sintered rotors

[andys]

Anyone up on these ? My question is, if I put the new sintered rotor in my novak 6.5 brushless motor, will it still have the performance as a regular 6.5 motor, similarly, if i put one into my 4.5, will it still have the same performance characteristics as a 4.5 ?

Is it simply more efficient, but essentially the same performance, or am I missing something, I read on the Novak site they run cooler and the braking effect is better. If it means the speedo / motor will run cooler, but essentially have the same performance than I might get a couple, anyone ?

they run cooler, better brakes and more power with the benifit of not effected by heat and dont fail as easy

I seem to recall reading somewhere that they will be in Feb ?

So, do they not alter the chracteristics of the motor you put them in as regards spec, with brushless is it the exact opposite to brushed, i.e the can dictates the spec of the motor, rather than the arm ?

Andy, 2nd of April they are legal.

I believe they make the motor more powerfull, but by how much I'm not sure.

PS, still got your ProCat part

I have been running the sintered rotor in my 5.5 for last two meeting's, you notice lot more punch and top end, runs lot cooler and the brake's are far stronger. These will be legal for the nationals.
The rotors can go into any of the diff motors, so i would say that the can determines the wind etc...
