  • I made a big boo boo



    I have glued both magnets south side up for the governer in my 700LE

    Any ideas how to get one out most welcome.

    They are stuck in with super glue, could I heat it up maybe? would this damage the bearing or clutch liner?

      One way is to drill a small on the other side of the bell and then you can push the magent out. Another way is to find the temperature that will kill the magnet and heat it up with a small torch. And the final way and the most expensive is to start again with all new parts.

        Acetone is cyanoacrylates big weakness.

        get some nail varnish remover off the missus, make sure it has acetone in it (some of the pink and fluffy ones don't now) and then soak a cotton bud in it and swab the magnet trying to get some underneath it and loosen it.

        Acetone can also eat some plastic so be careful.

              I did this and just used some super glue remover and drilled a small hole on the under side of the magnet.

                A quick tip:
                Put the magnets together and then mark the outer two faces with tipex or similar that won't rub off easily. These marked faces you either show or don't show when sticking in the fan or bell. Either way the faces will be opposite poles.

                    I have just seen this thread

                    http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/servos...r-magnets.html

                    and i am only assuming one is wrong because there are no marks. So to double check cound i just plug in the sensor and power to the g600 unit and see what happens to the light?

                      yes only one needs to be north facing the sensor, the other is used as a counter weight. The light will remain on but go off when the single magnet passes under the sensor it will go off.

                        Think I should go and buy a lotto ticket. Just tested it and I have one magnet north and one south.

                        How lucky is that!!!

                        Panic over lol

                          same thing happened to me actually, just stuck them in with out checking when building and when I finally looked at setting the gov up weeks later I realised that they need to be installed in a certain way and though oh buggar I have to take the engine out now but I was very lucky.
