what the difference....

Got my SV27R yesterday.

The battery trays have been replaced with Velcro strips. The retrieve hook is attached with two screws and is removable and there is no hole in the cowling or the 'black box' for the antenna which I presume is now internal.

Can you tell me if the "R" is offered without the radio gear?

so in another thread (SV27R videos) GrimRacer mentioned that the new motor has lighter "caugging/cogging" which makes it easier to turn by hand, smoother on the water, easier to handle, and faster.
I have the BJ26 BL as well as the old SV27 and the BJ26 motor is very easy to turn compared to the SV, but it can't spin as large of props as my SV. It just doesn't seem to pack the same punch as the SV.
So will the new motor require smaller props and rev higher than the old motor?
