The lastest shootout I read in R/C Car Action reported the Orion Revolution V2 being easier on the comm than even the Team Checkpoint motor. The comparison was between the Epic 12T flatwire, Epic 12T roundwire, Orion Revolution V2 12T, and the Team Checkpoint 12T. All were double wire. The Team Checkpoint had the most rpm but the least amount of torque. The Orion V2 had the most torque but moderate rpm, and the Epic motors fell right in the middle of the road comparison wise. So you need to know what you need. With a tight track I would take the Orion and on a Wide flowing track with long straights I would go the Team Checkpoint route. Both are great motors IMO.
