New motor
hi guys, just a quick question. Has any1 used one of these motors or know anything about them - Orion Vortex Pro Race Brushless Sensored Motor 9.5T. It comes in various turns. It caught my eye as its on sale. Was £95 now £49. I currently run a 6.5 turn Schumacher motor with the power turned down 20% with I'm doin ok with it so not in any rush to buy a new one motor as i said, at half price i just thought I'd ask.

Hi Craig.
6.5 isn't ideal for cullingworth, what with the hall being so small. Its always best to reduce the actual motor rather than turn it down. To be fair a 13.5 would probably be the ideal motor for cullingworth! Your 6.5 is really best suited for outdoors or massive indoor tracks. Having said all that though, I run a 7.5 in my car and also turn it down quite a bit. It saves me having to swap motors for different venues. I would say, if your not struggling then leave it, or if you do want a dedicated cullingworth motor go for a 13.5 or 10.5 at the most. |

yup true. when I run my 10.5 I turn it down to about 75% and its still a bit much. 7.5 is turned down a lot. not run a 13.5 in there, but my mate is going to run my B4 with one in Friday. slower is faster ;-)

i run a 10.5 and have it at about 35% it feels very slow and even Neil said it was sluggish. but i still got 23 laps in last round with very few crashes. to master going fast first you must master going slow lol.
