I have recently found a web site selling lots of stuff for small model aircraft called robot birds. (not that sort Craig) They sell quite a range of small brushless motors (down to 12mm dia) and the LiPo batteries and chargers. The site is http://www.robotbirds.com. I have just ordered a couple of there brushless motor kits where you get a CDrom motor that has been rewound. You then replace the old continuous magnet with 24 individual magnets supplied and you end up with a much more powerful brushless motor. I hope to be able to build one double ended motor for my new version of MutANT.

Anybody had any troubles with deliveries lately? I've made a few orders lately, and of the first 2 to arrive, both were wrong. Dycem sent me a jar opener when I ordered a roll of non-slip matt, and SMC completely forgot a RX from my order.

What's going on!

No lately all my deliveries have been very prompt. I have just got some small bearings from acr eurotrade. Unfortunatly their website is still underconstruction but they do some superb tiny bearings which I found in their catalogue which came free with a magazine. I got some 2mm ID 5mm OD that weigh less than 0.3gms and they even go down to 1mm ID 3mm OD. http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/

One of the times we spoke previously you were looking for small bearings for a FBS.

Not this time I am playing with a new barrel type spinner for MutANT but it is not going too well at the moment.

Finally! I found a supplier for model-sized aluminium and plastic timing pulleys and belts. You can visit the website here, although most of it is under construction atm: http://www.shgmodels.com/acatalog/

I contacted them by E-mail and they sent me there catalog page for timing pulleys and belts, as the link for it on the website is broken, and I've uploaded it to my server so anyone interested can see it while they try to fix the problem: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/sandra.arthurs/CatalogueTimingbelts_PulleysMarch05.doc

Hope to be ordering some soon, so if anyone's interested I'll let you know what I think of them when I get them.
