Turnigy motor bearings failure

Hi All,

As per the title i have suffered bearing failure in one of my turnigy sk8 149kv motors.
does anyone know the size i should be ordering? and if there are any tips/ things to do or avoid from anybody who has been here before?
many thanks.

you got them digimatic calipers?

I have now. Managed to misplace mine so borrowed a set today.
tapped out the remnants of the bearings and if anyone needs the info, basically the same as the sk3 motor.

Catastrophic bearing failure which smashed the sensor pcb to bits. It was a good time.
They have since upgraded the bearings apparently.

Never an issue with SK3 but the original SK8’s were shithouse. How old are the motors?
