REFLECTOR: Another Step

[garyglasair at aol.com]

I have been trying to be removed from the Velocity E mail list with no success. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Gary

I have my holder about 1/16" from the slip rings.  The threaded rod that the brush holder is mounted on is mounted on the other end in a slotted bracket so I can adjust it.  There is enough give in the mount so I can spring the brush holder away from the hub slightly and see that the brushes remain in contact with the slip rings.  This is my preflight test to make sure that the brushes aren't worn to far for the next flight.

Larry, 


Thanks. Fabbing my coil mount now. How far away from the contact rings is the edge of your brush holder housing?

Kurt,
  
 
  
I know John had problems with his brushes but I am using the IVO supplied   ones without problems for over six years.

Feels like I accomplished     something today. Got the 76" 3-blade Constant speed Ivo Magnum installed     & torqued. Then set the re-drive belt play. Now, have to Fab. an adapter     to hold the brushes & pickup coil. 
    
 
    
Onward!

The   brushes IVO supplies are small for the amount of current needed.  I   recommend you get larger, copper-containing brushes.  Alternatively you   might consider my non-brush modification that's working very   well.
