Amain hobby has bearings, I think they come in a bag of 4.. You will want 3x8x4mm bearings. You may find them cheaper somewhere but these are good bearings and not that expensive. There are also cheap complete sets on e-bay, but I don't know the quality. The ones at Amain are Align.I got into a pretty nasty crash and while I have all the bearings I lost a thrust washer and retainer clip. Anyone know where I can buy just these parts? Complete bearing sets are sort of expensive.
Thanks!
Why would one buy new bearings when you can get new motors for about $16 a piece? I forget some like to tinker![]()
Still, you must like tinkering a LOT more than me, I hated opening the case and replacing a motor. I'd have paid someone to do it except they weren't available at the time. I want to do one thing with my drone... fly it.Not just tinkering but quick look around indicates you can buy a large number of bearings for around the cost of 1 motor. When it comes to BLDC motors, bearings = the only wear item. So as long as the windings aren’t damaged/burned why not keep it spinning?
