Which Neu Motor?

[bbagle1]

I really like everything I have heard about neu motors but after looking at their website for 30 minutes I still had no idea which one would be right for the hurricane. I know it will be one of the 15xx series motors. I would like to have something capable of delivering 2000watts on 8 lipo cells but will work with the stock gearing on 6 cells for now. Does anyone know which model would work?

If you're running an HV setup you can use the 1910H/1.5Y (680KV). That's what I'm using in my 10S A123 setup (33V).

1910 requires modification to the existing linkage as it will not fit the space between them. I have not completed yet but here is a picture of Neu 1509H/2Y/F

It requires trimming around the motor on the canopy.

I can't comment on the performance as I have not flown it yet.

Correct if you're using anything other than the Custom Heli Parts CF frameset (which has a direct-to-swash configuration, eliminating the bellcranks). Even if you do use the CHP frame, you'll still need to mod the motor mount slightly to widen the screw slots -- the 1910 has larger diameter mounting screws. Here's what it looks like though:
