I think these should work, they worked for me & I am not a current member.

There's not much that can be done with the new 25.5 motor specs. It defines minimum IR, stator length, type of wind...everything. They will all be very similar in performance. Only thing you can hope for is to buy an old Novak and hope you get one that is outside the parameters of the new stated spec as those motors weren't monitored but are grandfathered. The only thing motor manufacturers can do at this point is try to push the envelope and make motors right at the 101 milliohm cutoff. Dangerous to do as a production run causes variations that can make a motor illegal right off the production floor if they build it too close.

Newer motor are using new processed to get motors in the 1750 range motiv (12.5mm)
Only other rotors that come close is the TSR @ 1650ish (12.5mm)
So given this info I would be looking at TSR/motiv for their new style motors bacause there new can design is much lighter and rotor strength is much higher than other brands at the moment ... That's why those 2 companies would be my first choice

All this is true . But the one veritable companies can do is improve on rotor strength .. the Novak rotors are old technology 1200-1300ish rotors (12.3mm)
Newer motor are using new processed to get motors in the 1750 range motiv (12.5mm)
Only other rotors that come close is the TSR @ 1650ish (12.5mm)

D4 is not on the list.
Motiv
Maclan
Trinity 24K
Hobbywing
Fantom
Team Scream
Tekin Gen 3
All must have 12.3 rotor. List gives the part numbers for approved motors. I am undecided right now between the Fantom, Motiv or the Maclan. I have seen a couple reliability issues with TSR motors. Maclan is probably a bit slower but runs super cool and is also the cheapest. VERY happy with my Maclan 17.5.
