Insides of a Plett (in case anyone is interested...)
 

Here ya go, a plett maxximum with his pants down :lol:

It is a 6 pole motor. It has an 1/8 shaft all the way thru, and the bearings are different from my plett maxx w/fan so not too sure about getting a 5mm shaft rotor in there. The front of the can is intergral, so not much chance of getting a bigger bearing in there, without machining.

The polished fin edges were done by me, I like the way it looks better than solid blue...

Very nicely made motor, not sure if I want to sell it now...:whistle:

Well that's pretty cool. I always take stuff apart to see it's innards. LOL

What kv is this?

Definitely a slotted stator design. The coils look very neat and tidy. And the magnet looks pretty large in diameter compared to a typical 540 Feigao.

Somewhere around 3000kv. I have ran it in a crt.5 and a flm pede on 3s, and an emaxx on 4s. Definately has plenty of torque.

I did not play around with the timing much, but plan to try my other maxx w/fan with a variety of settings. That motor is in the new emaxx with a griffinru stage1 mm. I run it with a pair of trakpowers in series for 4s. Current gearing is 18/68, way too low. I will say that the fan can move some air. feels like a hairdryer! I need to gear it up, and increase the timing, as the multipole motors seem to run better with higher timing...

is there any way to wrap the rotor of a feigao motor with kevlar or CF?

Not sure if there is enough room between the rotor and the windings. If there is, you just wind the kevlar string on with a power drill, and then brush some epoxy (or the correct stuff) on the kevlat string. At least that is what I have been told!

The internals are impressive looking. Thanks for the pics. Wish I could buy it from you.

No prob, it is a great motor, that is for sure...

What esc did you use while it was in the rustler?

Mamba Max esc...

Yes.

Correct.

Your Pletty looks good lincpimp.

Thanks Luciano...

Looking at the rotor, it has 12 flats on it that can be felt thru the kevlar wrap. Does that mean it is a 6 pole motor? Or am I missing something: reasonong is that a magnet has 2 poles, and 12 divided by 2 would be 6?

If it is a 6 pole motor, should I run higher timing? Would that improve performance?

That rotor looks just like the one in my Extreme. They might use 2 magnets per pole. Funny thing you asked about timing. The 6S controller that I've been testing was acting up when I had low timing running the Aveox. When I went to mid timing the controller worked perfect. Now days I'm getting more and more confusing as some companies say to run low timing to keep temps down. I always go mid or 5 degrees of timing for 4 pole motors and high or 10+ degrees for 6 pole motors. My 60A controller burned when I changed timing on it when I was running the Mega ACn16/15/1. I had 15 degrees of timing and it was doing awesome, but I made a mistake and changed the timing instead of another setting and a couple of FETs went dead.
