Upgrade to a Brushless MAIN Motor System for your E-Sky Honey Bee V1 35Mhz/72Mhz/2.4Ghz 4-channel
Electric Helicopter.
(This modification has not been tested for the 2.4Ghz Spektrum Tx/Rx)

    Why convert to a brushless motor system ?

    The motors are lighter and more efficient than a regular carbon brushed motor.  The carbon brushed motors heat up during flight and heat sinks are
    required.  You also have to wait until the motor cools down before flying again otherwise risk the longevity of the carbon brushed motor.  Brushless
    motors run cool to the to the touch.  No more heat sink heats

    Because the brushless motor are governed by an ESC, there is less strain on the Rx, reducing RF noise and glitches.

    No more fuse is required between the main motor and Rx since the ESC will bear the brunt of the backlash.  The MOSFET circuit in the ESC should be
    able to handle most crashes without possible burnout to your RX.  However, you still need an ATO 3 Amp Fast blow fuse for the tail motor since the tail
    motor is still carbon brushed.

    The typical 370 carbon brushed motor lasts on average about 150 flights using an 11.1 volt LIPO battery before burnout.  A brushless motors has no
    brushs to wear out.  Hence a virtual long life span. Which means you can fly all day as long as you keep on changing the LIPO battery.

    Finally, the brushless motor looks cooler as they are CNC machined made to precision.

    We have spent alot of time testing various brushless motors.  Too strong of a motor will cause spinning and too weak will not give you the proper lift.  
    We needed to find a brushless motor that would give the same characteristics as a regular 370 carbon brushed motor but slightly stronger to
    accomodate the extra weight from the ESC and metal upgrades on the heli.

    What's required for the conversion ?

    First, it is necessary to have the fuse mod installed for the carbon brushed tail motor as it can still burnout the MOSFET in your Rx on a severe crash.  
    The main brushless motor is governed by the ESC, so you will not need a fuse mod for the main motor as the ESC will burnout if you have a severe
    crash thus protecting the Rx.  However you will still need a fuse mod for the tail motor.  Also, no more heat sinks are required as the motor is air cooled
    when it spools up.  Next, while the system can work using a 7.4 volt LIPO, we highly recommend the 11.1 volt 1,000 Mah 25c LIPO battery.  It is the
    optimal battery for providing the necessary power to the brushless motor and ESC.  It will also provide a good counter balance weight for the CG of the
    heli.  While most systems just require a brushless motor and an electronic speed controller (ESC).  The Integrated four in one receivers require a
    special signal converter.  So basically you will need three items to complete a brushless motor system. You need a brushless motor with the correct
    pinion,  the proper electronic speed controller (ESC), and the special signal converter.  You will also need to connect the brushless motor and program
    the electronic speed controller properly.  

    Why buy from us ?

    While other competitors claim to be kits and may cost slightly less, they are not  because they are not fully integrated.  We  have basically done all of  the
    soldering work,  ESC programming, JST power plug installation, and pre-wiring.  We include all the necessary hardware like the motor screws, 10t
    pinion, and the nylon ties.  All you have to do is just install using a screwdriver for replacing the carbon brushed motor with the new brushless motor,
    install the grub screw pinion, and follow where to connect the various connectors with the provided instructions.  

Here is the video of a wicked short flight using the modified brushless main motor.  The video will show how fast this bird can move and
climb.  You can hear the brushless motor just purr with the same power as with the
370  carbon brushed mod. The brushless motor will
work with a 7.4 volt LIPO, but we recommend that you use the
11.1 volt  1,000Mah LIPO..  We have the Super Skids 300 installed to
accomodate the LIPO battery tray system for better CG. For the Flaming Red Canopy and blades
