I'm so in love with my scorpion-8 on my t-rex 450 that I'm looking for an example on my e-550.
I'm running this with the stock motor and an 11t pinion for 2150 rpm's on 6 cells lipo's.
Can I use this scorpion motor:

As I calculated it with a 10t pinion I will get 2180 rpm's.

Any experience with this one?



Thanks....

I was following a thread where a guy used the 4025-12 on a 700 blade stretched heli. He mounted a fan and used lock-screws on the cap to hold it together with very good initial results. Scorpion has a heli version of this in the works and an even larger motor coming. From what I've heard, these are a good motor for the price. Maybe even a good motor at 10-15% more?
