Default Muchmore Fleta ZX-W vs LRP X20

Hello. How does the Muchmore Fleta ZX-W compare to the LRP X20? More specifically 17.5T. I haven't found any official specs to the Fleta ZX, so I don't know how the motors compare on paper. I am using the Muchmore Fleta Euro. In 17.5 I will be using max 4.0 ratio, I also race 21.5 with the Muchmore Fleta ZX-W 21.5T FTT, which is spec (for FinTrack Touring TSS-10 with the Fleta Euro).

The Muchmore Motors are comparable in general to the Reedy Mach 2. That is, I wouldn't use either them or the LRP in a 17.5 class today, there are so many other 17.5 motors out there much faster. Unless your only two choices for a 17.5 motor as per the rules for a really spec, spec class are between the MM and LRP, take a look at a Motive, R-1, Trinity, Schurrspeed or even Tekin, etc., for something much better.

The reason why I thought of the MM, was because I presumed it would work best with the MM ESC. The LRP because I previously had an LRP and it was quite good. Our motors must be listed in the ROAR or EFRA motorlist. How are the Hobbywing motors?

My 17.5 LRP X20 pulls a Motive down the back straight in 1/12th scale.

You can mix and match motor and ESC and have them work well. Almost none of the brands I listed makes ESC's and motors, just motors. The HW aren't bad but again, the specialty companies that specialize in spec-class motors are the ones that over a large sample size will be the faster ones.
