Traxxas Velineon 380 Manual De Instrucciones

Velineon 380 Brushless Motor Instructions
and long run times. Smooth-running performance is built in with ultra high-
temperature sintered Neodymium magnets, high-speed ball bearings, and a
precision balanced rotor.
The Velineon 380 can be used with many after-market brushless electronic
speed controls, but is designed to work with the Traxxas VXL-3m Electronic
Speed Control for optimal speed and efficiency. The key to the Velineon's
extreme power output is total system optimization. Each component is
carefully engineered to work with the other system components to eliminate
restriction and allow maximum power flow.

Installation In Traxxas 1/16 Scale Models
These instructions are for motor
installation in Traxxas 1/16
models. If you are installing
the Velineon 380 motor in a
non-Traxxas model, consult
your vehicle's manual for proper
motor installation information.
To access the motor, remove the gear cover by
removing the single screw on the top of the gear
cover. The motor uses an aluminum mount for
quick, easy motor access and gearing adjustment.
To remove the motor, first open the right battery
door and slide out the ESC. Next, remove the single
large hex screw using a 2.5mm wrench. Then rotate
the motor and mount to the side of the model, and
slide backward off the post.
The motor mount has been carefully engineered to
provide additional features and adjustability. Two sets of holes
are provided for use with brushed and brushless motors. The
holes for brushed motors are spaced 16mm apart and accept
2.5mm screws. The holes for brushless motors are spaced
19mm apart and accept 3mm screws.

Wiring Diagram
Follow the wiring diagram below for installing the Velineon 380 with a
VXL-3m Electronic Speed Control. For other speed controls, consult the
manufacturer's instructions.
Adjusting Gear Mesh
Incorrect gear mesh is the most common cause of
stripped spur gears. Gear mesh should be checked
and adjusted anytime a gear is replaced. To access
the gears of your Traxxas 1/16 model, remove the
single screw on the top gear cover.
To set the gear mesh, cut a narrow strip of
notebook paper and run it into the gear mesh of
the motor. The motor is mounted to an aluminum
motor mount. Loosen the single motor mount
screw with a 2.5mm wrench to slide the motor
mount. Slide the motor and pinion gear into the
spur gear. Retighten the motor mount screw and
then remove the strip of paper. You should be
able to run a fresh strip of paper through the gears
without binding them.
If you are planning to operate the motor at the higher limits of its
capabilities, cut ventilation holes into your model's Lexan® body to
provide cooling airflow.
Monitor motor temperature to prevent overheating. The motor
should not exceed 200° F. If the motor reaches 200° F under normal
driving conditions, the model may be over-geared or the drivetrain
may be binding. Install a smaller pinion or larger spur gear and check all
rotating parts for free operation.
It is important to monitor motor temperature
to ensue peak performance and maximum
motor life. An on-board temperature gauge such as
the Traxxas part #4091 can aid you in monitoring
your motor's temperature.
