Default Need a Hacker substitute for an AXi motor ?

I'm looking at the AXi 2208-34 that's used in the Zomby published on page 58, of the June issue of Model Aviation. It uses 2 Lipo's for power. My LHS carries Hacker. So what would be the Hacker model number equivalent, that would also run on 2 Lipo's, that I could use as a substitute for the AXi in the construction article ? I'm also hoping that the Hacker is equal in motor quality ?Please help this newbie ?zak

Here's a link to a comparison chart of most of the popular motors. I will also give my biased opinion that Scorpion motors are an excellent motor.

...also, among popular brands, similar weight and similar KV is going to be a similar motor. That's true when comparing apples to apples, like Axi to Hacker. When comparing good brands against generic, unbranded stuff, be careful.
