[SJFE]

Thanks for the suggestion. I will have to look into where the closest shop is.

that 1700 rpm 8xl should move my fdm 32 alot better than the fegiao 9xl did with a bigger prop on 12 cells, so many options

I just ordered the 8XL and jacket. I can't wait to pop on the 45mm cf on 16 cells. :)

Max voltage for these motors is: 36 volts

is this all that we know about these motors? haven't seen any detailed specs anywhere?

Max voltage for these motors is: 36 volts

I would proceed with caution. With certain motor kv's that's possible. UNTIL more testing is done I would keep the max rpm to 40k.

Thats why we buy these from Steven and not the other guys that sell them. He backs his products.

over on RRR there is a thread on these motors.....some people are saying they are poorly balanced and vibrate when at speed....just something you might want to check out...

Thanks for pointing that out. That thead and some others also point out some good things about the motors. The samples I tested ran well. No problems.

Also keep in mind you get what you pay for.
For $300-$500 you can get a similar Lehner or Neu motor that is perfect. To each his own.

Steven did you manage to get the Rm for each model, 8XL 10XL...?

[Steven Vaccaro]

I did not get any specs other than they ran good. I hope to use the eagle tree this weekend.

[U]I am going to run the jolly with the dpr installed next Tuesday night. We will see what I can pull out of that. Steven will you be addressing the 6mm to wire drive coupler issue? I am currently trying to locate a machine shop in my area. I hate like hell to try and drill that coupler out. If I fubar it I am hosed .[/i]
