"The first of its kind and the start of many to come!
The new P2627 uses die-cast/CNC endbells to reduce cost while staying balanced and low in weight. Produced in India this new range of motors are both economic, strong and perform as expected".

This is the description of motor on HK site for your cunsumption.

Not really, turnigy is just a "brand" that HK has made up.. They buy products from other companies in bulk (=cheap) and then just stick their label on it.. They don't really manufacture anything.. (Its the same way ***istan "manufactures" its weapons by sticking "Made is ***istan" labels on chinese weapons)

Thats the company I was talking about earlier..

xxkrishxx · September 30, 2010, 11:37:45 PM

Anyone tried tat company's product? Do they sell in retail also?

traxxrc1 · September 30, 2010, 11:49:13 PM

what i meant was that most turnigy productions are sold by HK

tg · October 01, 2010, 01:03:01 AM

But microbrushless at Bangalore does not indicate HK/Turnigy as a dealer. Check http://www.microbrushless.com/dealers.htm. Also, a tiny BL motor at microbrushless costs some where around 2K while a similar motor can be got for 700/- at RCForall or RCD and most LHSes.

:-) Thats what it is...
there had been a thread earlier on this thing.. the general opinion is Microbrushless.com are the manufacturers..

tg · October 01, 2010, 11:35:34 AM

Have spoken to the folks at microbrushless last year, they have never really sold their BL motors locally to modellers. Its virtually only industrial use.

corsair · June 28, 2011, 01:28:18 PM

According to HK this is produced in India!!! Would love to know where

OMG there address "1037, Banashankari II Stage," mine is 1084, they are just like my neighbours .

ujjwaana · June 28, 2011, 01:55:12 PM

Such a paradox that the Indian LHS are not procuring motors from them and save so much on double-taxation.
If that motor costs $8 to us, think how much the manufacturer would be selling them to HK for!!!

Akshayb · June 28, 2011, 02:08:10 PM

I have seen this long back, cheater king is selling it from at least 2 years.

is also made in India.

By the way, if you see the stocks are all "0". As the engines are no longer co-branded with Seidel. Evolution has brought (I guess so) the rights and thus the these engines are now UMS+Evolution. Check Horizion Hobby site for these engines
