Re: Graupner motors

You put the grubscrews where the metal balls used to be after you tip them out. Ellis' video shows you where they go

Re: Graupner motors

use atleast 2 grub screws per motor (use the correct size) but do not tighten otherwise you will completly lock the gearbox and start to bend and warp the plastic gearboxes

Re: Graupner motors

does anyone have a link to the screws because i couldn't find anything in Wickes

Re: Graupner motors

i think however im not 100% sure because its a while since i did this myself you will need m5 gurb screws wait before ordering until someone else confirms

the m5 x 8 (8 is the length in mm) will work fine

Re: Graupner motors

Got mine on Ebay, although I pretty much rounded off everyone.

Re: Graupner motors

We got 2 packs of 10 from Ebay, 5mm long m5. They're too short, really. Get 8mm long for safety, they should come just flush if you tighten down.

Also, they're likely to be a 2.5mm size allen key, make sure you have one.

Re: Graupner motors

thanks PJ.
only 9.5amps 12v
you can run 2 on an electronize could you?
115w isn't that much.
I'm always on the hunt for high power motors.

Re: Graupner motors

I doubt it. Those motors will likely pull a lot more than 9.5amps under heavy load.

Re: Graupner motors

The weapon on Bitzawood uses one and the ESC, although rated for 30a I think is somewhat optimistic doesn't even get warm.

But to use them at their full potential you'll want a beefy ESC and probs want to run them above 12v.
