Castle Creations New 1512 Sensored motors

[whitrzac]

My 2 new 1512 motors came today.



What's the first thing we all do when something shiny and new comes? Take it apart of course

Now for the nekid pics

The sensor assembly is interesting...








I don't think the back was suppose to come off, it has epoxy on it, but didn't put up much of a fight. If so, castle needs to use better glue.

The 14xx sized motors should be out soon.

Timing is fixed because 4 pole motors do not respond well to timing advance. The magnet design with our shield makes it work better, but in our tests messing with the timing only makes the motor less efficient. Leave it in SmartSense mode and you will get the best of both worlds.

Two of these are on sale at Amazon right now for $50.28 shipped!!! The 2200kv and 2650kv are the only ones I could find at that price but this is a smokin deal for a $150 motor. Use code BIGTHANKS for $8.63 off.

Jumped all over that deal. Ordered 2 of the 2650kv for future projects.

We noticed that price yesterday and joked about buying a bunch of them and then selling them back to them. That is less than half of what we sell it to them for, so I'm not sure why they have those priced so low. I wouldn't expect them to honor that price, it is a huge glitch or typo.

[SCREAMER]

They took my money, they better honor that price.

I also ordered a couple. I would be surprised if they actually honor it but it's definitely worth a try.

This isn't the first time I've seen crazy low prices on amazon. I remember a couple years back amazon was selling sets of those Amp Research power running boards for trucks. They were letting them go for just under $300 and those are $1200 powered running boards. People put hundreds of items on "watch" and wait for the price to plummet for a day or two then buy them up. I'd be shocked if they didn't honor this, they shipped the ones they had in stock for this price.
