Well I got my Xnova motor shafts today and put one in. Only did one flight but it seems this is the answer because when I pulled the pinion the shaft looked fine and by feel I could not discern a ridge on the edge of where the OWBs run. I was able to score this shaft with a file though so I don't think it is hardened as much as it could be.

I also have some 60+ rockwell hardness shaft coming and may end up using that instead.

But I will fly more flights on this stock motor shaft and see how it wears. I did clean the pinion OWB and re-oiled it with synthetic 10-40w amsoil as well.

This is my motor shaft of stock MSH motor. It looks like the inner rings of bearing does not really fit to the shaft.

I got 100 flights only.

I'm not sure, this was a note from last year. Maybe I come back in fall.

I'v reopened the Motor after 15 flights again. The new motor shaft looks like the same.

Maybe 3 800 blades are to much for the Protos Max and the drive system. I should go back to 2 blades only.

Next time you replace the shaft and bearings, I would use green loctite between shaft and inner bearing race to prevent bearing slip as much as possible.

does your one way slip? Mine looks exactly the same, but I never had any issues with one way slipping, so I guess it's all good.

Xnova makes them for all applications for their own motors since there are other options as well
