...and decided to make me some hub moterzzz!
It's not the prettiest, but its my first try. Learned so much.
First, the screws that holds the fan to the rotor are a PITA to remove, even when using the right screwdriver. I stripped almost all of them, had to extract them out and rethread the holes.
The bearing tube is another doozy. Even after heating it up for 45 mins, it won't come off. I finally just drilled it out but its scary because the bit is so close to the windings.
I also should have used a smaller-diameter hole saw to remove the hub first, and then the right size forstner bit to bore the wheel. Using just the forstner bit to cut the hub made it dull easily.
I'm just waiting for the 3M epoxy and the 14mm bit to drill a bearing seat on the top of the can. BTW, if you guys want me to make some for you, check out my for sale thread: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=68581&p=1034199#p1034199
I'll first try them out with my Skyrc ESC, then use VESC on them. 8)
