Default motor question

I have an x3l set up with a hobbywing 60a esc and that xnova 1570(?!) kv motor, set up as a rather low speed flyer. Rapidly becoming one of my favorites. I wanted to build a 360mm version, and it appears that xnova no longer makes it.

Anyone out there can recommend me a comparable motor, or a good one for "low" ~2600-2700 rpm speed flying?

Or, anyone have one of those xnova for sale without too much wear?

You have the 2618-1580 and want something different? I thought this motor was awesome for the X3 tri-blade I used to have.

Either that, or they have been out of stock all over the place for a while. I last flew the x3l about 10 days ago and looked a little then, but only started thinking of the second build/motor swap again last night.

Looks like if it is shaft A you're good.
