Hi guys! When I bought this Turnigy motor I also got the little ring you see in the pictures that can be fixed on the shaft with a little screw.
But how can I use it? Of course it has to have some kind of purpose but I haven’t found it out (so far).
Very odd piece. Unfortunately never seen that shipped with a motor before. At least the ones I ordered from Maytech didn’t though. looks it was to be used as a pulley sorts but no teeth for that purpose. My best guess is it was an error on the manufacturer’s part that left it there by accident. Doesn’t appear to serve any purpose for us as far as I can observe
I also haven´t seen it before.
could be some kind of distance holder.
I don´t know of any purpose for it.
important just that there is this black circle ring behind on the shaft.
That’s usually used to prevent the motor can/axis from moving when there is no circlip. Since this motor has a circlip, that ring is not needed. The SK8 for example needs a modification like this.
@Static has the correct part. They are used to hold stuff at a certain point upon a shaft or to keep it from sliding further down. You don’t need it, but an RC vehicle might.
