Wish I was there to see Dave Lockhart battle it out with the best of the 
best. He has certainly worked as hard if not harder than anyone I know to 
get where he is. Regardless of the outcome, he is still a champion.

Yup,
It sure is interesting!
Dave called me late last evening, to tell me how things ended up, after the 
prelims.
Needless to say, I am pleased and proud. Then I told him to hang up and get 
some sleep!
GEOMETRY FIRST!
obviously, I am quite the cheerleader.

The observation that the hacker setups have more GO than the outrunners is 
likely due to their lower "proper" operating RPM, and the bigger diameter 
prop, That improves the prop efficiency, and low speed thrust.
The effective KV on a 6.7:1 Hacker is either 186 RPM/V or 173 RPM/V, 
depending on whether it's a 13 or 14-turn winding. The AXI and Orbit 25 are 
at 250 RPM/V. That's why they swing 19" diameters, rather than 22".
The best KV, so far, for an outrunner is the Cyclon 160, at 205. Maybe an 
outrunner with fewer turns, and a higher KV, like 350, can be combined with 
a 2:1 belt reduction. Belts are quiet, but useless at the shaft RPM of a 
hacker. This combo could negate the inrunners slight electrical efficiency 
advantage, and the huge prop efficiency advantage.

Just guessing, but I put some of the motors used...
