This just caught my eye, I have not looked too closely yet.

I see its suggested for helis & fixed wing..... so where do they get the water supply from????

Hmmmm..
"It is used of brushless motor electron speed regulator with 30A working current and 2~3 lithium batteries packet and provides powerful power for kinds of small helicopters, foam plane, navigation plane and fixed wing aircraft. You can order any favorable appearance and colorful colors."

I see they are 'based' in L.A. ("home of the entertainment and night life industry" :eek: ) so i guess it must be something in the L.A. water supply...

Brushless motors can be used any many applications, Iam using a brushless motor in my BOAT and it the same motor that my brother heli came stock with. Brushless motor require less amps when run in air rc, its alot easier to move the plane threw the air then it is to push the boat in the water. THIS is a brushless motor with the water cooling jacket built in the motor, if you decide to use it in boats, then no other unit is to be added to cool the motor, this saves weight. IF you use it in air application, the unit are usualy cool by air circulation.

Its a really high KV to use for an airplane, you would have to gear it, or put it in a plane using a very small diameter prop. A radiator(like a warbird would have) and an electric water pump would make it an awsome scale set up...but past that, its a boat motor, not an airplane set up.

These things happen everywhere: some 'moron', not impared by knowledge of any kind, copies and pastes along...

It's an ideal motor for my 7 cell, 2S monohulls, they run very nicely on these motors, cool too, thanks to the watercooling.
