High Performance Coreless Micro DC 5-2.4 tail motor

I think I would like to try this motor with a DD setup, I have a Schultze 105 so should work ok. Has anyone had any experience with it and do you know where I can get one from in Europe, or who makes them?

Never tried one, but they're available here:-

They're good motors but bear in mind that they are twice the weight of the stock Pic tail motor. Although now that I think about it, losing the tail housing and tail gear should save you that much weight anyway.

Thats a great site I especially like the carbon fibre props they look tempting for tail option. As for weight I think they are 8grams lighter that the pro motor im using already, but Im not sure if they will match the power of my pro or handle the voltage of 3 LiPo's

I think I need to hear from someone who has used one before I buy. I want ot be sure it has the grunt to work DD on a CP Pro with a brusless setup

I fly one, but it drives the nomal pinion/spur gear arrangement of the TR. It works fine and is about the same weight as a DD with the HP Pro tailmotor. Don't think you will find it has the power to swing the 3x2 DD prop but let us know how it works out.

So I think your saying it does not really have the same power as a Piccolo Pro motor. I think it might not be worth it, its a shame I would relly like a coreless on the tail, I think they are really smooth and would hold it steady great

They are as powerful as the stock motor IIRC.
BUT, if you use a normal rate ESC, the brushes wear out very quickly. You need the HF-100 (100kHz) controller to save the brushes!
