Re: FP 2011 (00801-0673) versus 9015 power

update: You can sure tell when the higher power, higher kv motor is installed. The wheels turned way faster (due to higher KV) and the motor ran significantly hotter (more current draw: had to install fan), ended up gearing the shooter speed down. More is not necessarily
always better
