Hi Paul. Not sure if there is something wrong with your web site but some of your motors appear awfully cheap !!

Gulp! We have just carried out a major upgrade to the shop software and yes something has gone wrong - big time. Thank you for pointing this out, now just need to sort out why.

Many thanks again.

Hi Chris,

All sorted now, looks like we have been virtually giving stuff away for the last few days, over 1400 products were incorrectly priced with some products 1/4 of their normal selling price. It would be fair to say that we owe you one!

I am making a pitching machine. throwing ball of 150 grams.
I am thinking of using the MY7618M1 motor. But it would be nice if you had something with at least 5000RPM, or I would have to use a larger wheels.
Can the wheels you have be mounted directly to the shaft or would I need shaft extensions, I am worried about vibrations, the wheel would be spinning at a lot of RPM.

thank you for your answer,
Rok

Rob,

You did not leave an Email address so unable to send you a reply.

You did not mention which wheels but as it happens, most of our wheels need modifying if you need them driven by the axle.

Vibration could be an issue and none of our wheels are specifically designed for running at such high rpm's so exercising caution would be advisable.

Hi Craig,

As we have been unable to resolve difficulties with the Chinese manufacturer, we will not be getting any more of the Unite motors in unless circumstances change.

Very sorry we cannot help.

Regards

Paul
