It was like that because of the big support bearing. The big support bearing caused more problem then good. It’s silicone cable now
amazing thanks
these motors seem super awesome
def worth it
Will these be available without the ridiculously big sensor wire plug?
It takes a diy builder 5 min to convert it to a jst vesc connector if you don’t like it.
A gues would be 30-40 more.
Yeah. But that wasn’t my question. If you sold a model without jazzy connectors for a little less, I think there’d be a market for it. But thanks for your comment.
Yes that would be a great idea. But the company is to small to order different version for same motors atm.
Literally ONE DAY after I purchase new motors…
Currently they’re both
I think it’s necessary on motor designs like this where the can being wedged just a small bit will start to scrape against the stator due to the length of the motor. Either there needs to be a support bearing (ideally one that can be easily replaced if it dies, and preferably not exposed to the elements), or the can and shaft need to be locked together better, like Neumotors do.
Do you have a photo of the mount side of the motor? Do the bearings stick out?
edit: I extracted one from your site
whyyyyyyy
Why not? Their is several pulleys avaible for belt drive and most gear drive maker supports 10mm
Jesus, aren’t diy’iers picky…
Basically… lol
Hi Marcus, Nice motors
I would love the following specified (pretty standard motor parameters);
Whats the idle current in the motor? Bigger motors are notorious for drawing a few amps when doing nothing.
Whats the meassured efficiency of the motor?
Inductance? Resistance?
oh could we get some videos of um Testing
Because with more power and torque the 8mm shaft becomes too vulnerable. I’ve seen quite a few broke 8mm shafts
seen quite a few broke 8mm shafts
This is probbaly more so down to quality of the shaft, I’ve never had an issue with 8mm shafts on quality modors
Do you have a ball park time frame on the preorder? Not the time it will take for the production but how long you plan on keeping this offer available?
I’ve seen quite a few broke 8mm shafts
I hear this, but have only seen like 1 photo ever and I suspect it’s because they hit a curb with the pulley.
The real problem is the thousands of pulleys and drives that all have 8mm bores and there’s not really a good reason to change it if there aren’t breakages, seems like adding incompatibility and cost for no reason at all.
