Brushless?

engmedic19 · 02-22-2006, 02:57 PM

Has anyone installed a brushless motor on their eflite blade cp? How about a 370 brushless? Any thoughts? I'm new to all this heli stuff. Thanks

actually i know some one who put in a eflite 370 inrunner on the heli, and changed the whole tail section to a ducted fan type, and i dont think he likes it THAT much, but i guess he likes it a little bit. Its not as stable.

I saw one with a park 370 mounted to it. You either have to be handy with a soldering iron and a bit creative, or you need to remove the 4-in-1 and get a seperate gyro, esc's, etc.
If you look at the 4-in1, you'll see open plug recepticals on the right side. Which ever one lines up with the plug for the main motor on the other side is the one you need to solder the signal lead of the esc to. The one I saw also had the negative soldered to it, I believe, but definitely not all three. I have the diagram at home somewhere if you need to know. Besides that, all you have to do is make a plug up so that power from the battery goes to both the esc and the 4-in-1 and you're set.

As far as power, it is quite noticeable and its smoother...

Thanks bodywerks, I may have you dig it out. I will let you know. Thanks

I'm pretty sure it was the positive that was not soldered to the circuitboard.
