Just to clarify, both 24k motors are a "short stack". The KO has more material in the stack though.

The 24K features a smaller blank with less material in the stator that produces more power than the 24KO, but is easier to heatsoak. This motor is faster than the KO initially, but depending on gearing, timing and load it could fall off more at the end of the run when compared to the KO. Because of this, the standard 24K is recommended for blinky applications.

Thank you for the perfect explanation!

I ended up getting the 17.5 24K for my RB6 blinky and ran it this week. It's very fast geared 72/28 @ 55 can.

I like the 10.5t it has a lot of punch. Let 2 people drive it at our big race today and they thought it was a 7.5t 8.5t

My temp on the motor from my reading at 142 off the tekin RSX esc software.

Gearing

2.6 buggy ratio

78/23

Great motor.

The ROAR forum only shows the KO approved at http://roarracing.org/4rmb/showthrea...V1806-08-24-15

It seems ROAR has only approved (5) of the (6) 24K motors.

Modified/10.5 Spec Trincorp Trincorp REVTECH 24K-REV1800
Modified/13.5 Spec Trincorp Trincorp REVTECH 24k-O
Stock/17.5 Spec Trincorp Trincorp REVTECH 24K-REV 1802
Stock/17.5 Spec Trincorp Trincorp REVTECH 24K-O
Stock/21.5 Spec Trincorp Trincorp REVTECH 24K-REV1803

Not sure what they are doing but it looks like the 13.5 24k has not been approved, yet. Also do not see approval for the certified versions (1801XX and 1802XX).

It is possible the vendor did not submit them to ROAR for approval.

Sent a message to the ROAR admin and he does not know the answer, but he said that he has submitted this question before to the technical director and has yet gotten a response.

So I have sent another message to the director himself, waiting for a reply. Because the certified motors are not on the list either I don't want to buy a motor and it not be approved.

i wouldn't think the certified motors would need approval. there is nothing different about them from an off the shelf D4. they have the same components, the certified version just uses parts (stator/rotor) that meet a higher standard as tested.

You would think? But past history the certifieds get listed just all other motors.

Also just received word that the 13.5 24k was submitted on the 15th and is awaiting approval.

That top 5% is from that batch that just came in. Not saying every batch is gonna be the same. Batch #4 could be worse that the ones on the hobby shop shelf!
