Replacement Rotor for Hacker C50 MAXX - RC-Monster Forums

i'd see about a rotor from a different series with a 5mm shaft. that 1/8 inch is worthless

tekno sell the rotor for the c50 maxx with 5mm shaft for 75 bucks. I bought one a while back to fix the broken shaft in mine.

I wonder if the magnet could be removed from the damaged shaft easily and reglued onto a new 5mm piece of stock?

That would be possible. If anyone has the know how please post it here. I have a C50-MAXX with a broken 1/8' shaft and I have 5MM shafts here.

I have a broken one as well. I may try to get it loose from the shaft. Heat would be my best guess, but high heat will damage the magnet (at least that is what I think). Maybe I could press the shaft out, but I have a feeling it is a bit stronger than the magnet...

That what I was thinking, but I don't want to do it with mine and then have no magnet left lol. Now the other thing would be what Epoxy to use. Most of us can't acquire the real strong high heat industrial Epoxy.

Will it be stronger then the Epoxy they use on them? I know Hacker uses some pretty serious Epoxy as I haven't heard of any coming loose from the shaft.
