I like the look, and I like that you guys are here helping racers, but you gotta tell me the numbers are VERY conservative or something.
The kv rating is not comparable from company to company only within a specific company. So I would not worry about it. 10.5 is 10.5. Personally I would stick with tekin but that's just me.
