Default Change the rotor on a brushless

Hi,

I'm running a novak gtb with a 6.5 motor.
I would like to know if it's possible and easy to change only the rotor to put a sintered one as replacement?

Would I have to stay with a 6.5 or can I go to a 5.5 or 4.5 without issues?

Salut,

LE bobinage n'est pas sur le rotor dans un brushless donc tu ne peux pas changer. La seule difference sera l'aimant plus puissant et plus fiable.

Ouais, je viens de réaliser la connerie que je racontais en cherchant des rotor "sintered" sur le web.

L'aimant plus puissant c'est sensible ou ça ne vaut pas les 40€?

OK, then if somebody has moved from std to sintered rotor, feedback would be very much appreciate.

Else I'll probably go for a brand new 4.5 or 5.5, but velocity light to "save" my diffs.

I have changed from a bonded standard rotor to a sintered rotor and the motor ran so much better and cooler. Unlike brushed when you change the rotor this does not change the wind as the winds are static in the can. If you want to go to a different wind then it is a completely different motor I am afraid.

Even if I have no overheat issue, that's a useful information, thanks.

Yeah forget about that, I was probably not completely awake when I thought it could work.
