I wasn't going to name names since this is a Castle thread and you SHOULD be ordering from them, but I needed this ASAP for racing so I found a shop with them in stock (cough*Espritmodels*cough) and the shipping realy treated me well :-)
Yes, those are noodle wires coming out of the can, and I can read "castle" on one of them... It's technically a "ducted fan" motor I.e. 1409DF/2Y.
I found a blown out bearing in one of the rear hubs while putting in the hardened CVD shafts and I haven't got a spare so not sure how much data logging I'll get this weekend before the remaining bearing gives out. I'll post up what I do get though.
I love HV and I'm finding that smaller low KV motors and tiny Mah packs are the way to go. Ive also got a 1/10 4wd buggy that's running a Neu 1107/2Y heli motor on 4S 1000mah packs that is WAY fast and very low temp. The buggy ready to race is 2lbs 13oz battery and all :-) Screw ROAR :-)
If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
