Thank You!!!
I would like to give a big thank you to everyone that helped me out today:
My tires were shot by the end of the last final, the fronts were almost bald. I am still unsure as to whether my Novak 6.5R Brushless has a sintered rotor in it? It has a smooth can, and the motor was red hot to the touch (I would not have wanted it ANY hotter after final 3). This was geared on 82/17. Is there anyone with another 6.5 Novak motor which they bought seperately which they know has a sintered rotor in it? I bought it as a package along with the speedo. Thanks Mark |

Hi Mark,
If you turn the rear wheels, and you can feel slight notching from the motor - similar to a brushed but less, then it is sintered. if you turn the back wheels and it rolls very freely, almost like there is no motor in atall - thats bonded. |

Sounds like it is bonded then to me, but I will just check and get back to you!
Cheers Chris, you seem to be helping me out a lot at the moment! |

On the purple label, it has 6.5R on it, but it has the smooth can/endbell. It has a black timing ring, so it doesnt seem to match up to any of the descriptions given by Novak on their website....
It had a very slight notching feel to it, but the rear wheels turned very easily.... I am not sure now!! LOL I have a spare sintered rotor as well. It might be worth trying it to compare.... Mark |

Thanks Chris,
I think it must be a sintered then, since there was noticable notching on the motor. As a guide, what would be you starting overall ratio on you X5, so I have a comparison to go from? I ran my XX4 on 11.04:1 at Kidderminster, which translates to 82/17. Thanks Mark |
