    Ok... currently I am running a Quantum 4125-560 motor in my goblin 570. I upgraded it from a scorpion 4025-1100 6s motor. And while it has more power, I have never been hugely impressed by it... could be because its now a bit heavier, even tho I upped the head speed by 100-200 rpm when I put in the quantum, I just remember not being wowed by it....

    anyway, always looking at other alternatives... but to be honest I'll see what difference the blackline blades make, as they should be a bit stiffer..

    the two motors I am looking at are

    KDE 550XF 565 G3 - http://www.kdedirect.com/KDE550XF565G3.html
    you need to watch the walk through of the G3 line... -


    Xnova 4025-560 - http://www.xnovamotors.com/xnova-4025-560kv/

    Not saying I am going to go out and buy one... but its on my mind.... other than those two what else would be a contender? not really interested in the pyro.. but I could be convinced...

    Thoughts?

      Well thank you @3dmick. You do get many points for having the gonads to actually try however. And this helicopter IS unique in my graveyard - it looks so pretty with the big motor sticking out...

      Ahhh yes @Dale Worthington that may be true... for now anyway. I was tired of picking on @BeLoWseaLeVeL and @3dmick was pushing the boundaries - its fun playing with @3dmick`s goblin here in Heli-Hell!

      I went through that on my HD500 @smakmeharder dropped the kv from 1000 to 900 and went up 2 teeth on the pulley.

      Ive done the hardest wall I can dish up with it running no gov and it hasn't stripped a belt.
      And they're pretty low profile teeth

      Well at least SAB parts are 20% off at the moment. Couldn't have happened at a cheaper possible time for you to fix. ;)

      LOL - so I see and I do apologise. Before you had the missed call I had a quick conversation with crash - I told him I was having a slow week and he said he'd fix that for me.... ooops
      Must have been a heluva crash......
