Stewart apart from the chance of a weak component, how long are the battery and motor leads on your rig? all the best, JJ. John Jackson East Yorkshire England...
Hi Stewart, I think 3000Tesla is a bit on the high-side, the magnets used in lrk's are 1.1 - 1.3Tesla. Typing error? Met vriendelijke groet ;-) Ron van...

... Assuming it wasn't a faulty part, there were high induced voltages on the battery side. You had long battery leads (I think Kontronik recommends 8") or...
The capacitor can blow from over current, too long leads, or from incorrect timing. The Kontronik controller is optimised for Kontronik motors which require...
Hi all, I guess by now there are more and more people out there that(who?) already have successfully built motors. Tell us about the successes, failures and...
Hi, I agree with Neil, it might be the timing issue that blew up the cap. I made some measurements with my Speedy BL / FLyware 350/25/12.5 2x0.8. Measurements...
Hello John, The motor leads are 180mm from motor to controller and the battery leads are 200mm from controller to battery. Regards Stewart, Auckland NZ ... ...
Thanks Rick, the motor was at full throttle, maybe it was underpropped and over-reving? Regards Stewart, ... From: Rick Page To: lrk-torquemax@yahoogroups.com ...
Hello Neil, The controller has worked fine with my three other 10 pole motors, they have been wound and propped to give around 600watts or 30 amps on 20 cells....

Hi all My motor (http://digilander.libero.it/ferramax/bless/bless.html) named 20/15/6 is just in developement to be a good replacement for Geared Speed400...

Hello Ron and all, I've just connected up my 430-20-22 for the first time (only 9 cells/no load)and it runs!! I'm very pleased. I do not yet have a prop or...
Your rev counter should work with a flash light behind the prop to cancell out the flickering lights from AC voltage. On Mon, 2 Dec 2002 21:55:43 +1300...
... Thanks! ... Whether it draws 45A or 60A, the 12,5W is clearly not the right motor (it will draw a lot more than 30A with a four bladed 9.7x6.25" prop); so...

... Maybe 37.5A is just too near the limit of the 40A controller - especially if the timing isn't spot on. Also perhaps at higher current the motor needs more...

Hi Ron, These are the info about what I have done up to now: Motor LRK 350/20/11 Magnets and stator from Torcman, rest of the parts self-made Stator:35mm diam,...
I have replaced the capacitor with a 50volt one the one that blew was a 35volt one that I had put in to repair crash damage. The motor is now holding a steady...
