Medusa Motors End Bell Question - 07.11.2008, 12:20 PM

Do the medusa motors need any mods to keep end bell from poping off etc or is this not a problem with them....I thought I read somewhere someone using few drops of CA to hold motor end bell together as a precaution...

I thought the medusa's were rebuildable. If that is correct then ther endbell will be held on with screws, and you will have no problems with that.


Please correct me if I am wrong

The back endbell kept popping off on mine, so I just used some CA glue around the edges of the cap and so far it's been doing just fine.

The front has no endbell- it's a part of the can/is the can.

So are the endbells of medusa motors pressed like all of the chinese motors? I was planning on getting a 36-60 2000kv motor, should I rethink my choices?

Why not just use the RC Monster heatsink clamp. It would work the same for these motors as it does for the Feigao's


Cen ME16 Sidewinder 5700
CRT.5 MM + 1509 1y
FLM Rustler MM & 7L
E-Maxx Hv maxx 6.5 + FLM E-Maxx
Stock E-Maxx for friends to bash
8ight-t 1515 1y in the works

What's Next?

I was thinking that also. It actually looks like Mike is making one for the medusa's. Because there is a "L" size heatsink anodized blue.

Mine popped off from a 50 mph cartwheel/crash (Rustler was A-ok!). At the worst, simply put some CA glue on the cap, and stick it back on. That's all. Or like dadgummit said, just use an RC monster heatsink clamp.

I will most likely buy the motor for my upcoming hyper st pro and run it with the rcm blue heatsink/clamp.
