any way to visiually identify which brushless motor i have?it has the labels scratched off.i can take it apart if nessecary.it has sintered rotor with smooth front endbell but ribbed rear endbell???

if you pull the endbell, and slide the purple ring off - ALL the ones I have are written on the side of the motor (under that purple ring)

This is just a written mark from like a SHARPIE PEN. Otherwise, I.D. can be difficult w/o a LCR meter...

Which style solder tabs does it have? The later TABS or the earlier circuit board w/ holes? (I believe only the ss4300 and ss5800's came with the holes type solder tabs...but don't quote me on that...I'm still learning the I.D. thing and I've bought several of each to familiarize myself w/ these)

I have a Velocity 5.5 that has the soldter tabs with the holes. I called Novak about it and they said they probably ran out of the newer style tabs when assembling that motor so they used what they had. So solder tabs is not a positive identification.
