John, I take it you are in the UK?
I wouldn't mind trying a Lynch motor, but over here the price is about 3x what a Motenergy BLDC motor goes. I already have 3 BLDC controllers, but the only PWM brushed motor controller I have only rates for 1kw so I would also have to buy yet another controller. It is quite attractive, having the built in thrust bearing and a firm axial load rating, I must say. Brushed motors are no longer an issue with me because I no longer have any propane or gasoline aboard except for a propane grill on the pushpit rail. I don't even keep a spare cannister. So no safety issues with brushes, here. I cook on diesel, though I do have a couple of alcohol stoves that I seldom use.
The Lynch motors have 1" shafts? It says there are shaft options but I don't see them.
So let's say I cut one of my 14x10 props down to 12", go with a top sustained RPM of 1000, stick with the 48v bank, what Lynch motor do you think would best suit my needs? I dont even see HP rating on their site. They really have very little info there. I don't know anything about all that newton stuff. I guess they aren't really trying to capture the US market.
