To keep your brushless motor operating at maximum performance, it is important that the bearings in your motor be properly maintained. This is especially true of helicopter motors that often spin in excess of 45,000 RPM. In an average flight, a helicopter motor spins around almost a quarter million times! Without proper lubrication, the balls in the bearings can wear out quickly, leading to premature failure.

Scorpion Motor Bearing Lubrication Kit
A motor bearing lubrication kit to help extend the life of the bearings in your Scorpion brushless motor. This kit contains a 25cc bottle of bearing lubricant and two needle point applicator nozzles. One nozzle is 1" long, and will work with the 22mm and 30mm motors, and the other nozzle is 1.5" long to use with 40mm and larger motors.
The oil included in the kit is a special product that actually bonds to the metal parts, and resists being thrown out by the high speed and centrifugal forces inside the bearings. A small drop placed on each bearing about once every 10 flights is enough to maintain proper lubrication to insure the longest possible life for your motor bearings.. The oil is safe for use on Acrylics, Polyester, Nylon, Vinyl, Delrin, Teflon, Formica, Polyethylene and Polypropylene. It is also safe on most painted surfaces. There is no visible effect on Buna-N, Viton or Neoprene rubber products, so it is safe around most fuel lines, o-rings and other rubber products.

Scorpion motors are built with hardened steel shafts that will last through countless hours of flying fun, but occasionally, on a "Less than Perfect" landing, you may bend or break one. For these occasions, we offer factory replacement shafts for all the Scorpion Motors. The 22mm, 30mm and 40mm motor shaft kits include an original equipment factory shaft with the setscrew keyways already cut, a new shaft retaining collar, and a replacement setscrew for the retaining collar. The HK 22mm series shafts are retained by a setscrew at the can end and a circlip at the output shaft end.
Note: The shafts in all Scorpion motors are a slight press fit into the aluminium front housing. The shafts will not just slide out when the setscrews are removed. They need to be pressed out in a bearing press, or in a drill press, with the front housing of the motor supported in a block of wood to prevent warping the front housing. This document explains the technique for using a pillar drill to change a motor shaft.

In order to keep your motor in top running condition, you need a good set of bearings. Occasionally, after a crash or landing in the dirt, the bearings can become damaged and need to be replaced. The Scorpion Motor Bearing Kits contain exact replacement bearing sets to bring your motor back to top condition. Note: The bearings are an exact fit into the motor housings, so they do fit snugly. When removing the old bearings, you may need to gently tap them out. However, when installing the new bearings, do not tap them in with anything, as this can dent the ball races and ruin the bearings. When installing ball bearings they need to be pressed in by the outer part of the race. Never apply pressure to the inner race, as this can damage the bearing and lead to premature failure. Regular application of a light motor oil (e.g as contained in the Motor Lubrication Kit is recommended for long bearing life.

The Scorpion Cross Mount is designed to fit the back of the Scorpion motors and provide a method for mounting the motor to a model's firewall. The Scorpion Stick Mount is designed to fit to the back of a 22mm motor and provide a mounting point to a 10mm or 3/8" square motor mount stick. All Scorpion mounts are made from strong aluminium alloy and finished in a durable and attractive black Electro-Coat finish. To finish off the look, the Scorpion Logo is laser engraved on the side of the mount to match your Scorpion Motor. The mount comes packaged with four 3mm machine screws to attach it to the back of your motor.
