Assembly Instructions
|
1) Use the provided #4 Screws or M3 x 8mm Fasteners & M3 Locknuts to mount the Motor Base. You may be only able to use two #4 Screws or two M3 Fasteners depending on your setup.
|
2) Insert the 2812 Motor into the Motor Base. (It may be easier to skip to step #4 and do steps #2 & #3 last).
|
|
3) Use 2x M3 Fasteners and the Phillips screwdriver to tighten the 2812 Motor in place. The M3 Fasteners should only be snug. If they are over tightened, the motor wont spin freely and it could damage the bearings beneath.
It is recommended to use a thread locker to keep the screws from loosening themselves due to motor vibration. Check fasteners periodically to make sure they have not become loose or missing.
|
4) Get two M3 x 6mm Fasteners and a prop saver. Place the prop saver on the Shaft and tighten the M3 Fastener tightly on the appropriate location on the shaft.
|
|
5) Get a propeller (**Sold separately on our website) and a Phillips screwdriver.
The prop saver is designed to allow the propeller to fold back when it hits the ground, so the motor shaft does not bend. To properly mount the prop saver, place it towards the tip of the shaft. The prop saver should not be too far out that the propeller wobbles when it spins, but not too far back that the prop cannot fold back.
You can also mount the prop paver against the motor housing if you do not want the propeller to fold back. This can be useful on pod mounted airplanes where you know the prop will not impact the ground upon landing. 
|
6) Use the Phillips screwdriver to put the O-Ring Over the propeller. This will secure the propeller to the 2812 Motor.
|
|
7) This is what the assembly should look like when you are done.
|
8) Plug in your Motor into a 30A or higher rated ESC.
|
*If all the rubber O-Rings break you can purchase more online. However, using a rubber band works just as well. Take one end and hook it on the prop saver Fastener and continue to wrap the rubber band back and forth between the two fasteners.
