            Looks to me like the equivalent to the leopard 5692, which is already amazingly similar to the castles.

              Jackets are not a problem if you dont mind waiting a couple of weeks. They have been in and out of stock since the big castle sale. I'm sure I will keep them as a active product for at least another year or so.

                If I eventually build a DF29 or equivalent on 4S...is the 1512 1800KV better or the 1518 1800KV?

                Or should I just pony up a couple more bucks and go with a 1515 1Y or a 4074 2200KV?

                  This is info from Patrick's on the motor dimensions and also for the new Mamba XL speed control.

                          All motors will work well. The 1512 has an 80 amp rating so you can get away with a 120 amp esc. The 1515 is probably the perfect motor for 4s. But its more than double the cost. I would opt for the 1518 and run it on 4-5s with a t-120. Probably overkill but you won't have any overheating issues and you can always use that combo in another larger hull later. JMO
