While 2007/2008 indoor season is going at full temp, i have one more great news and one more top product to add to review section. Famous and crazy German pilot Manuel Nubel (Well known Knuffel author and VPP wizard) with help of Mr. Holger Lambertus, create company www.slowflyworld.de that make and sell best electric products for today RC models. Im happy to add Slowflyworld to my sponsor list. And first product i will talk about is new motor DW 6/21-Ag.
I pick DW 6/21-Ag since it is lighter than my last year VPP motor DW8/18, and can deliver up to 500g trust with modern 20-30C lypo packs such as Flight Power EVO20 2S 400mah ! According to manufacturers this motor is wound with a silver-wire, that is made especially for it. The electric conductivity of silver is 10% less than of copper, which gives us less resistance and less electric loss.
