O.K. after 2 days of flying my new 600N, Saturday was fantastic, no problems ! Sunday started out fine, but then the gov, was not working ? Get home, drop the motor, and the gov, magnets are missing !!!! I used 2 ton 30 min epoxy, and dilled a small relief hole in the fan rises, so what did I do wrong ? any ideas ?

I have 5 gallons on mine and still going. I scratched the inside of the magnet pocket with my exacto blade, ran the magnet on some fine sandpaper to rough the surface and cleaned all with some alcohol. Some have drilled the holes out completely and flushed the magnets to the fan plastic.

Mine still in place too - I think the fan flexing might ping them out so I guess scroing the side of the magnet and the hole as Ticidy suggests might be worth it - apparently you can get similar rare earth magnets from Radio Shack and Futaba also do them in a pack with the sensor - I recently found during the clutch liner change that using the pre-drilled holes for the Futaba sensor, giving 97% sensor reading was too close and stuffed up the end of the sensor. I have raised it up to give a reading of 70%

on my 600N the fan touch black plastic cover and now it's so damaged that there is no hole anymore, the upside of the fan is totaly flat :(
