Himax 6330-210 Front Mount Conversion

Himax 6330-210 Front Mount Conversion

This is a new device that allows for the mounting of the motor on the front eliminating the need for a rear firewall. Now you get the ease of a front mount install versus the difficulty of a firewall rear mount.

It replaces the shaft on the stock motor.
The shaft is really neat as the distance from the motor to the back thrust washer is adjustable making the install and subsequent changes a lot easier.
Now you get the best of both worlds.

This conversion kit only adds 5 grams to the total weight less the bearing on the back of the shaft which is optional.
The Himax 210Pro motor is very powerful with the new lighter weight 20 magnet design. It's combination of power, low weight and reliability make it perfect for your 2 meter pattern plane as well as any E. conversion 15 pounds (7500kg) or less.
Instructions below are included with every order.
