Feigao magnet let go - 08.25.2007, 02:37 AM

I posted that my Feigao 8XL magnet separated after a few laps around my local track. I have some updates so I am reposting here. I finally got my hands on some Loctite #638 so I applied the Loctite and made a jig to hold the magnet steady while the Loctite set. I used JB Weld on the end cap and between the two magnets. I have it back in my truggy and will try it out this weekend. I hope it holds up because I have 4 Feigao motors and I hear this happens a lot.


Separated magnets, shaft, bushing and magnet end cap.


Rotor clamped to keep the magnets aligned while the Loctite sets.
