[NSRCA-discussion] E-Question HXT motors

Anthony:



What I tell people starting in electric pattern is to find someone with
a setup that works and is in your price range and copy it exactly.  It
could be Axi, Hacker, Pletty etc but don't try something new until you
get a handle on the whole electric thing.  Trying a new setup while
trying to learn the electric thing at the same time could be
disappointing.  



I did try one of those HXT motors a while ago on a test plane and it
had good power but higher power consumption than the Axi for example. 
Only flew it a few times so I don't have any longevity info for you.

        As I am doing my research into the world of electric
pattern I have come across the HXT line of electric motors. It appears
that the HXT 63-64 B230 is a fraction of the cost of the comparable AXI
motor ($60 vs.$200+) with very similar performance numbers, physical
dimensions, etc. In fact, according to the info I saw it is even 12
grams lighter.
         
        Being a realist I have to ask the question; what's the
catch? Will it burn out after three flights, does it run excessively
hot, does it smell like bacon? I don't get it. Is it just a cheap
Chinese knock off, a very good value, or both? What I really want to
know is, is the motor viable for F3A pattern?
         
        I appreciate any information you guys can provide,
particularly from those who have used them or seen them run.
         
        Thanks a bunch
        Anthony
