[Punisher 67]

No Neil just the prototype motor itself.....whats so special about it

oh, my error.

Joe,
Very interesting,please keep us informed how the testing goes.
Like Peter said, making one like the current 2215 and keeping the cost reasonable is a challange. There are some things on the drawing board Steven and I are working on.
Thanks
Dave

Joe Can you elaborate a little bit more on your prototype motor Please

well I think I recognize the motor to be either a 2200 or 2650 kv castle neu motor to start with

the green one's with the heat fins

I am trying to borrow a Mamba Monster (Neu 1515 - 2200kv) for a test and would like to fit a water jacket. I'd like to know if you come up with anything guys. Thanks.

PS. The case diameter is 39.98 and the air cooling fin Diameter is 41.78

It is a prototype motor for 1/5th scale trucks/buggies like the HPI Baja/Baja 5T. It's a 2025/1Y 900kv. I will definitely let you all know how the cooling works. Tested it with a bucket of water, an aquarium pump, and put a load on it...works great. Can't wait to try it in the boat (Outlaw 7.5 from TT)...nearly everything is together. Waiting for batteries, Steve donated an adapter (8mm to .187...thanks again Steve!!!), and then I'm ready to go. Using Hydra 240HV. Made the motor mount myself. Will be putting vids up of the first run for sure. :)

8mm shaft, criminy, that thing sounds like a monster. What does it say on the side of it, Campbell's Soup :)

Peter, your stuff takes a long time because you make it so beautiful! Why not just stop at the lathe step and install the inlet/outlet rather than making the nice longitudinal grooves?

I'll have to get a pic of it in my hand. Most definitely a beast of a motor. You've never seen a 25lb+ Baja 5T til you've seen one popping a wheelie. And no...I am most definitely NOT kidding.

Joe you must be referring to the 2225/1Y not a 2025

[Joe Ford]

Nope...it's a prototype motor. Our own. 2025/1Y...etched right in the endbell of the motor. Will post a pic when I get home. :)

EDIT: Here you go. Some more pics. Gives a better idea of the size.

Still looking for a 2230 cooling jacket??????????

[Joe Ford]

Can make your own like I did, but I think that's about it. Cost me about $10...Ace Hardware is where I got the stuff for it. Bring the motor with you...they had a bunch of sizes so I went with the one that slid well over the motor, but not too loose. Hopefully Steve is working on nice metal one...going to be a popular motor for the big boats that are being converted now.

Thats awesome Joe! Thats why they pay you the big bucks! Wonderful creativity.
