I threw one on the scale and it came out at 213.2 grams.

I've been running new Orion 100Cs (not ultras, but new batts), so I'll report back the difference in IR as well as track comparison.

Ultimately I'd like to find out how these stack up against Trinity's White Carbon packs. At literally half the price.

How do you like the battery? Im anxious to try mine.

Jeff
Got my motor today, nice to get one assembled right ( or at least the way I would).
1st Fantom motor, won't be the last.

Thanks
Tom

Must have been my connection or they were down for a bit. That's why I put link to see if phone would go to website. Didn't work either. Glad it's all good now.

Warren, Thank You first of all. I bought one for 1 cell use.
13.5 I plan to run it in blinky oval. I also will try it in WGT 13.5
I have a motor tester so I can set the timing anywhere I need to with accuracy.
Any pointers would be Great

Thanks
Tom

Default FR-1 T type
What do you recommend for TC 17.5 on a track with about 85 to 90 foot straight, fdr, timing and amp draw?

Thanks
