Status Update
Nitro, what's the latest? Any new results? This was such an interesting story, I hate to see it come to an abrupt end.

Trying to get back into the projects. I found the main culprit for my time away this year is the demand my kids put on me. This was evidenced on the weekend while trying to build a jet! The barrage of "Dad! Look at me, look at me!"'s was intense...

That is the best reason I can think of to have projects on hold.....the airplanes will always be ready when you are

Random Question
I have a question for you that I think is appropriate for this thread; what is the status of your group, "Team30"? I have tried to visit the website but it says it's under construction if I remember right. I am interested in seeing if any of these projects will be available for purchase !

A fair question indeed. I was going to put all things 30mm and micro edf there. Life got in the way... so many plans.. so little time...

Shaft
Nitro, what's the shaft diameter on that motor?
And also how difficult was it for you to remove the stator from the bearing housing? |
|
|
|
|
|
The shaft dia is 1.5mm. The stator comes off of the base pretty easily. I just used a heat gun (film covering type) and after a min or two the stator came off by hand. Of course it`s hot, so you have to use a glove or something for protection.
I wound mine with 6 turns of a single strand of #29 high temp wire from Go Brushless. My little jet has been Dopplered at about 95mph on 3s and 110mph on 4s. |

No, I don't have any #32 wire. I was going to order some from Go Brushless but they don't carry it. I'm running mine in the Sky Angel 35mm shroud with the stock 5 blade rotor. I've collected the parts to build a 30mm, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
I would like to get a 30mm up over 100mph. Still having fun with my 35mm. |

I ordered the replacement motor for the 35mm EDF, the GWS 30mm housing and the 40mm rotor along with a 1.5mm adapter. Also gave Dan from GB a call last night and had him send over some 30AWG MD magnet wire. I'm looking forward to building this little rocket! If it goes well I'll make a second and fit them into a Mig-29 (which unfortunately means buying a second Phoenix-10). Nitro, would you happen to know what your timing and PWM settings from your CC-10 are?
