Default TEAMNOVAK WEBSITE

I'm having the same issues trying to access the website, keep getting the Error 404 message. tried to send an E-mail to the website manager, however that has been bounced back twice, unable to be delivered.

Was trying to get the specs on the Brushless motors and review the new lightweight motors.

Catch ya

www.teamnovak.com comes up fine for me, but not all parts/pages can be displayed, just the basic site.

I bet they were using some 30mm clear fans on the servers, the fans broke, and the servers went down.

No -- just bonded rotors that "thermalled"...

Looks like they were doing a major rebuild of the web site and/or reloading from scratch...

Parts are "up", parts are missing... I thought computers were "fast"? LOL!

Hey guys,

Yeah, our webhosting company has been contacted and they are aware of the problem on their end and are working to solve the problems.

I don't think it has anything to do with clear fans or bonded rotors though!


What kind of questions do you guys have concerning the motors...?

There has been a lot of hullabaloo, belly-aching, and whining over removable sensor harnesses...any chances of that happening? And speaking of fans, that space aged looking heat sink, have you folks pondering on incorporating a fan onto that? its hella strange as it is but a fan on that would provide some SUPER cooling.

bx,

We are always knocking around ideas about removable sensor harnesses...so I would say there there are chances that sometime in the future we might get that... but as far as how certain that possbility is... I can't say.

Are you talking about the sleeve sink? People have used 4-40 screws and screwed the 25x25 mm fans onto the sides of them for even more dramatic cooling.... the fan sort of bolts to the "side" of the V if you catch my drift...?

As far as what an "evicerator" does... I'm not quite sure yet

*scratches his head and looks around*

I keep people on the internet entertained that could be part of the definition... I'll have to work on this one some more...

I can't leave you worrying about this!
The above was posted almost 3 years ago. All this time, and still no answer. Ohio must be one scared state by now.

I'm really not sure... I'll pass that question along to our resident goose butt expert though!

Hey Steve, what springs are you using on your 007 mod car at BCR. Your set-up said Hara red and silver. What X-ray springs would be similar to the ones you use?

Hey Wally!

Those springs are 17.5 lbs and 14lbs ... so white and yellow should work just fine!
