im sorry, my terminology is off. I was referring to the bearing that the rotor sits on that allows it to spin.

I know there has been discussion on whats best to use but i dont remember him saying which he had actually used

Hi Gyula


Got most test/measurement meters this end, but a LC Meter is one thing I have not yet invested in.

Sorry mate

Cheers

Sean.

Hi Sean,

excellent work mate

Here's an LCR Meter for $17. delivered: http://cgi.ebay.com/LCR-RCL-INDUCTANCE-CAPACITANCE-RESISTANCE-METER-W-Leads-/260749773429?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb5e5ca75

It's not worth doing without at this price.

Thanks for sharing mate

Use something like this  http://www.bocabearings.com/bearing-inventory/Radial-Bearings/2318/SR8ZZ7-05000x11250x03125

his still had a good bit of drag in them
if you blow up the pix of the shaft and bearing
you will see. these will be even better for output

I would pay attention to the thickness to match your rotor, what bothers me is there's no way to keep the bearing from floating up or down the shaft it needs a set screw I believe when everyone starts tuning their rigs the bearing and its adjustment will be a problem if not address at the start of the build.

You are correct Dave45
