We should have 1717 5mm shaft motors in early April.

Thanx!

Offshore electrics has a note that they're expecting a new batch on April 10. Hope they come with a 5mm shaft.

Hey Patrick. I sent you a pm about the 5mm one. I also question the power difference between 1717 1520.

I know the diameter is bigger on the 1717 than the 1515s but are the mounting holes the same?

They are 18-21mm, 20mm on average.

Same size bolt pattern, ~ 25.4mm center hole to center hole; 3mm screws on both.

That means you could fit a 1717 motor to the mini E-Revo tenbol mount. A motor that weighs more than the car? I don't see a problem with that! :)

Would be cool, but you couldn't gear it high enough to take advantage of the torque it makes. You you need an output multiplier...

I'll have to double check a production motor on Monday. I was measuring a prototype motor in engineering, so it may have changed before it hit production. I was thinking 3mm seemed a bit small for that size motor, but I'll verify on Monday; sorry for the confusion.
