I use the Orion Element and Peak Dynasty Motors. Anyone out here use them also?

I get about 11-Runs before I have to Cut the Comm. Anyone getting the same?

Thanks

Take Care

Sorry if this has been asked, but what are the differences between a hemi wind and regular wind?

Easy to show, but a bit tricky to describe...

"hemi" winds are identified by the wires coming out from the armature coil, STRAIGHT (parallel to the armature shaft) to the comm, then STRAIGHT back to start the next coil...

"regular" (also called "mabuchi wrap" or "cross wrap") is identified by the wire coming out from the armature coil and then crossing over the "incoming" wire as it goes out to the comm. (the wires visually cross in front of the windings)

Additional notes:

Electrically, the "hemi" ends up to be about 1/2 wind shorter (in terms of wire length) for the same number of turns -- slightly higher performance.

Another "catch" is that the two styles result in winding the wire in opposite directions around the armature stack -- thus they will turn in opposite directions if you swap them in a motor.

was running my CP19T in my BD with a 5.78FDR. speed was pretty consistent. just wanted to make sure that i'm not overgeared, nor under.

can anyone tell if i could still push the gearing based on this image?


that's after breaking in the motor and around 4 packs of practice. running on infinity brushes and silver springs on both terminals.

thanks!

How many run was that? You can go up 1T for pinion gear.

4 runs of about 8mins each.

Could someone suggest a decently priced lathe? I run mostly mod motors.

Also, is a diamond but a necessary investment? Why?

Thanks,
