HK 5020 motor?

[trillian]

Just curious what you guys thoughts are on the HK 5020 / 450 and 520 motor? The specs look good and I am seeing them at attractive prices lately but I never see it mentioned these days.

(This would be for a 700 size heli)

There are not many helis with wide enough frames to fit a 50mm motor. I had a 5025-450 in my Logo 600SE. Had to shave the plastic frames around the motor to get it in. I don't have a 600SE any more so I'm not using the motor. I've read that if you get it rewound in 1.5mm YY then it's a real power house.

They're fab! Pulls like a train and my heavy old Raptor 90SE FBL E fairly rockets into the sky. Not cheap, but very good!
