How's the motor doing on your heli? no problem? powerful? I need your opinions! thx.

Sabot

erm... i use Ball Bearing motors in a lot of things..

whats the motor specs? number of winds? manufacturer? what heli using in...?

be a little more specific and expect more specific answers

I know there are two manufacturers for this 280bb motor: acro & multiplex.

I personally have the multiplex and it wasn't working well on my aerohawk (with piccolo rotor system).

so....would like to know how well it works for the rest of the people...

I use a 300BB motor in my hornet (i never got the thing to fly properly) but the motor seems fine, powerful.

maybe your motor isnt working well, somone meantioned that futaba radio's sometimes prevent motors from reaching full power (in responce to someone asking why their heli wont fly)


I'm not familiar with aerohawk heli's so i dont realy know, maybe the motor is too small for it or something

astrocyl

Someone used the same but different brand 280bb motor and it worked in his piccolo.
Not for me though.
there's so many factors why the heli won't fly...just keep my head spinning...

Where do you get the 280BB or 300BB ? Is the direction of rotation correct or do you have to retime them ?

Sabot

my 300BB was stock in with the hornet CP so no

I have a Hummingbird and would like to try the 280BB or the 300BB motor. Where would I go about getting one ?

you can order MS but it's a pain in the ass

i recon your local model shop should sell them or ask them to order one for you from the supplyer

Im getting a hummingbird soon and Thats actually a realy good idea! i didnt think of using my 300BB motor, thanks
