TP Power changing 3630 can sizes
Received an interesting call from Jean at TP power tonight in regards to the 3630 1950Kv motor I ordered. Actually it was really great that they called to verify the order. In any case...the new can size for the 3630 is now 65mm in length which does not fit the IMPBA rules of not to exceed 62mm. The original can size was 61mm. :doh: Jean said she had other guys that had ordered the motor and found out later that it doesn't fit the rule. Thus why she called me. So what she is doing is forwarding the order to TP for the 61mm motor, which for now she said they can do.
Not sure how long they will be able to do that, but I indicated to Jean that they may want to make both size cans. (V2 / V3) Otherwise they will be chopping out sales on 3630 boat applications because they meet the IMPBA racing rules. She was going to pass that on.
May have to look at testing the Leopard motor out too....:smile:

Ready for prime and paint
Finished up my new GSX310 last week.....2 coats of thinned down west system went on great and completed the final sanding. Just waiting on a bit of warmer weather to start the prime and paint. Putting in my order for 2 - 2S 6500Mah batteries from Mojo Racing.... Going to mount a light ply sheet up front so I can mount the batteries cross wise and have plenty of room for the Raider ESC up front of the main bulkhead. I did a lot of weight and balance work before mounting the motor so I hope to have some flexibility in battery packs.
Haven't picked a color yet....wife is helping me out with that...LOL :laugh:
