Feigao are really good for the money, no doubt!
I'd like to see what the new 580 does? must be pretty close to a KB as it is 45x76!

Feigao 580 motor

really?

The design of that motor is quite interesting. Joerg was speaking about it on rrr. There is an "original" of that motor that could be used in boats.

stupid question but are we really talking about the same motor?

[Steven Vaccaro]

Ha! I guess not. This is the motor I have in my feigao stuff that they call a 580.

Funny a while back I posted a picture of that motor that they sent me as a sample. It wasnt anodized or anything. I asked them to make changes. They never followed up. I guess I have to acquire about it again :-)

[Steven Vaccaro]

Here is the sample with other motors.

After a bit of cleaning...
the motor on the first picture you posted Steven seems different from the last ones, wires are very thin???
Plus the "new" one are easy serviceable with screws and rotor can be exchanged!

[Steven Vaccaro]

The chrome one is one of the first samples. I suggested to them.....

5mm shaft option.
thicker wires.
4mm mounting screws.
Lower kv motors.


I did not think of screwed end bells. Thats a good idea!

The guy who's selling them only have a 2154KV, he proposed me to test one but... 2154rpm/V is to high for our boat, don't know if other KV are available though!

I just received the data chart from Feigao.

so these are the 76mm long can style witch are not described on Feigao web site yet, do you plan to perform more test on them Steven?
a 8 turns on a 36" mono... hummmm i'd like to test!

[Steven Vaccaro]

I was thinking a 9 turn on 8s in a 40" or so boat. I will get some on my next order in a couple of weeks.

i'd like to get ahold of a 8 turn for testing, I am making a 8-10S open hydro , i will be a test subject LOL.

This should have said 9 turn.




I should have them in 4-6 weeks if they answer all my questions quickly.
