Mamba Monster 2200kv Combo - 07.24.2009, 06:07 AM

I was thinking ahead about my motor and maintaining it. What are the bearing sizes for the 2200kv? Whats a recommend bearing type? I was thinking ceramic ABEC 7. Thoughts?

yes i was wondering the same thing...also...is it possible to buy the end-bell/ mounting plate for the 2200 motor?

i turned the end bell around and put the motor back in with the new threads.

Abec 3 or better bearings should be fine, all you really need to do/ can do to maintain the MMM motors is just clean the bearings with a drop of 3in1 oil or wd40 to flush out dirt every now and then. Basically just keep it lubed- if you notice the bearings are rough, then you might want to concider changing them, otherwise, its pretty much maintainance free...
