Now that I could get interested in. How hard will it be to remove that flywheel and mount flange so that there is a snowballs chance of hiding it close enough to the existing motor pocket in the back of a 7x to allow a slightly longer toothed belt work? I could find an extra inch under its position easily with a sabre saw as the so called chip pan is no longer under mine, much easier to clean under it w/o it. The existing motor is reversible via the usual DPDT relay bit which I have not wired back up since putting it under lcnc servo speed control, but what is that encoder looking bit on its butt? Brushless commutator? Or speed feedback to the controller? If no show stopper answers, I'll buy it now in the morning.
