What motor/esc?

John,

I don't know what scale you are going with but the helicopter main gear that I used on my crane might be in the ballpark for you mixer. And, I know you can get different sizes for the different model copters, and they are not that expensive.

This one fits a T Rex 500.



If you have a space under the frame or in the cab I would try and use a servo converted to continuous rotation and then make a fles shaft to run up to the gear and put a pinion on the end of the shaft.

Hey thanks a lot Jim. I was thinking of the servo idea, and it would take less room as far as another esc and motor. BTW, it will be 1/14 scale. I am curious where you got the gear, I would like to take a look at their web site.

Thank you, Big John

John,

I grabbed a two pack off the rack at my local hobby shop. Here is a pic of the header from the pack.

You will probably find hundreds of different ones here...
