Has anyone heard anything from horizon about when the carbon towers and hinge pin retainers might be in? Tired of waiting on parts! LOL

Also does any one here use a power screw driver to work on RC's? I have been looking at a few and most are around 100.00 for a small driver, anyone had any luck with a cheaper driver for wrenching on RC'S? Don't want to strip things out but would like to speed the process up, I seen the guys at the hobby shop using power tools and the light bulb went off in my head like ooh yeah why didn't I think of that. Still haven't found a great tool for the job yet.
I've had good luck with a $39 black and decker smart driver. The clutch settings work great for not overtightening screws and its gotta cool light that is directed toward the screw.

Ryan said the carbon towers are in stock. Not sure about hinge pin retainers.

You can get both from Steve at SNR http://www.snrgraphite.com/index.php...index&cPath=13

He doesn't have his carbon hinge pin retainers on his site, but email him at [email protected] and he will get them to you.

Sorry I didn't check prices for the 1415 on its own before posting. Love my 1415....just thought there was some kind of deal going on for the 3800? The the 3800 is lighter smaller and is a rocket on 2s. My 1415 on 2s aint all that and seems to heat up a bit...3s is great. I'll have a new 3800 next week and I'm keeping my 1415 for bashing.

The 1415 is a 2400kv motor and the 1410 is a 3800kv motor. Hope that cleared it up for you.

I've worn one of these out and I'm on my second - great tool, farily light weight and my first one lasted 5 years!

ahh thank you, so the 1415 has more torque then the 1410, but the 1410 has higher rpm?

the 1415 is a 550 sized 4 pole motor, the 1410 is a 540 sized 4 pole motor.

The 1410 on 2s will have as much or more torque as the 1415 on a 2s setup due to the low RPM's on the 1415. You can gear up the 1415 to get similar maybe even more effective torque but at a huge cost of efficiency.. both in heat and how much mAH you burn off your batteries.. it is very inefficient running at that low of a RPM. The 3800 is just under 30k which is the "magic" number, the 1415 is only at like 18k rpm which is pretty bad. On 3s lipo it's another story altogether.. the 1415 is pretty sweet.

I would just like to add it's not like the 1415 is so inefficient that you can't run races and worry about battery life. I run 8-10 minute mains and have zero issues with running low on battery.

It is still a really good motor even on 2s geared right of course.
