Hi all,

My cheap and cheerful FW runs NTM motors in argos gearboxes (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...trSearch=28-26). It works surprisingly well apart from the motor shafts just aren't up to the job. I've had one snap so am looking to replace them with something stronger. Whilst I don't know what material the current shafts are made from, I was considering making some out of silver steel and wondered what the more educated engineers on here think?

Cheers

Dan
