2.3 to 3.17mm coupler

Betcha Joe could turn one for you,or open it up on the lathe.

Thank you, but like I said in the last post, the others I ordered from SicRc have shown up in the mail and I don't need any more at this time. Sdg

Thanks for the link, but they didn't have one that size. Had one that was close, but I don't want to drill one to fit. Those from SicRc finally showed up - had been lost in the mail I suppose. Appreciate it, Sdg.

Umm, Joe may have what you are after http://mbp-rc.de/Kupplung-32-x-22-mm_1
or http://mbp-rc.de/Kupplung-32-x-2-mm_2
or ask him,he may be able to crank one out for you.

Yeah, SicRc. A fouled up order is why I am looking for others. Thanks anyways, Alex!

Did a search on eBay in radio control section for 2.3mm and came up with one in Australia

Checked Etti's website... http://www.etti.com.hk/index.php?cPath=12 - either you go 3.17->2mm or 3.17->2.5mm - nothing in between

Yup. They're not easy to locate (except for the barbell shaped deal). I imagine a lot of Hobby Shops have a part that fits that description, but they don't know it. They just go by the name of the boat. A collet won't do here - it has to fit in a tight space - no way to tighten a collet.


Still looking..........

Thanks JW, but I've never had any luck doing that.

No prob, it was a freebie I was going to send your way had you asked for it. IF you F'ed it up modding, you wouldn't be out anything but a little time.

Personally, I prefer the collet style couplers, but that's just me.

Good luck in your search

I bought one of eBay it was approx 40mm and was crap just a heads up

Anyone know of a source for 2.3mm to 3.17mm (1/8) couplers? Not the (popular) barbell shaped ones from China - they aren't long enough.

I can help you if your willing to make a minor mod. I have a spare set screw coupler with dual screws on both sides(all 4 new SS), one side is 3.17mm, just tested it on a spare TRX Titan motor, the other side?? Very small(puny), you'll have to drill it out to 2.3mm. OAL = .980" (measured).

Your call...

Thanks anyways, Jim.

Edit1: This is just testing that theory on editing...I'll not fill in the box.

Edit2: Yes, you were right, Jim. Don't fill int the box and it won't show that you edited the post. Thank you.

Edit 3: Funny, in the Want To Buy section, it doesn't offer a box - and adds the "Last edited by..". Probably in the For Sale section too. So it's evidently software controllable.

don't know on the editing it never asked me for a reason I posted from my phone and didn't read your op correctly and tapatalk wouldn't let me edit it. By the way i checked my couplers ans all i have is 2.3 to .098

Actually if I go down further below the edit window there is a space for reason for editing must not be mandatory for editing your own post. I know when I edit someone posts or close or delete a post i have to give a reason

[sundog]

Yes, I have had Jeff make me some in the past, but don't want to wait for fabrication.........any one else?

BTW, why is it that when you (Jim) edit your post, it doesn't show 'reason for editing' like everyone else's? Yes, I know 1/8 is .125"

[JimClark]

Jeff Wholt can make them. I might have one but not sure
