The sintered rotor is much narrower than the other two, presumably because the magnets are stronger. It leaves a bigger air gap between the rotor and stator which seems to allow the motor to run cooler.
BRL is allowing the sintered rotor as a legal upgrade in their 4300's.

4300 Class, the most fun yet!!!
I was having thermal issues with the old standard rotor (old style motor with solder holes instead of tabs) I could not get the car to run anything over a 28.5mm and that was on the previous wide open track.
I upgraded the endbell and upgraded rotor (not sintered) I was running a 29.4mm or so (new tighter track) I had one thermal Saturday night and it was after taking a 1.5 lap warmup and finished the race then completed one whole lap afterwards and the car quite crossing the line on the extra lap.
(I did not get a chance to temp the motor after that one) In terms of how the car was I had TQ when we started the main (thanks to Charlie's thermal :-) ) The results of the main did not show it, but the car was fast, just hit a few too many things because of the driver having some "red mist" after 1st turn debacle.
I hope to try the Sintered rotor tonight and compare it to the "upgraded rotor" to get some baseline for the Delta in gearing between the two.
Will see everybody in a few hours. I hope Billy or Lance or somebody has some 6 degree C hubs as my "red mist" came with some required parts replacement and my new parts aren't here yet
looking forward to it. Cya soon.

I'll get one for my son, I would think we would need at least 2 others, cheap is the name of the game and I've seen these things take a beating.
