Default New ezrun motors?

Hi all I just received a package in the mail today and inside wasn't the old style but a new one called 17.5t 'victory'. On paper it appears to have a lower kv rating although it looks much cooler! Does anyone know about these new models, please say they're not the dreaded 380 in a 540 can rebranded.

actually they are the new batch of fullsize 540's, they still make the 380's in the 540 cans.
(the only thing "dreaded" about the 380's come from people using them in the wrong applications, great little motors for little cars)

i have a pair of the 8.5t 4000kv's on my dual bl clodbuster. they work great, run cool and have tons of tq.

They have more torque than the old ones. The 17.5t victory has only 1900kv. The 4000kv and 6000kv haved stayed the same in rpm

so true use the solid numbered motors in a few things that work very happily with them.
Its when they start putting the low turned motors in heavy trucks, and driving mostly offroad do they have issues.
