Just a quick question...someone may know..
How can the 1300, 1500 and 1700 24 gram blue wonders (silver cases) be identified visually. Once they get out of their box, I have not found any difference...any clues..I have several 1700's but not sure of a few are 1300 and 1500 ...I do know I bought at least one of each...but have no way of telling.
Sweet little motor. Put one into my Hobbyzone Mini Super Cub replacing its old brushed motor and gearbox (with a 12A ESC). Love the way it flies now, not super powerful but definitely more enjoyable to fly! Getting about 9 mins out of 800mAh battery. Now need to make a steerable tail wheel! Video using HK HD wingcam.
Thanks,

Hi!
i just received my motor a few days ago, and i notice that the winding is not right, just looking you can see that some "post" of the stator have less turns than others, is not disassembled jet, but i want to know how many turns this must have, and what kind of wire i need to use. thanks a lot!!
I will use it with a 8x3.8 SF propeller at 2Cell lipo.
Thanks again!
What is the flight time on this motor using a nano-tech 850 mah with a 8x3.8 prop? Most of the time just taking it easy. I am going to need more Lipos and getting some more of these motors and trying to decide what size lipos to get that are not too heavy or costly
Thanks
Quem pode me informar se com este motor, posso montar um aé*ro.
e quais peç*as preciso mais, tipos de baterias, esc, etc.
Desde já* agradeç*o a atenç*ã*o.
I run one of these in a hobby zone mini cub with the 8x6 sf prop or the standard prop it pulls like a tractor on a rhino 610 7.4 lipo up to 1100 mah tiger lipo with a 12a esc great motors.
I use original mount just cut it down to suit,using ply to fix motor to,doing this gives me the factory settings of motor pointing down to motor pointing right.
Rocco...you need to work on your links!
Arzangel...THANKS....not really sure why HK can't spend 2 seconds to get someone on a micrometer to measure...then again, I have been very cautious of HK's measurements. Prices are decent, but when you can't use the items based on the piss poor measurements' or lack there of....it's not worth the headache. Sure you can but for 30% less...but if it doesn't fit who the hell cares!!!!
Yes, you will have to solder your own connectors to the wires. Sadly, it does not come with connectors, so make sure you have spare connectors of the type you use.
If you are talking about thickness, its 3mm. If you are talking about length, its just under 40mm. Search for this item: HXM2730-Shaft, it is a spare shaft for these motors.
There is a good range of performance options for lightweight planes.
RECOMMENDED!
Thanks HC!

This motor revs a GWS 8 x 4.3 @ 7000 rpm on 2s480 Tanic cells @ 8 amps. That gives you 300g of thrust. Its a 12 Pol motor with 16 Magnets. Weight is 24g. The performance of this motor could be improved by using smaller magnets, there is no gap between the mags. Coverrage of the mags should be under 80pcnt of the ring. The winding is lousy, my grandma can do better. "you get what you pay"

I have 4 of these motors. Need I say more? OK, I will. Great on sub 10oz planes, esp with a 8040HD prop on a 3S as a pusher on my 10oz flat jet. Keep the drag down and don't use more than an 8040HD prop. Even sounds pretty cool. We have 4 of these jets/motors at our field now. Can't go wrong if you use it on light foamie planes.

Looking for a little parkjet motor and ran it up on 3S 1000 mah (Hextronic) got 14000 rpm at 6.7 amps with an APC 5x5. The 5.5 x 4.5 was a bit much for efficiency, the rpm dropped to 13200 and the amps went up to 8.1. With a 6 x 4 the Pentium 12 began to loose sync at 10k rpm. I like the 5x5.
