I should asked this before buying (even two ) . Has anyone used this belt gearings for an aircraft like GP Ryan EP or Multiplex skycat ? i have it mount with a 12x8 and a 17T 540 LRP car motor powerd by 7 cells.

I haven't personally used it, but it is certainly a much used and beloved drive. Simple and cheap.

I know the Modelair tech drives are limited to about 20k shaft RPM or the belts can fly off...so I suggest that is a good practical limit.

Ask over in the power forum on ezones discussion groups at

I seem to recall some issues with flashing on the pulley needing to be tidied up.
