So I got tired of waiting for Steven to get in some 1500 or 1600kv LBP4082 motors so I got it from Himodel along with the recommended LB40WCJ-70mm cooling jacket. But since the wires come out of the motors side rather then rear the jacket is to long to fit. I read something about trimming down the black plastic retainer at the base of the wires but I wonder if this is a good idea and if so how do I do it. I did email Leopard Hobby and they said I had bought the car motor and that the boat motor does have the wires out the rear allowing for the 70mm jacket. But when I checked their website I could not find a specific "boat" motor so I don"t know what to think. Thoughts?
