Simon Hall 2 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Looking for a possible alternative direct replacement to the standard eflite which is expensive and out of stock in the UK. It will be running with a Turnigy plush 40 ESC.Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangster Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Suggest you ring BRC hobbies and they will talk it through with you. Might help if you have details like weight of model prop size shaft size etc ready if asked. An eMax motor will cost considerably less than an eflite and are perfectly fine other equally knowledgeable and helpful dealers exist just suggesting my first choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hopkin Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Do you know which eflite motor it is? that would then give us an idea of the power requirements etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony F Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 It's a PKZ4716 order number. Google that and you should get a hit. Can't post a link as you can't when on a mobile phone.Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Hall 2 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 Standard UK Parkzone Radian motor maybe PKZ4716 or PKZ4416, not sure. Either way it's expensive at over £50 for the original. Hoping there is a cheaper decent alternative I can just buy and fit without having to take it apart and modify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Hall 2 Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Thanks, contacted BRC today. They may have an alternative, but it's heavier and more powerful. Waiting on details. Had a look around and maybe the items below could work. I have 2 Radians, so was thinking of buying 2 adapters and maybe 3 motors, so 2 as spares. The adapters are not cheap and from the US, but look good quality. Horizon hobby are waiting on stock of the more expensive Eflite units and all UK suppliers appear to be out of stock. Waiting on a reply from the eBay seller on compatibility and ease of fitting with this motor. **LINK** **LINK** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
