Its 780kv. If you look in the black title bar it describes it as "2028-780kv motor specs" Its also a 57mm dia can. Which probably means we will need another new size cooling can. The Leopard wont work. Thats going to be a serious chunk of alum stock before turning!

i have tried the 1515 and the 1717 and they have been great..and yes this hobby is stupid money..but you gotta pay to play

[Alexgar]

i have a couple 1515 and 1415 but havent really moved up to the three foot plus range

I have a 51" FG Shovelnose that I still need to build. This motor might be exactly what I am looking for. A 2230 would be nice but this motor really cuts down on building costs leaving more for other things ( like lipos!).

I believe they are made by the same company
And this big Castle was first advertised at 750kv about a month ago

Since I am a Leopard dealer I receive some info from time to time, and I`m pretty sure there is a good reason why the Leopard sales agent states that their motors are similar in qualety and performance to the Castle motors... Don`t you agree?

And I also found an interesting statement on another website:
According to Kershaw Designs, the group at Leopard Hobbies has been the secret manufacturer behind a lot of the big names in brushless systems. Now they are taking all of that experience and putting it into their own line of motors. Leopard Hobbies has a large range of brushless motors for all kinds of applications from up to 1/5 scale electrics. Most of the motors are available in multiple Kv ratings so finding a match for your needs shouldn’t be too hard. Check out the Kershaw Designs web site for more info about these motors

I've delt with Dan a kd and he is kinda a joke
the reason they are so similar, is possibly they are built by the same company

Aha, I see. Don`t know him.
Yup, you may be right on that one. Wondering if I should buy a Castle motor and brake it down to see and measure... I mean 300 gallups isn`t that much when you are really curious
