i have heard issues of putting neu motors with the losi conversion. i have heard that the shaft on the neu is not long enough. is this right? will i have any issues putting an neu motor on a losi conversion?

I saw some pics of a losi b 1.0/losi conversion on the starting grid with a neu motor posted yesterday. I looks like if you use the novak/losi pinion the neu is ok. The Novak pinion is longer then the robinson. In fact I used the novak pinion on my medusa/mbx6/rcmonster to get the correct fit. The medusa and neu have different end bell configs. Not sure if the flat has t be extended when using the novak pinion.

I have the Castle-Neu combo in my 2.0. No problems using the Losi pinions, they fit just fine. You will have to get new screws to mount the motor. The only mod I had to do was grind down the rear motor support. Because of the finned case the motor diameter is larger than the Losi motor.

On 5s it's insanely fast. If I open it up on the straight I feel like I need a front wing to keep it from flying. It actually drives nice, heavy but nice.
