SS SYSTEMS TURN PRO
PRO-SERIES BRUSHLESS SYSTEMS
The SS Pro Series is based on Novak's
premier Velociti-Series Racing brushless motors. The SS Pro-Series
is available in three motor winds:
- SS8.5 Pro Brushless Motor is
8.5 turns and similar to a 15-17-turn mild-modified brush motor (#3408)
- SS10.5 Pro Brushless Motor is
10.5 turns, which is similar to a 19-turn brush motor, and has
been approved for the ROAR
Super Stock Class (#3410)
-
SS13.5
Pro Stock Brushless Motor is
13.5 turns, which is similar to a 27-turn racing stock brush
motor, and has also been approved for the ROAR
Super Stock Class (#3413)
-
SS17.5 Pro Brushless Motor is
17.5 turns and is ideal for use in the 17.5-turn brushless class
that organizations such as Brushless
Racing League* and Southwest
Tour* have
instituted. Approved
for ROAR Stock Class (#3417)
Each SS Pro Series motor is available in a combo
system factory-wired with a GTB
Programmable Racing Brushless/Brush ESC (#1710). Novak
brushless systems include everything to be race-ready,
out of the box, so there is nothing extra to buy or install. The
entire system is factory-tested, so racers can be assured that the
SS Pro Brushless Systems will provide optimum performance.
To address the popular 4-cell brushless racing
classes, the ROAR-approved SS10.5
Pro and the SS13.5 Pro Super Stock Brushless Motors will also be
offered in a combo system factory-wired with a GTB
4-Cell Programmable Racing Brushless/Brush ESC (#1714):
- GTB 4-Cell/SS10.5 Pro
Brushless System (#3040)
- GTB 4-Cell/SS13.5 Pro
Stock Brushless System (#3043)
- GTB 4-Cell/SS17.5 Pro
Brushless System (#3047)
NOVAK'S GTB RACING ESC
The SS Pro brushless systems are available
with the GTB
Programmable Racing Brushless/Brush ESC (#1710) or GTB
4-Cell Programmable Racing Brushless/Brush ESC(#1714).
Both model ESCs are packed full of features. The versatile ESCs can
be used with either brushless or brushed motors and
have no brushed motor
limit. The #1710 GTB ESC is compatible with all Novak 540-size
sensored brushless motors, while the #1714 GTB 4-Cell ESC is
specifically designed for 4-cell applications such as 1/12-scale
on-road, and 1/12 or 1/10-scale pan car oval.
The GTB ESCs are also programmable with a
user-friendly interface, including 4 different color status LEDs
that make programming extremely easy. The
brushless mode has 4 adjustable parameters, including Minimum
Brake, Drag Brake, Deadband, and Minimum
Drive. The brushed
mode is fully programmable with
all of the adjustments of the brushless mode, plusadjustable
Drive Frequency.
SS PRO MOTOR FEATURES
The SS Pro brushless motors are equipped with outstanding features
such as the Novak
ROAR-approved, Nickel-plated Sintered Neodymium rotor. The rotor
is the same high-performance rotor that the Velociti 3.5R motor
currently features (and which all Velociti motors now have). The
rotor is ideal for use with any and all applications and provides
many benefits, including:
- Significantly increased
magnetic strength for improved throttle feel
- Improved, stronger
motor braking power
- Improved performance in
higher temperature conditions
- Improved motor
acceleration and power
- Higher efficiency
- Lower current draw
- Nickel-plated rotor for
a long lasting, smooth, clean finish
- ROAR approved
Another standard feature is a set of ribbed
aluminum end bells. The lightweight aluminum end bells not only reduces
the overall weight of
the motor, but the ribbed design also acts as a heat sink by efficiently
removing excessive heat from the motor.
Other great standard features found on all Novak
motors, including: a convenient
Solder Tab System for
easy wire replacement; Sensor-Based
Technology for
excellent starting torque, low-speed
drivability, and smooth acceleration; the same Oversized
Front Bearing used in
Novak's Velociti-series motors that is more rugged, extra durable,
and helps extend motor life; and Thermal
Overload Protection (when
used with a Novak brushless ESC) that allows pack after pack to be
run without fear of damaging the motor, battery, or speed control.
The Pro motors will also be outfitted with a color-coded,
non-removable, non-replaceable timing ring located
on the rear end bell. The timing rings will be of great assistance
to race directors and officials in ensuring the correct motor is
used during racing. The timing rings are a visibly easy way to check
that racers' are compliant with race rules. The SS10.5 Pro features
a blue timing ring,
the SS13.5 features an orange
timing ring, and the SS8.5 features a black
timing ring.
Each motor is factory hand-wound and
is put through rigorous testing, including a final dyno test to
ensure that each motor meets Novak's rigid specifications.
