Although I have two of those Turnigy motors coming my way (they were sent today!) I still can't get over the fact that there's a bigger one out there. Keith Bradley - I might have to check your website out. The X524 will bring me my peace of mind. I'm sure of it.
25" Arrowana with Etti 2970 3300kV. RCMK Flying Cat with twin HOR Outboards. 2 x SSS 4092 2140kV. Faluga 45" with Leo 56110 620 kv on 12s.
Dam it - Sorry Howard for the comment above - I left my laptop running in our cafeteria and some of the clowns at work decided to reply to some of my posts via snoping through my emails...........
Pics aren't very good, camera sucks, I suck, lol...
I'll try later too with a better camera from the GF.
What it looks like is that the inner windings got heated up and then the rotor may have rubbed a bit until it would not run right anymore.
I can feel inside the windings, sharp edges and some cooked but, not burned enamel from the field windings.
The rotor seems fine to the naked eye but, only Lehner knows. some of the magnets could have partially turned on the shaft there by messing up the alignment of the poles.
Seems to have a definite north & south.
I will check the rotor weight some time when I find that scale. Very heavy in comparison to a 4 pole motor like Neu, Leo, TP.
Very dense power.
What the pictures can't show at this time is the iron surrounding the field inside the can. Can't tell if the windings are woven through or if it is just an Iron ring to increase field strength.
Bearings, no question are top shelf. I might order some from Lehner and give them a try.
Hell of a paper weight and kind of dangerous taken apart. The rotor is super scary strong.
Now, if Leo or TP could make a 4 or 6 pole rotor with that density... Oh, thats called a Neu motor, lol...
NEU nice motors I hope to buy one soon when I figure out which one I need to run over 100 mph SAW you know 100.1 MPH LOL. Still need to decide on a boat but winter in Chicago will be here soon. Hey Ray, thank you for this information as I am learning all I can about electric motors. I learn from people like you a lot easier than read all the motor web sites as I just still don't understand. I listen to a young friend who really knows this stuff and spins me around because he will explain one motor/battery comb, then he says BUT you could do xxxxxxx xxx and run the same with less batteries. DOH! LOL I love him like a son.
I saw a 10s NEU 2212 or 2215 run in a JAE really large modified hull WOW David H. he did run 103 mph SAW at Huntsville last month. As Grim says Rock and Roll!
Mike
heres another sirius motor but it does not have the adjustable kv...looks awesome as well..mhz has some stuff specifically made for them sometimes so maybe its only a one off..am thinking about getting one..beastly!!!
