Mounting Kraken X60

PreviousHow To ArticlesNextInstalling Items on SplineXS

Last updated 10 months ago

The Kraken X60 has eleven #10-32 mounting holes on a 2" bolt circle, spaced 30 degrees apart. Allowing the Kraken to mount on the traditional 2-hole CIM mounting pattern, as well as applications that use the 6 and 8 hole patterns of the Falcon and NEO.

Mounting Holes

The blind mounting holes are 0.250" deep, meaning they don't go through the mounting plate. By using blind mounting holes, teams cannot lock the motor's internal rotor by using too long of a screw.

The additional mounting holes give teams the ability to change the direction of the wires.
