Insides of a Plett heli motor - 05.19.2009, 02:04 PM

Plettenberg HP300/20/A4

Just picked this up, and I figured I would post a few pics of it for all of you to eyeball. Very interesting motor, lots o poles, and a built in fan (run Brian G!). Has an almost completely hollow rotor core, looks to be made up of 3 disks, 1 for each end and 1 for support in the center, kinda like a drum/barrel. Those 3 disks have holes drilled in them to further lighten them. The can is also very lightweight. Construction quality seems very good, as has been the case with all of the plett motors I have owned.

740kv, and it has a 5mm shaft and std 540 bolt spacing for 3mm screws. I plan to run it in a buggy on 10s lipo. Not sure about the power, but should be comparable to a 1907 neu, so around 900-1000watts potential. So also comparable to a 1509-1512. Given the light rotor and multipole it should spin up fast and have lots of torque!
