Too hot to handle!!!!!!
Eric,
I've ran your CO27 at the Tamiya track and it was a missle! I went club racing this past week and geared it wrong for that track. The motor got real hot!
Internal temp was around 200F and external was 180F. Can this motor be saved and if so what do I need to check to make sure it's still good.
Or am I spinning my wheels so to speak! Is the motor toast?
Thanks in advance!
Max
P.S. Hope to see you at the R.R.O.C.

I would just take it apart and rebuild it and see if it will still pull good amps. If the amp draw is real low then the magnets are shot. I can fix that with the zaper though.

It just seems like it doesn't have the same power that I had when I first ran it!
I put "F" brushes, still seems down on power. Should I change the springs? Can the springs loose tension if they get too hot? Can the amrmature itself have been somehow damaged from the heat?
Inquiring minds want to know!

Hey Eric,
Any dates for when your IB 4200's will reach us in the UK? I'm in need of a new pack or 3! Just gonna order a KD19 from Microtech too as they have just got your shipment.
EA motors are doing really well at the local club at the mo as Colin has probably told you and those CO27's are really fast!
Keep up the good work!
