DM 5335 (50cc size Electric) made by Subsonic Planes

[AKfreak]

around the base of the motor, there is a very large bearing underneath the outer edge of the bell, that prevents the bell from flexing during flight, making the motor significantly more capable at handling the high gyroscopic forces of 3d flight. Right @Ken Man?

What an incredible motor, :tongue:

$500 bucks s something I jus don't have at the moment. I did however post a thread asking for help/advice on a setup I do have. I wish I could afford to play with all the cool toys. Two kids, wife in school, and doing everything by myself makes for a very tight budget.

One day I might be able to buy a used motor and have it rewound or something. Until then ill just have to live vicariously through you folks.

Anyone collect pea shooters, maybe we can do some trading..

Mine should be here today! Wooooo Hoooooo. I talked to Ken and he is sending me the 175kv wind. I have the Gecko 150 amp in my grubby little mits already... Gary, do you still have that prop?

Nope, sold it on the site a few weeks ago, sorry

My test wind of 192kv kicked out 6000w on a 24x9 Xion carbon prop Tuesday....

Going to try a 23x10 Xoar Electric next. Need to get the watts down a little to about 5300-5500 watts.

Pretty incredible punch out tho!!

Sounds like FUN! I got my motor yesterday. This thing is HUGE! What size bolts are you using for the motor mount/standoffs. I need to measure and order some standoffs today.

I bought the standoffs and bolts from customstandoffs... I think they are 5mm bolts

This motor keeps sounding better and better! I would really like to have one!

I too got my standoffs from Craig at Customstandoffs.com... The $7 he charges for the 8 bolts, washers and lock washers to go with the standoffs is worth it, IMO. Very nice quality and fast service.

I want to put this in a EF 91 Yak 54, but I'm uncertain which kv would work best in this plane

That is a good question and the answer depends on several factors. I.e. your altitude, desired prop size, and make/model of ESC all need to be taken into consideration in order to obtain maximum drive system power without overloading the motor.

You may want to brief Ken Young at Subsonic Planes on which prop and ESC you intend on using, and he'll fix you up.
