Yep. Just as Mr. Tag said these have the 12.3 purple broad band rotor. They said the 12.5 Maxzilla version was probably a few months away.

Yes, Duo and Kill Shot rotors will fit. They are designed to use the same style rotors.

You gonna test one out Sunday? I'm still not sure if I'm gonna make it out there or not. I'd like to though. Anyways, I guess I'll pull the ring out of my KillShot and toss it in my D4 when it arrives. Thanks.

I have bought 10 trinity motors and I can say 2 were good and 8 sucked I hope the d4 motor is not a flop like the pulse, dou 2, revtec or the killshot. The duo 1 17.5 is the second best motor I have ever owned while the d 3.5 was the best.

So is this the best Trinity BL motor yet? Looks promising thus far.

Just curious what you didn't like about the Revtech and the Killshot?
