Muchmore Fleta ZX V2 Specter outlaw stock motor

Muchmore have introduced their new Fleta ZX V2 Specter brushless outlaw stock motor. It builds on the proven ZX V2 setup but features a special short stack stator for reduced internal resistance and a sintered rotor with the combination of both being good for up to 35 percent more power output compared to traditional stock motors while delivering a maximum in terms of RPM and torque. In addition the 12.3×5.0×24.2Z MR-FZR27TiZ rotor with titanium shaft makes for a lower rotation mass, resulting in razor-sharp throttle response. Other features include Grade 5 ball bearings, an aluminium endplate for improved heat dissipation as well as silver-plated solder tabs. The motor does not comply with ROAR and EFRA rules and is available in 13.5T, 17.5T and 21.5T windings.
