We are still currently shipping as normal during the pandemic. However delivery times may take a little longer than usual during this period. We generally ship items within 24 hours of receiving your order. We do not however have any control over delays with couriers delivering your goods. Many thanks for your understanding during this difficult time.
THE WORLDS MOST POWERFUL X-CLASS MOTOR.
STYLE - POWER - MODULAR
UNIQUE
UNMATCHED
DESIGN
X-CLASS REINVENTED
THE MOST POWERFUL X-CLASS MOTOR IS NOW IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP.
WE SET OUT TO DESIGN THE MOST POWERFUL X-CLASS MOTOR THAT WILL DOMINATE THE FIELD.
CUSTOM DESIGNED
5025 STATOR
WE DESIGNED OUR METHOD X MOTOR AROUND OUR VERY OWN CUSTOM MADE STATOR, THIS IS THE RESULT OF COUNTLESS HOURS OF R&D AND RESEARCH, USING OUR DECADES OF EXPERIENCE. WE THEN HAND WIND THE STATOR WITH A HIGH TEMPERATURE RESISTANT SINGLE WIND. THIS DESIGN IN CONJUNCTION WITH MAGNET CHOICE GIVES US UNMATCHED POWER IN THE INDUSTRY.
THE STATOR DESIGN
AFTER ALMOST A YEAR OF R&D AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF MANY NEW DESIGN FEATURES.
REMOVEABLE ANTI PROP SLIP PLATE
SIMPLE CLIP IN DESIGN FOR QUICK FITTING.
NO TOOLS REQUIRED SIMPLY LOCK IT INTO PLACE TO SECURE. EASY TO CHANGE OUT IN THE EVENT OF DAMAGE AND ALLOWS QUICK ACCESS TO THE SHAFT AND ACCESS TO THE SUMP FOR ADDITION OF RACEX OIL.
SOLID CNC CONTRUCTION AND PRECISE
FITTING.
JUST CLIP IT IN
INDUSTRY FIRST
EASY TO REMOVE SHAFT
ONE OF THE FEATURE WE REALLY WANTED ON OUR MOTOR WAS THE ABILITY TO REBUILD IT. THIS NEGATES THE NEED TO CONTINUE BUYING THINGS THAT YOU DO NOT REQUIRE. OUR SHAFT IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF THIS. IT SIMPLY SCREWS INTO PLACE AND IS REMOVABLE IN JUST A FEW SECONDS.
REDUCING THE COST OF REPLACEMENTS AND ALLOWING EASY ACCESS FOR FAST MAINTENANCE
INDUSTRY FIRST
JUST UNSCREW IT
A WHOLE RAFT OF INDUSTRY FIRST DESIGNS AND PATENTS - DRIVING X-CLASS INTO THE FUTURE
ACTIVE CHOKE POINT TECHNOLOGY
KO tech is the very first motor company to incorporate a cooling system to RC brushless motors that does not rely on fans or fin style designs .
The traditional fan or fin styled design calls for a fan machined in to the bell (on the inside or outside of the bell). This method has 2 major flaws. Firstly this design is" handed " meaning cw rotating motors must have a fan design orientated differently to a ccw rotating motor if the fan is to be effective. Secondly a fan or fan shaped spokes design robs the motor of power to drive the fan and In turn lowering response times, ultimate RPM and ultimate available torque.
KO Tech has developed ACPC to compress oncoming air directly at the bell spoke face, forcing the air past the spokes and directly into the stator and magnet assembly.
This lowers the temps, increases torque and dramatically increases response times all the way along the rpm range. As a bonus the angled ring that forms the ACPC design is used as a counter balance to reduce the amount of putty used to balance a motor bell.
We are able to "clock" the ACPC ring a full 360 ° during the balance procedure, effectively halving the amount of putty needed to achieve a reading of "True" on the test equipment . This allows us to further reduce the bells weight and in turn improve motor response times.
Lastly because of this ability to reduce the amount of balance putty putty needed, we have also been able to reduce the lip at the base of the motor. This is used as a rebate to retain the putty under high RPM centrifugal forces further reducing weight and Improving response times.
