Turret rotation motor (found)

Hi

I bought one of these and found that with 6 volts running it the turning speed is pretty good for a turret without any other gearing needed. The whole thing is quite compact too. I'm running mine with an ESC with forward and reverse variable speed.

Hi there Andy I've bought one last week not fitted it in yet! Just got a 14 tooth pinion today that fits on it perect! Off a trex 500 heli am now waiting for the drive gear off a trex 500 to arrive! Then I can fit it! Have you got pics of it fitted in your tank! :thumbup:

I'll post a picture soon. I run it directly to the base of the turret and it works a treat.

I'll be Useing the trex heli main gear for the turret ring and then a cog off the motor should be good I'm running straight from the RX18 so I needed to gear it down a bit more! Can't beleve how silent the motor is!!!!!!! :thumbup:
