Need Help with 1717 Wires

[E-Revonut]

muriatic acid?

In the very least I guess this will prevent anyone else from making this mistake in the future.

Hi Raydee--

What you need is a magnet wire stripper -- it's a machine with two rotating fiberglass wheels that mechanically strips the insulation off the wires.
They are expensive, but they are pretty common with motor repair companies. Look in your phone book to see if there is a motor or armature repair company near where you live, and give 'em a call. It's worth a shot.

You could also try a solder pot and some mechanical removal -- but it's hard to be sure you got all the insulation off...

Pat I sent the Motor off to Steve Neu this morning. He was kind enought to strip and tin the wires for me.

wow thats one cool dude....

+1 on the cool dude!

Yeah I have a WHOLE bunch of Neu motors and Steve has ALWAYS been good to me, just like Castle has with my boat controllers. Castle and Neu are the ONLY brands I run in all my boats, cars, planes and Heli's.

Just want to say that I got my Castle 1717 back from Steve Neu today and the wires are all tinned up and ready for connectors. What great service from Neu motors, they didn't even charge me!

Hhmmm... I have that OK Hobby Infinite motor that I'm looking to shorten the leads on. Might email Neu, they repaired/shortened leads on my 1512 before, but not sure if they'd do it on a generic motor that isn't a Neu or CC
