The Feigao's fit, and perform better than the outrunners that are stock on the newer EKOS. The 540 size is definitely out. Limited to 380's or replace the mounts.
      I can help ya if you want to replace the mounts. I have some that are designed for use in that hull that epoxy in fairly easily. Water cooled too. Would have to change the couplers for the 5mm shafts on 540 motors...

      Just a thought.

        Thanks. I'm going to try that. So arc 2800kv 380's and x442's. I like it!

                Should I get the ARC 28mm-47mm 2800kv's? Can I run those 4s each? If so great.
                Also does ARC have a big nasty motor to replace the Leopard 4082 for my Genesis cat single drive?

                      I don't understand the question. The batteries are 4000mAh 40-50c 4s. I also use four 2s, 5000mAh, 50c packs. Two wired in series per side for 4s.
