not eggzakery… what you are feeling is cogging effect on the magnetic flux, showing not only how strong the flux field is, but also how weak it is… some like this “feel” as they “think” this is desirable… but it’s not, and it’s not as efficient as a flux field that is better directed and managed, and does not exhibit this “cogging” feel…

Looks like a sweet design, but what plastic are you using? I would worry it will melt when soldering

solder first. then push terminals thru the back

EDIT:

Or better yet, push wire thru printed housing, solder terminal away from printed part and pull the wire to pull the terminal into the housing… brilliant!!!

A mockup of the legendary MR90 emerges from the imagination

I was asking not if the shaft was keyed for the pulley — but is the shaft keyed for the rotor (with the magnets on it)? Because rotors slipping on the shaft has been a consistent problem with many different motor designs/brands. Grubscrews are shit.

I was litterally trying to come up with a kinda MR90 since yesterday, dude that’s awesome !!

Did you test it ? Will you share the file ? I like that! :grin:

No, I didnt test it yet. But I think that these 5,5mm Bullets are a bit overkill for my 6384 motors :sweat_smile: When everything is finished, i will upload the design to thingiverse, but you would need the exact same bullet connectors to make it work :confused:

It’s alright I can sacrifice a pair of XT90 for science :laughing:
You have eventually a step or solidworks version?
I have 6.9mm bullets waiting to be treated the hard way like they deserve :fire:

I still can’t make made my own GD :weary: :money_with_wings: they ask too much.
I will go with 3Dsas again (by the way, this is the kit you can see on my 3d renderings).



But when we will be able to move (we should make our house-warming this WE …), and set and use my cnc, I hope to make mine at home :slight_smile: … after more than 3yrs of upgrading drawing (thx to everyone here ^^) it will finally be time !

What’s this second device you have posted of?

Telemetry device?

It beeps loudly whenever it detects any of the 5 species of Baboons in close proximity to your skateboard.

It’s also a prototype BLE/NRF receiver/logger.
