    Big Boy Feigao 580L

    The Feigao motor has arrived. The 580L motors look rather impressive. I will have some pictures and sales info by the end of today.

      580L? A quick search show it to be 45x50 in size.

      "Ferrous loss free brushless motor, 6 poles. World first 580L size ferrous loss free BL motor."


      6-pole motor should be nice in a 45mm diameter.

      Also, the diameter larger requires a larger water jacket. Any plans of one, or will the KB45 heatsink work?
      My prop hasn't been wet in a while.

          Nope, not that one. Its a new motor, not on their site yet. 2 poles. A water jacket for it is in the works.

            Steven, does it appear to be of better quality than the KB45 series

                Lets say that we "MAY" be having a Kb45 clearance sale in the near future.

                    Steven,

                    I take it that this motor uses the same mounting bolt pattern as a say the KB45.
                    My prop hasn't been wet in a while.

                      Steven, if I removed what look like allen head screws on one end, would the Kb45 water jacket fit?
                      Or would that be a dumb move?

                            Duggie, I'm nots sure on the fit, but I will try. Even with the jacket we make the screws will have to be removed to get it to fit.

                              you finally got it Steven!
                              if needed, the rotor can be replaced.
