motors purely on spec. It's not up to date, but it gives you an idea.

My opinion doesn't qualify on motors, only used Novak Velocity. 5.5R, 4.5L, 6.5 Bonded. About to receive 7.5L and 6.5L. I like them, but they do not like wet at all and will stop at the slightest hint of water near the sensor wire. Blue tac a must if outside.
