3.17mm shafts

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I have several Turnigy motors using 3.17mm shafts. I've ordered several replacement shafts, namely for these motors but they all arrive as 3mm shafts. I've tried ordering cross referencing other motors with 3.17 shafts to use as replacements but can't see any listed. There are shafts with no diameter listed which is no help.

Does anyone know of other motors with 3.17 shafts and listed spares.

	are the 3mm long enough to work?If they are check the length and post here,HK has many but you just have to dig for them.C clip rings and flat's can be in the wrong spot,if you can make thease let me know.Flats can be done with file.I have a grove cutter but a hack saw blade can be ground thiner and the shaft put in a drill to make a grove. the blade is about 2x wider than most groves.

	I've no problem cutting flats and grooves for C clips, it's the diameter that's crucial.
