Post by: riggers24 on April 22, 2009, 05:31:07 pm
Does anyone have any specification info on the MFA marlin motor, need to buy a ESC and I just hate the arkward questions ACTion will ask me you know the ones " What amperage do you need" and " if you don't know what can I do" ;) ;) ;) then the part shot of " go away until you know you orrible man" or is it just me that winds him up :} {-) :} {-)

Just phone him up he will know which one to sell you

The 800 draws around 5 amps
The 850 in excess of 15+amps

the specifications my friend are the same as the whereabouts of an 805 crystal - so Gawd nars

anyway, What ya doing with a Marlin - was that the original motor in dee modeel?    -    jUST looking at MFA catalogue (vintage style) and the Marlin Mk2 :-0

6-12 volt and it says 11,000 rpm on 12 volt and then it says typical current draw under load - 10 amps - I presume that will also be on 12 volt mate  :-))

the only reason you are frightened to ring ACTion up is; you divvent want to spend any more money  ;D ;D ;D ;D :embarrassed:

Aye same motor but the self tapers holding it on the mount aren't the same. Can't for the life of me remember the ESC it had in when I sold it but I know it was a decent one. Nah I got the money you check sod.

Dicky, already been on there but I can't see this motor listed, its part number is 776 and the casing is slightly smaller than the 800 motor and what is left of the sticker on the motor the RPM is slightly different. Could be an earlier version of the 800 but I want to check first.
