Stock motor - durability?

psindrup · 05-21-2008, 02:24 PM

Hi all

I have a strange problem with my motor/head.

Sometimes it seems to "bind" but after a couple of manual turns of the head, everything loosens again and runs freely.

I have flown my T-rex 500 approx. 80 flights.
How many flights is the stock motor expected to last?
Could it be that my motor is just "worn out" already?

If it needs replacement, I will go for the Scorpion 1600KV motor.
Do you have any idea where I can buy the Scorpion?

Peter

Is there no one that knows where the Scorpion 1600KV for the T-500 is available?

Thanks

Peter
