I think it's interesting that Hacker went with a front mounted outrunner. It would make sense that their intention was to have a C50 replacement, that's actually a pretty smart idea. The reason I am scratching my head though, more so than usual, is that most people have gone away from the front mounted motors without rear support. I am looking at the rear of the motor and don't see provisions for any support...

I was wondering the same, but then I got to thinking that Pletty's have been mounted with rear support only for several years and there is no difference from a structural stand point whether a motor is front mounted or rear mounted assuming the moment length is the same. Anyways, an intriguing design none the less.
