Feigao motor problem

[mmdooley]

The post i was reading the other day was about this problem. They where having a problem with cogging and tracked it down to the motor wiring. I wish I could find that thread:035:

Scott was that your thread from about 2or3 days ago?? Thanks

Possibly, it was titled "9920 to hot".

I can't tell how much room there is between the wire lead opening on the endplate and the internals, but to further insulate the wires, would this be feasible: Cut about 6" length of 12GA wire, pull the wire out, and the cut a lengthwise slit in the insulation. Then, wrap the insulation around the edge of the hole (so the edges of the endplate enter the insulation piece through the lengthwise slit).

[Somewhat off topic]:
Are the wanderers built the same with the pressed in endplate? If so, do they suffer the same design as the Feigaos? One last question; after you pop out the endplate do you just pop the endplate back in?
