Replacement motor for Stigma Bizarre

[ssmith297]

Got a somewhat gutted Stigma Bizarre in a trade at work. Been sitting in the drawer, and I really want to get it up and running. Pretty much all it's missing is the motor, and I was wondering if there was anywhere US based I can get a motor for this? (maxon, mabuchi, etc). I'm handy with tools and soldering/welding so getting a motor attached isn't a problem for me, just getting the motor itself is!

V1 or V2? I have always wanted a V1 myself.

Regardless I believe it uses a maxon motor. Although you could use a faulhaber of the same size as a replacement. Most likely has a 1.5mm shaft diameter and 17-20mm outer diameter. This is just a guess, but I imagine I am close.

Your might want to ask them directly. I believe they still sell replacement motors.

Is a good place to look for something with close specs. So is eBay of course I would measure the cavity as best I can in mm. Most of these motors are in metric. Hope that helps.

Here are the parts straight from Stigma.

Ah I was hoping to buy locally since I always seem to get horrible luck with customs. The motor length/diameter seems to be 25mm/17mm. It's a Stigma Bizarre V2. I'd really like to find something like a Mabuchi or Faulhauber that would work with it. Had a NeoTaT with a Mabuchi motor and then a newer one with Maxon, I just don't like how maxon runs.

Faulhaber 1724 should fit. It is the same motor as the rapier II or the 1717 I believe is the model the dragonfly uses. The link I posted for surplus motors is a US sales website. eBay again is always an option.

Graupner also makes a model 180 speed that is supposed to be about 17mm x 18mm that might fit. They run about 10$ and have a max voltage of 7.5 volts roughly. But I wouldn't guarantee that it would fit. I have no experience with this motor at all.

Any clue where I can order the Faulhaber motor, and if Mabuchi might have a motor that fits it?

Still trying to find a mabuchi motor that might fit it even with a bit of rigging if anyone has any suggestions!

Guess I can always buy a few sizes of mabuchis and give it a swing, if it doesn't work no skin off my back I suppose, those motors are pretty cheap.

There is a model that might fit. But it has a diameter of 15mm ( assuming the one you are replacing is 17mm ) so you will have to shim it in. I don't remember the model number. Google is your friend. So is the mabuchi website. A little research on your own will go a long way.

Mabuchi FF-050SB-09250 15x12x28mm might be too long but that is the closest. 5 for 10€ on eBay.

Graupner 180 speed 17x18mm might just drop in. 2.70€ on eBay

Awesome, thanks Owl. Gonna order both now and keep you guys posted just in case anyone else is curious about trying something out like this.

Remember if you don't take pictures, it never happened.

ALL THE STYGMA ROTARY USE THE SAME MOTOR, MAXON 216000, 17 MM DIAMTER

ok, the only replace for this motor is the same model, or FAULHABER , probable same odel as DARGONFLY, DON EXIST ANY OTHER BRAND OF DC MOTORS OF 17 MM DIAMTERS THAT GONNA SURVIVE LONG, IMPOSSIBLE, MABUCHI OR GRAUPNER START BE GOOD AFTER 24 MM DIAMETERS

THE ONE USE SPECIAL TECHNIQUE MUST BE SMALL DIAMETERS, BUT U NEED RUN YOUR MACHINE AT 3 VOLTS, AND IM NOT REALY SURE HOW LONG GONNA SURVIVE THAT MOTORS...
