6 pole motors?

[T.S.Davis]

So ahhhhhh..........Who makes 6 pole motors? In the 3656 range.

[Heaving Earth]

Aquacraft I believe

[gsbuickman]

Hello T.S. the Aquacraft 3656 motor is 1800kv (rpm)

[Diesel6401]

Both gold can AQ motors are. The 1800kv & the 2030 kv.

The Proboat 1500kv & 1800kv motors are both 6 pole as well.

Sorry guys. I should have been more specific. Proboat and Aquacraft "sell" 6 pole motors in their RTR's. I knew that part. The companies that supply the motors for them are owned by their parent companies. Proboat buys from Dynamite. Both are Horizon. AQ buys from Electrify which are both Great Planes. Smart way to do it.

I was hoping to find who "manufacturers" 6 pole motors. I thought someone might know.

Call it a quest for a better option.

Tenshock makes some 6 pole 1/8 scale higher kv motors. as well as some 1/5 scale 8 pole motors

I forgot about those. They do 4,6,and 8 pole.

Terry,

There is also "Himax"... That's the 6-Pole 3650 motors that the 1/10th guys have used in this area for some time.

I think that Neu makes some higher pole count stuff too...

[T.S.Davis]

I could bother Neu but I don't believe they're interested in a production run.

Why a 6 pole motor? Why an inrunner? In Europe they have a certain criteria for motors in certain classes but, they don't limit it to specific manufacturers.

There are so many motors out there that could be included but, the parameters or rules of the spec classes in NAMBA and the like are quite limiting I think, just my opinion that doesn't matter too much. Tenshock are cool but, not far from a NEU.

Personally I think limiting spec classes to the motors that be was a gunshot to the foot and I sorta saw this coming.

..............................Ray, I put the dots in to let what you typed sink into where it was typed from. haha The rule set for the P "Limited" class are kind of limiting? I'm teasing you. You know I love ya.

Shooting for 6 pole to match the limited spec.

There isn't really anything wrong with the specification in my opinion. The problem (again, my opinion) is that the manufacturers aren't really responding to the needs of their clientele. That being us of course. All the motors fail in the exact same spot.

We have to remember, the spec is intended to give RTR boats a place to race without having to reinvent their setups to be competitive. There are some that will argue that was not the case but having had a hand in the drafting of that rule I can tell you that it was. It works too. That can't be argued.

Team TFL!!?? WTH! LOL...

I here you Terry and Love ya as well but, it seems that in Europe they have spec classes nailed down and for quite some time too. I don't think they have the same problems with their motor selections for their classes because they use motors tried and true by manufacturers that have consistency.

Has any barked up the AQ tree regarding the 1800kv and 2030kv motors, mainly the 2030? I have one 1800kv that likes to get toasty compared to the others I have which leads me to think there are many variances to the motors.

There has to be a solution and I thank you for keeping up the battle.

Mega Motors in CZ make awesome 6 pole motors, have been around since the brushed days and are not going anywhere anytime soon. 6pole motors have limited KVs available for each size, but if they do the KV you want there is not much that will beat one.

In the south west region of England we used the mega 22/30/2 1780kv as our 12/4 cell spec motor for years very successfully, they decided to go any motor and follow Naviga rules and allow any motor recently, I decided to keep the same motor but go 6s and it was ballistic but still cool running to many peoples surprise, but it turns out that I can not get the run time with a prop big enough to push my hull, and I need slightly lower KV in my heavy boat, which has meant dropping to 4 poles, and putting the Mega in my Rallygame car which again is ballistic, but I will build a lighter boat and trying it again on 6s next year.

That is true Paul and they are Very nice motors.

That is true Paul and they are Very nice motors. A 22-30-2 1920kv would be cool.
