You mean this one ?
It's a 30cc Airframe I've got it in peices at the moment varnishing the windings in the motor to try and hold them still. I think that the wire might be moving around making all those funny noises when it's flying. I've tried heaps of things to find out where the whining nosies come from, I've even searched the air frame for stray cats.
Both G160 powered Yaks do the same thing so it will be interesting to see what sound yours makes when it's flying ?
If it doesn't stop the crazy noises it will still be an improvement, well according to our Ace motor people here at work motors work much better when the windings are potted with Epoxy and they should know a thing or two about brushless motors, they've made some the best.
