Why do you need a new armature? If the comm is worn down, you might be able to find a 17 turn single from another brand, and that will probably work with a few shims here and there. If it came apart (wires) Just wind it up again with new ones.

i remember seeing them, bit the might have been discontinued, how many turns does you esc handle?

if your going to get a new arm, kick it up a notch![>:]

but trinity does make a 17t double arm, same brand, so same dimensions.
get brushes if you havent already

the single and double are the actual number of copper strands on the armature.

u can go to a 15t arm if your need to
