Anybody remember Hacker?
Kinda curious how they compare to castles line of brushless motors. Anybody had experience with both?
Im in the process of building an emaxx and am torn between castles 2200kv and a large hacker motor... of some sort. I think the 2200kv would outrun the C50 series so I have to see what else they have.
C50XL here http://www.aero-model.com/Hacker-Brushless-C50-8XL.aspx
It is roughly the same dimension as the castle, is it worth the extra dough?
I doubt it would be $150 faster but if your looking for that extra bit of performance???

Can't speak for the Hacker stuff but I run the Castle MMM esc with the 2200k motor on 6s and it's ridiculous. I've shattered drive cups, broken steel shafts, blown up tranny gears, and shredded 1/8th scale diffs. I should probably drop down to 5 or 4s but that much power and performance is just too much fun!

i had an original hacker setup. the newer castle stuff is much more efficient. I prefer my tekin setup over the castle stuff but nothign wrong with castle at all.
