After many hours looking I cant seem to find a decent 5 kW BLDC motor that is lightweight, can carry a sprocket, IP rated and doesnt cost the earth. Is this a unreasonable request, or are others looking for something similar?
I have come to the conclusion that the only way I am going to get this, is if I make something myself. So what I was thinking was to use a 12090 outrunner, enclose it with a thick core which get larger to form a heatsink. I could then run the shaft out of the rear to drive a fan.
I was just wondering if anyone else has done anything similar, or whether anyone would be interested in one if I got more than 1 made.
