Well my question is ,can you change out the force feedback motors ? I see they are 550 size . I know there are some real nice rc motors out there . So has anyone on here done this ? I have some 27 turn e-maxx motors that I would think have more power . The shafts on the e-maxx motors seem to be the same size as the ffb motors . 💡
 
It wont work you will be joining the many 100's of people looking for motor replacements.
The G25 comes with a stepper motor or something its called a Johnson Electric HC685LG-011.
So far I have tracked it down to within 100 miles of my location but I cant buy them as a pair.
They only sell them in huge quantities lowest amount I could find was 20,000 motors.
Apparently there used in loads of applications all over the world.

Its all about tracking them down to a seller of small amounts I gave up quite frankly, I just hit dead end after dead end trying to track down replacement motors.
 
:idea:I bet that jonhson motor is used for something other then steering wheels . I'm going to cut the wires on my old wheel (blue logitech I played on ps/2) and try one of them stock e-maxx motors :) can't hurt to try. Thanks for the quick replys.

Let us know how that goes, I wonder how the stronger motor would affect the calibration and the input to the game.

Somehow I am picturing an SNL like skit where you turn it on and it rips your hands right off your arms.

If that happens and he happens to be killed, I'll paypal some money to his family. :lol:
