Title: 380 MOTORS
Post by: balders on April 03, 2011, 10:56:27 pm
Hi,
   Does anyone know where there may be any new 380 3 pole motors for sale please.A  mate is after a couple.They are apparently listed in the new S.H.G catalogue but became unavailable to them after the proof went to print.

                          Thanks,
                           Andy (Balders) :-))

Hi,
    Thanks for reply.He is interested in your motors but is not familiar with.Do you know what they rev at.He needs motors that rev at least 25000 rpm.If these fit the bill then please send your price including p and p.
        Thanks for your swift reply,
                                             Andy.

Sounds as if better going for brushless if 25000 or more rpm required. John.

Thanks everyone for replies and suggestions.I have tried Cornwall model boats and several others but they are all having difficulty as I believe they may have been deleted.The motors are to go in a mates  submarine.

380 once meant (only) that the armature was 38mm long, and by default had 3 poles.
Speed 400s are exactly that, despite the number, and can be had in so many winds its unbelievable
They will rev to 25k, but only if not loaded too much. 
I use a S400-6V at 12V in a ducted fan, and while this is pretty brutal it survives (so far)

as suggested by DD the speed 480s (even larger selection of winds, etc) would be a step up in power

Why on earth 25K revs/min in a Sub? :o

would you think a 7.2v Speed 400 would survive on 3 cell lipos in a robbe Katja? I would be water cooling it
