Maybe this one - Cobalt 25: http://www.astroflight.com/index.php...products_id=85

but since I don't know what physical size yours is... you need to check whether it is a 25 or the larger 40.

That size and with that connector it looks more like one of their industrial motors based on the "40" size frame. To tell remove the armature and see what turn count and wire gage was used. It will be marked on the laminations.

All the best,

It is hard to tell the exact length - that's a nickel isn't it? (~21mm). The Astro site doesn't give the length of a 40 motor by itself (only the geared length)... but the weight should be a give-away... according to Astroflight a 25 is 12oz, a 40 is 15oz. (with gearbox, add another 2oz in each case)

Weight is a good size class determiner. That looks like a US quarter on my browser.

Your are correct... I was looking at new quarters which have "Quarter Dollar" beneath the head... older ones have the date... nickels have nothing.
