German company CS Electronic have introduced their new CSX V2 540-class modified and stock electric brushless motors. Based on the previous CSX the V2 variants offer improved performance, lower energy consumption, lower operation temperatures and a lower weight. At the same time the power curve and drivability have been improved. This was achieved by utilising a new internal design and Ti magnet material. The modified motor is available in 4.0T to 8.5T specification while the stock variant comes in 10.5T to 25.5T windings.
Reedy have announced a hi-torque rotor option for the popular Sonic S-Plus Spec motor range. Because the rotor is produced using high-strength material, low-end torque and brake strength are improved with a reduction in fade during a race. The Hi-Torque rotor comes balanced for smooth operation and is easily identified by the part number laser etched on the shaft and its distinctive blue ring.
