Upcoming Castle Outrunner Motors

[DLS II]

Shucks, video "not found on this server". Question: will they have "movable" shafts so they can be set up to drive off both ends? Thanks, Don

No, but they will have a mount that will allow driving a prop off the back of the motor.

BTW: Tim gets about 4 minutes of flight time off the 12S 5000mah 40C battery. 5HP average, 12HP peaks. Over 200A under high load maneuvers, about 15A hover.

I think his idea here is to attach a drive cup to each end of the shaft, so the motor could be placed in the center of a car/truck/buggy without any reduction. What we call "direct-drive-to-diff".

Provided the shaft is not a press fit alone.

Provided the shaft has set screws, then it is moveable or replaceable.

Just looking at the pictures, I believe mods are possible.

I'm just waiting for them to be released.

Yes, I believe I attached some pics previously in this thread. Don

Mods are always possible.
