Status: offline 		I've read so much here about going brushless and it seems everyone uses a different setup,what specs are you looking for when picking one?
One is the size of the motor? (20MM)
while looking for a brushless for my Styker plane I found this
http://www.aero-nuts.com/product_info.php?cPath=37_77&products_id=203
they also carry a step down version

Price is right if one will work.

Status: offline 		your stryker is powered by a 480 setup. you need a bigger 300W class motor and a 35A esc.
something like this warp4 motor might work.
before i'd buy, i would ask someone else who has experience with running brushless motors in strykers. they're probably hanging out in the wattflyer forums or somewhere besides here.

try the guys in this forum:

I happened to find these brushless motors while I was looking for one for the Stryker and was thinking maybe one of those two in the links would work with my Blade CP?

Status: offline 		i see, in that case, both motors should fit (20mm, 2mm shaft), but the 4600 might give too much head speed with the stock tx, and the 2800 might overheat. somewhere around 3200kV is best if you're using the stock tx. 4600 would be nice if you have the ability to adjust your throttle curve to limit RPM.
