What's up with the Lehners?

[jnev]

Thats great! Maybe I'll be making an expensive and high end motor purchase a lot sooner than I thought. :027:

Oh man, what news!! When that happens, I think I'm going to relegate my Quark to backup duty, behind my other four MM escs.

I'm wondering if Mike will start taking preorders. LOL

I also wonder if Mike might be able to just order a bunch of them with the 5mm shafts.

Yeah, the 5mm shaft option would make things easier for wider gearing range.

Mike will be carrying the Lehners once again- FlightPower is the new distributor of Lehner Motoren and Mike said they're working to support him with the lehners. He says it's a matter of weeks befor they become instock!

I'm glad he's able to restock them again.

I think he'll be carrying a full line of FlightPower's lipo packs.

Wow...best news I've heard in just about forever. I've been waiting for my 1950 for about 8 months now and my 1530 for about 3.

Do you know how long the wait would have been for you if you had just ordered a motor with a 4mm shaft?

Considering that the Neu motors require relatively expensive controllers, the Lehner motors seem like the best choice for a good motor.

Hi Angel, the problem is that Lehner builds the motor just on-demand. When You put the order to the Hydro&Marine, they send the order (whatever it is for a "stock" motor or modified by special request, like the mine for a 5mm axle) the first friday after the order date, then Lehner took two weeks to built the motor and the, finally, the motor will be shipped.

two weeks is doable. 8 months is kinda long..

[captain harlock]

I just hope that Mike will get them here in time.

Yea...it is kind of long. But, I guess its ok since its also brought the MMM closer as well. Either way, I hope Mike does get them soon. I know he works hard for us and I know its not his fault. I am just tired of waiting though.

If getting a 5mm shaft means a two week wait, I'm good with that. I've been waiting much longer than that for equipment that I had to return because it didn't work. I am anxious to try out a Lehner. I've never heard of a shaft sliding out of a Lehner, or a motor being mislabeled.

Lehner has the turn number stamped in the endbell, at least mine did.

mine too. which is good, because the hand-written number on the label has rubbed off.

[captain harlock]

All of them have that.

[bdebde]

I didn't want to say they all had it as I have only seen the one I have.

[jhautz]

Mine have it.

[captain harlock]

Nay, just forget it.....:005:
