Extreme Flights New Motor

Finally got my XPWR 60CC motor, well it's on its way. Going to go in my new EF 94" MXS.

Nice! Look forward to hearing how it works out.

Me too! Bigger electrics is something that "lures" me to having more big boxes in the shop! Ok Gas does too. I guess I just like having BIG boxes in the shop . Extreme Flight Owners Club on FB has good info directly from Chris Henson.

Well originally I was going to go with the Hacker Q80-6L motor... That motor would of made this bird truly Extreme, maybe even a bit to extreme. "Probably Not" HeHe. Anyway, like everyone else I really don't like the price of the hacker motors they are just so dang spendy. So I started looking around for an alternative, long story short I started talking with Tim at NorthWestRC and he convinced me to wait it out for the XPWR 60 and provided me with a link to a YouTube video of it being tested on the 91" Yak54-EXP I was impressed how well it thew that plane around with such ease and the punch out from a hoover and how cool it ran. Come to find out Tim is going to be running this motor in his 94 MXS when I found that out it pretty much sold me on it. All I had to do was to wait and see how much they would sell for ($349.95) when I saw that it locked it in for me. So I'll be running that motor with the CC-Phoenix EDGE 160 HV and Falcon Carbon Fiber 24x10 - 24x13 props. Should be quite a nice plane.

Comon, lets be different and allow links. It would be so much cooler if this forum could be different and free.

True but RCGroups is a fanboy site, it's ok if you want to stroke each other's ego about a few products and bag out other products but mention the wrong product you are toast. FG is ok, they are a little set in their ways but it is full of pretty good information.
