For those interested: This past weekend I did some back to back testing with the Motiv and D4 17.5's. I ran almost identical lap times with the two motors (Motiv was faster by 0.02), but the Motiv felt stronger towards the end of the run with little to no drop-off in power. This was with the optional high torque rotor. Very smooth power band!
Up next is Stock Wars at MRH this coming week, and more testing will be done. I know that Craig Xavier, Robbie Dodge, Paul, and myself will be running this motor among others.

Congrats Paul and Sam... Titanium screws available for this motor ??? What are the screw sizes for this motor, sensor board screws and long can screws ???
Congratulations to Paul and to Sam Isaacs who used a Motiv M-Code to TQ 17.5 TC at the Halloween Classic this past weekend at The Gate. Sam found some unfortunate luck in the main but was able to bring it home 2nd. Sam also used a Motiv M-Code in 13.5 TC to qualify and place 2nd in what was a close battle all weekend long.
After speaking with Paul and Sam yesterday, they are both very pleased with the result and feel that the spec motor program is coming around really well. Next event coming up is Stock Wars on October 23-25 in Middle River, MD. Thanks to Paul and Motiv for being the title sponsor for this event! http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...-wars-mrh.html

does the motiv motors have temp sensors built in, so i can check the temps through my Vortex/M12 telemetry?

Was Paul using the standard rotor in 17.5?

I got my D41S up to 221degrees on Sunday (forgot to change the gearing after the Penticton WCICS event). With that said, I might order a Motiv 17.5 from you if the D4 is indeed injured.

I assumed that if we was running an option rotor, that it would be noted, but just want to make sure.

I'll know the status of my D4 tomorrow night after practice.
I don't think the D41s gives up anything to the Motiv as far as speed/power is concerned, but the Motiv looks to be more driveable. ..smoother down low. The D4 is more of an on/off switch out of the tight corners.
Also, looking at the Motiv, it looks like the stator is positioned close to the front of the motor. Would be good for weight centralization in the car.
I hope Paul gets the 10.5 on the ROAR list. My WGT car is lacking power big time with the killshot. :/

Paul ran the high torque rotor, as did I. Not quite sure about Craig or Robbie. I timed at 50 and geared at 4.05 and the car had great rip and top end.
