      Oops, meant the circlip was at the non-rotating end. But now it's been mentioned, maybe not all motors have them. I'll check later scorpion.jpg

        I couldn't look in the motor as I couldn't see how it comes apart,no grub screws to be seen anywhere.

        If the esc produced smoke you would be able to smell it yeah?

        Had esc off last night and it smelt fine.
        Align motors are different from the scorp motors which are easy. Some have a grub screw or two at the opposite end from the pinion which are visible in the air vents to unscrew. You then need to push the shaft out from the bottom of the can with a press or vice. There is no easy way to get to the stator and magnets I'm afraid.

              So you came out with something else tucked under your arm. I know that feeling.

                    The shafts are reusable. It's just a press fit into the can with the bearings in either end of the stator. Have you returned the motor?? What's the kv difference between the 450l motor and the older 450mx 6s motor?

                      450 MX = 1700Kv
                      450 Dominator = 1800Kv
