I'm gonna email him

Might have to try that too. I'll have to make a washer. Don't have any on hand.
I emailed Jan. Said i could send them my stock cable.

AND...the reason cables break when you know you have not over powered it IS they rust from the inside out. Why...look at the gunk you keep getting. Once they get wet they can hold water at the core until they let go....another + for the wire drives!

Do the wire drives work in curved stuffing tubes, If yes is it a case that you have to remove the liner to give more clearance to give a gentler curve to the wire drive + useing a thin enough wire shaft so as for it to run in a curved tube ok. Thanks Martin.

[Jeff Wohlt]

Not too gentle but yes. You can use a smaller stuffing tube for wire. Very easy to use.

I take it that the wire is piano wire ( music wire ), Can i ask what the strut shaft is made from ( the 3/16" part ) & how the two are joined. Thanks.

[Jeff Wohlt]

Mine are SS shafts and I use loctite. Thousands sold. You caqn get them from Octura but I drill mine deeper and the bore is key to holding power.

[JPriami]

well if you start making them that will work in a spartan you'll have people buying them Jeff.

Bit of change of subject, Could you talk me through how you set up the T180 esc useing the programe card. Havant actually got the card yet but an completally new to useing the card. What do you need to put into the card for say the setup that you use as an example. Thanks Martin.

[Jeff Wohlt]

Spartan is not a problem at all.

[Jeff Wohlt]

Just get me a shaft length total and then the stub length...I assume another 4mm shaft?

[JPriami]

Total length of flex and stub shaft all together 15 ¼”
Length from end (where collet goes) of the flex to start of the stub is 11 ½” And the flex is .150 diameter
Stub is 3 ¾” long total
From where the flex goes into the & stub begins the shaft diameter of the stub is .195 for a length 2.60” then it recesses down to .187 diameter for a length of .700” then the rest is threads for .400”.
Also the end of the flex where the collet goes is soldered.

You want go know how the card works like hooking it up or what info to enter in the card?

Both would be very helpfull as ill be useing a 4082 motor & T180 esc in one of the HK deep v hulls. Thanks Martin.

[JPriami]

Martin,
Depends on what 4082 you plan on using. different KV motors have different winds to them. Y or D wind. That will tell you what degree of timing you set for the motor on the ESC. And you can select what number of lipo cells you will be running on the esc. Also a LVC cut voltage. Seems like there is something else I cant remember. Oh yeah running mode. Forward only or forward and reverse.

The program card will have two ports. One for the esc and one optional for a battery but if you have the esc plugged into you packs the bec will power the program card.
