Nightshade: are you talking about the phoenix HV 85 or all the phoenix controllers? I agree that they sound too good to be true and seem too small for such amps. I haven't found any reviews on them, s ...

Magmotor is a 3.5HP motor with a lot more torque then 3 Speed 900's. Magmotor would draw less amperage too. I'd have to say that the only thing in comparison that the Speed 900's going for them is tha ...

It may not be of much help to you now, but you could replace the mag with 3 speed 900 torque motors. they can run at up to 40 v. if you'd use 3 on 24 v, that would give you almost 1.4 kW Very Happy. They're o ...

You'd better watch out with the zoom 400 and all the 400 copies, the tal gears are known to be very weak. Not so long ago, they flew one on tv, and suddenly, the tailgears broke Shocked . Luckilly th ...

I don't know any translational spinner designs that run Omni wheels. I believe they arn't used because they don't provide the traction that a translational spinner needs to spin up quick.

I would t ...
