View Full Version : Securing Endbell on Nemesis...

Guys,

When you want to re-secure the endbell on a Nemesis (8L), what do you use? Is there a special epoxy you use?

Someone also said there was some kind of mechanical apparatus that you can get for these motors that holds the end-bells firm when running them... Anyone ever heard of this?

I noticed that one of my 8Ls had the endbell drifting out a bit (about 1/16" or so at this point) and the endplay has really increased... I want to fix it before it gets worse...


Oh, by the way... I WILL be using thrust bearings from now on to avoid this in the future... :D

Thanks,

Does anyone have a link or contact info for Starluck RC??? My Goodle search returned this site:

http://www.starluckrc.com/

But I can't seem to find anything there that looks like the brace in the picture above? Maybe I'm calling it the wrong thing??

Thanks,

Works great. The endbell to can clearance on some Feigao motors can be too big (too much gap) for Loctite to be effective.... on others it works OK. I've had to resort to epoxy on some motors.
