(WTS)(US) 2x Reacher 6485 205kv motors

I’ve got a pair of reacher 6485’s, 205Kv. The sensors are blown on both, so I was running them with HFI and they were fine. Shafts were cut for Boardnamics drives.




I’d let them go for $200 $100 shipped in the USA.

Sold AS-IS

I stopped using them after some kind of ESC fault threw me off my board at 30mph. I never found a smoking gun, and all my testing showed these motors are fine so :man_shrugging:

Only about 500mi on these, btw

How did the sensors get “blown”? Im considering picking these up

When I first installed the motors, I wired the sensors wrong and sent 5V down the temp sense line or something. Totally my fault. I trusted that the sensor wires would follow the color convention of other BLDC motors, which they do not.

what was the fault that threw you?
can you give anyone details on that esc type and settings?

imma take a wild guess and say he doesn’t know based on the wording used

esc settings and esc could also give a probability it’s the motor or not.

The ESCs did not report any faults, so I never found out for sure. I was just riding along my normal commute and my board locked up. Investigated everything I could think of, dyno-tested the board. Never could reproduce it, and never found a smoking gun. So no evidence that it’s the motor’s fault, but also no evidence to the contrary. Hence why I’m marking these “as-is.”

Still available. I’m going to CarveNYC this week, so if you’re in the NYC area I can bring them to the event! Hit me up.

I’m happy to re-solder the phase wires to whatever you want (if I have it). I’ve got most common connectors and bullets, so feel free to ask.

I’m not sure what a reacher is like inside but could they be fixable?

I’m not looking for motors but I replaced the sensor on a different brand before and just found these https://alienpowersystem.com/shop/rc-ev-accessories/electronics/internal-pcb-with-hall-effect-sensors-120-degree/

It might be possible but reachers are heavily potted in epoxy and if i remember correctly the hall sensors are in little notches

Depends on which version, older ones were epoxy potted which lead to temperature issues.

More like flipsky than Maytech then, that’s a pity. Maytech ones are just held on by a nut.

I will buy your faceplant motors

@xsynatic please close, bbgrl :heart:
