• Finally check all the connections before using the motor.
Hall-Sensor wire
Due to the maintenance free design of the
Vector8
, it is not necessary to open the motor frequently under normal conditions.
It is just recommended to check that all screws are still securely fastened.
Nevertheless it is recommended that you frequently maintain (clean, check, oil, replace if needed!) the ball bearings in order
to achieve best performance. Of course you can also disassemble the motor entirely if you wish to do so.
Disassemble the motor:
1. Loosen the center endcover screw and remove screw, plastic endcover and timing insert.
2. Remove PreciSensor™ Assembly by pulling gently at sensor connector.
3. Loosen and remove the long/outer 3 screws and gently slide off the front aluminium housing.
4. Remove the o-ring and shim from the shaft.
5. Carefully pull the rotor out of the housing and place it in clean towel or designated rotor container.
5. You have now access to both ball bearings for cleaning, maintenance and replacement. You may also use compressed air
to clean the inside of the motor after you have removed the bearings.
Be careful with correct shim/o-ring position during re-assembly and avoid overtightening the screws!
Dear Customer,
thank you for your trust in this LRP product. By purchasing a
LRP Vector8
Brushless Modified motor, you have chosen the
highest developed competition brushless motor. LRPs R&D team took all the experience and testing results from the last 4
years of practical tests and racinig with the LRP brushless motors on the highest levels of competition and started with a
clean sheet of paper for the all new
Vector8
motors. IFMAR World Champion Technology!
HALL-SENSOR WIRE:
This bi-directional multipole wire, which is supplied with all LRP Sensored speed-controls, connects
the speedo and the motor. Do not alter or modify this cable! Make sure, that the plugs have a proper and tight fit and are
always clean.
POWER WIRES:
The unique splitted solder-tabs allow easy and convenient replacement of the power wires. Nevertheless
some soldering skills are required. Talk to your local hobbyshop if you are concerned about soldering the wires yourself.
Caution:
Avoid soldering longer then 5sec per soldering joint to prevent possible damage to the motor due to overheating of
the inner components!
Please pay special attention to our gear ratio recommendations!
A wrong gear-ratio causes excessive heating and may
result in motor damage or thermal shutdown of your speed-control. Take your kits manual to find the correct pinion. Motor
temperatures should be monitored, they should never exceed 100°C (= 210°F).
The following gear ratios are only a recommendation and a good starting point. The actual gearing may vary due to different
speed-controls, speedo profiles, motor timings, tracks, track conditions and/or batteries:
• Install the motor in the model.
Caution:
The maximum length of the motor
screws shall not exceed
8mm
.
• Connect the power wires of the speed-control
to the motor.
Make sure, that the sequence is correct by
checking the color code and the letters:
- MOT.A = blue wire
- MOT.B = yellow wire
- MOT.C = orange wire
• If you‘re using a sensored speed-control: at-
tach the hall-sensor wire to motor and speedo
now.

USER GUIDE
LRP‘s world exclusive PreciSensor™ System allows precise control for best and most efficient performace. Fast, simple and
super-accurate timing adjustment using the supplied timing inserts. By altering the timing, you move the powerband and
alter the characteristics of the motor.
Three important things to remember about timing adjustments:
1. Higher timing results in higher rpm but worse efficency/torque and vice versa.
2. Higher timing requires shorter gearing!
3. Timing adjustments should be done by experienced racers only, others please leave timing on standard setting!
No toy. Not suitable for children under 14 years.
Keep the product out of the reach of children.
Pay close attention to the following points, as they can destroy the product and void your warranty. Non-observance
of these points can lead to property damage, personal and severe injuries!
• Never leave the product unsupervised while it is switched on, in use or connected with a power source. If a defect occurs,
it could set fire to the product or the surroundings.
• Avoid incorrect connections or connections with reversed polarity of the product.
• All wires and connections have to be well insulated. Short-circuits can possibly destroy the product.
• Never allow this product or other electronic components to come in contact with water, oil or fuels or other electrocon-
ductive liquids, as these could contain minerals, which are harmful for electronic circuits. If this happens, stop the use of
your product immediately and let it dry carefully.
• Avoid overtightening the motor screws. Damaged threads are not covered under warranty!
• Avoid overloading the motor due to wrong or too long gear ratios.
• Never apply full throttle if the motor is not installed. Due to the extremely high RPMs without load, the motor can
get damaged.
• Always wire up all the parts of the equipment carefully. If any of the connections come loose as a result of vibration, you
could loose control over your model.
• Avoid soldering longer then 5 seconds per soldering joint when replacing the power wires to prevent possible damage to the
product due to overheating of the components. Use a high power soldering station with at least 60W for soldering.
The manufacturer can not be held responsible for damages, which are a result of non-observance of the warning notes
and security advices.
All products from LRP electronic GmbH (hereinafter called “LRP”) are manufactured according to the highest quality standards. LRP

• Overload (for example: unsoldered Star-ring)
• Excessive amounts of dirt inside the motor
• Rotor damage due to debris inside motor
• Mechanical damage due to external causes
• Rust“
To eliminate all other possibilities or improper handling, first check all other components in your model and the trouble shooting
guide, if available, before you send in this product for repair. If products are sent in for repair, which do operate perfectly, we have

The Vector8‘s design aim was highest power at acceptable running temperatures, therefore the housing is done in a unique
way containing maximum number of cooling fans, an additional state-of-the-art clamp system (incl high power cooling fan
and screws) is also included.
This fan must be used at all times!
Connect the fan‘s Multicon connector to a free slot of your receiver (the fan is rated for 5-6.5V input).
The unique clamp system allows installation of the fan in different angles and positions for best installation and convienence
in all cars.
