Neu 22XX motors fatal design, check your setups!!!

Thread Starter

This is important info for all 22XX owners, someone might get killed getting a Neu (un)powerd plane in the head.
I've not posted anything about this before as I wanted to give Steve a chance to pay for my expences and apologize... but he choose not to, even though it is his bad engineering skills who caused my setup to burn.
Funny thing this is NOT the first time, a friend got his motor damaged twice from Neu(maybe he will chip in too), still he continues selling them. The only offer I got was to ship the motor back so he could relocate the screws causing the fire...
Neu says they test all motors, and I believe them. But after installning it in the plane wiggeling the cables once or twice the motor was shortend by the screws holding the end cap, where Steve also been kind enough to put tie straps to make sure you get 100% rubbing against the screws :censored:
Steves ridiculous engineering skills costed me my $907 ESC where of he has no plans to compensate me ...just offering to relocate the screws... which after several other failed motor should not have been there in the first place. Luckily I never got the plane of the ground.
If you do something wrong YOU STAND FOR IT!!! as simple as that!!


I can not even use the motor as a paper weight as it's round and rolls away...

Send me the motor, I'll figure out something to do with it. Can't be chancing you getting killed by it.
What kind of $907.00 ESC did the bad old Neu motor destroy?

Get yourself a high-tech turdagy motor and ESC. Leave the bad old Neu to guys that know what they're doing.

Any ideas for the best solution? thinking the forces on the endcap is rather small and it would work without those three screws too? what do you think?

Best solution for you. No danger of you killing someone with your Neu powered airplane.
