Nope, no more cans to be had. I am working on a suitable brushed replacement for them, as well as a brushless version.

In the mean time I just got delivery of a little lot of 16t arms that were wound to my specs. Since I can't keep up with the winding and normal work myself, I can at least teach others how to do it and hire them for it.
JRH, with those 16t, slotted or not slotted, do you have one available?

I sent a batch of arms off to a more professional machinist for slotting, since I haven't been able to get clean cuts on my machine. I have plenty of 16t wound up here though, they are on the site now.

1beatjeep, if you want a substitution or refund at any time for the order just let me know. I certainly didn't expect to have the slotting cost so much time on my behalf, or else I wouldn't have offered them until I had a big batch already done.

Just out of curiousity, how many amps would a 16T slotted 454 pull on 3 cells?? I am thinking of pairing these with a pair of Mamba Micro Max ESCs.

I asked John this in the tech thread question, and I was told that either the mamba micro or micro sidewinder should be fine with the 16ts. However I wasn't told an amp draw as such.

Yep....I found most of those posts before posting here. I just was looking for some sort of confirmation that the 454 16TS will work with Mamba Micro Pros. I have no complaints about my current motors, but am looking to shave more weight from my Bully V1 Rig.

Thanks

Just sent a email to the machinist that I sent em off to. He got caught up in the snow storm like I did and it put him a bit behind too.

Hey john, I just got my 16 turn motors and wanted to know if they come timed at zero. I am guessing that the cans are from some 11 turns right? Thanks TY.
