-updated 16 JUN 00-

I talked with Hank Fasola [Mr. 'VL'] this week. He is recovering from cancer surgery and production of the VL HY50B motors, as used in the Skylark and the new Lancer, has resumed.

The VL HY50B is an impressive little motor/planetary gearbox combination. It has carbon block brushes and a built-in .04 capacitor! It can be run on the 6" Tern Aero prop, the VL 7.25" X 4.5" prop and numerous others in this size range. The motor is being operated on 8 120mah nicad cells on the Lancer and Hank tells me it can be used with up to 10 cells.

Here's a picture of the HY50B:

You can buy the motor direct [send check or money order]:
