G.A.A Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Does anyone know where I can get a replacement motor axle for the HPI flux brush-less motor. The stalk of mine has just snapped of at the pinion gear...Also does anyone know if they are hard to replace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzokajoe Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 castle sell replacement rotors (the part you have broken fyi) in rebuild kits for the 1515 (2200kv motor that comes in a savage flux hp/vorza flux), which motor is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.A Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'm not sure how hpi rebrands the flux motors but I know it is the one which comes as stock in the hpi firestorm flux. That would make it 5700kv I think.I am looking to rebuild rather than replace is it is cost and labor efficient, the motor's only a few months old.

stretch Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 If its 10t flux with red shell it'll be 5700 the newer version has 4600 in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't be rebuilding the broken shaft, not unless you have god-like welding skills; you need a new complete new rotor ( shaft & magnet- they are bonded together so are replaced as one piece inside the motor ). Castle discontinued that line of motors a while ago however, and they don't list replacement rotors for them on their site, chances are you are going to need a new motor I'm afraid...
