I and another club member have done some direct swaps in monos & hydros & we both concluded that the TP motors out perform the Leopards.
After a 5 lap race the motors are cooler, the boat was faster & there was a bit more capacity left in the battery. That's with the same props of course. And over several different runs.See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

tp has made a few changes to their motors and now they're really putting out some good numbers while not blowing apart. I have only used the 5850 motors quality is better than a leopard 5692. I can say the tp maintained 91% efficiency under load in my boat, making the rated 12,000 watts. temperatures stayed at 125 degrees.
I can't say how the leopard would hold up under similar conditions I never ran high rpm with one. Either motor is good for the money but I'd go TP based on my results and the numbers achieved by othersComment
