Sounds good, don't like the sensor based Novak with the amount of problems I've had (PS 12 weeks in repair and COUNTING)

well i have the novak and its stupid fast if u wind it up and im using 1yr old battery packs, but i am having a few probs with freq dropping out since i installed it but that may be just my radio gear but havent done anything about it as im to lazy. Mongrel has one to and he has changed to a brushed motor with the gtb cause he cant handle the power lol...

I have read around a bit on the US forums. And apparently the Neo / Sphere combo in even faster, has more torque, and less problems with glitching.

Nexxus what dont you like about the sensored based Brushless motors? They arn't as fast as the non-sensored ones but they dont glitch as much (what i heard, is it true :S?)

Novak have bought out a brushless '4.5 turn' motor.

Mike, I just saw it on another RC Forum. I run stock (can't afford to run mod) so there's no point in me getting a crazy brushless unit.
