JeffyPlease, tell me about this hubmotor. It looks very unique and has the potential to save a lot of weight and space.

AlexHi'm bad at explaining things so read this instructable about hubmotors http://www.instructables.com/id/Make...b-Motor/#intro
i actually did not make the hubmotor, i bought it from the guy who wrote the instructable on it. i really don't have the patience to wind motors...

JeffyVery cool, thanks. It seems like a simple concept. I even got to know an LRK winding pretty well when rewinding an ebay motor for a 150g about 6 years go. If it runs astray, gobrushless.com has lots of supplies to make your own (or repair).

AlexHi was going to make the hubmotor myself but it was cheaper and easier for me to buy it from him when he was clearing out old projects.
