there are a couple ways.. Maybe the replace them every couple runs. which i would totaly see. considering they are so cheap they are disposable. [quote]ORIGINAL: norbique OK I understand your opinions but how do you explain then, those videos on Youtube, that show some German guys having excellent results with both the L and XL versions of the KBs?

RE: KB45 VS. LEHNER 2250 VS. LEHNER 1950
not certain who told you that a Kb was better then a Lehner , However they are quite dead wrong. there is a reason why a one is about 400% more in price then the other. also the same reason why a Cadillac is more money then a Kia. i have owned about 8-12 Lehners and only 1 Kb motor. also if you are comparing the 3 motors the only one that would be mildy competative with the KB would be the 1950.. the 1950 is the same rough size of a 540 brushless XL motor such as a hacker 540 XL or a fireago the 2250 Lehner is alot of power. especialy if you are running two motors. I would suggest you stay with the Kb motors. Just to calify that again. the Kb motors can not hold a candle to a Lehner

RE: Thrust bearings
google : thrust bearing rc boat. google search http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=thrust+bearing+rc+boat&aq=f&oq=&aqi= first google search: http://www.rcboataholic.com/hardware/thrust%20bearing.htm Thrust Bearing The idea behind using a thrust bearing is to take the longitudinal load off of the motors bearings. The motors bearings are not designed to support a load parallel to the shaft (thrust). What they are designed to support is the loading perpendicular (radially) to the motor shaft. Drive Dog Gap When running a flex cable you need to leave a gap between the drive dog and the drive strut to allow for flexcable shorting due to the torsional load. This necessary gap in turns means that more of the propellers thrust is transferred up the flex cable to the motor shaft because its not directly bearing on the strut. Although at moderate levels this is OK it will wear out the motors bearings faster. So this is where the thrust bearing comes into play. Thust Bearing There are several types of thrust bearings, the ones I use include 3 separate parts. These parts include two hardened washers and a bearing ring (nylon or metal) with pressed in ball bearings (see picture). To use these you sandwich the bearing ring between the two washers which allows for free spinning while taking up the load. Thrust Bearing Installed You install a thrust bearing between the motor and the flex coupling. With it in place the prop thrust will be transferred to the motors case and not to its bearings. You can see the installed thrust bearing in the picture. Why not just have the drive dog push/rest on the strut? Remember when running a flex cable it shortens under the torsional (twist) load we put on them. So in this setup the thrust would be on the strut via the drive dog which a first sounds like a good thing. However remember that the flex shaft is getting shorter which significantly increases the driveline friction and increases the load on the flex which makes it want to shorten even more! This may even snap the flex or may it may just pull apart between the flex and the coupler.

RE: pics of the Rigger Insanity
unless your boat is a wire drive that inst always a good thing. to have bands in your shaft is okay. friction will be there weather you like it or not. but even more friction will come in the form of cable whip if you don't have enough of a bend in your stuffing tube. bends allow the cable to rest on something rather then whipping around and doing stuff like that. [quote]ORIGINAL: HOTWATER Hi Jake, You're stuffing tube seems to have a sharp bend in it. I guess it will work out ok though. I tried to keep mine as straight as possible with just a gradual bend to keep the friction down to a minimum . [/quote]
