We have a New 2 star vector brushless motor which has just broke down, after just 2 months, and precious little running.
The rotor has come loose on the shaft. This is the third motor that I know of that has failed with a rotor type problem. I only know of three users of this system making it an impressive 100% failure rate of the maintenance free brushless system from LRP. Does anyone know of any other similar failures? Are we doing something wrong? or is there a manufacture / design fault? We run this in our B4 geared on a 21 pinion 81 spurr |

Erm, sounds like the one I sent back to the shop. LRP 1 Star Brushless. Screws and end bell came loose at the pinion end, you couldnt tighten them up. Sent back to shop and replaced within 2 weeks, but if its the same problem, there seems to be a trend :/

I have a 3* system for my B4 and a 4* system for the ZX5. both have been trouble-free all season so far. I'm very pleased with them.
BUT .... I've noticed some of the motors come with REALLY crappy bearings. ![]() The only other problems I've seen with the LRP/Nosram BL systems seem to be that some ESC's have a will of their own, demonstrating itself in resetting, engaging the overheat security for no apparent reason, ... |
