I’ve been following this forum for a couple of years and learning every day from everything you write.
My name is Gonzalo and I live in southern Spain. I’m currently very happy with my home assist.
-6384 motor
-SEqure 12200 ESC

I’m here to summarize my latest potting, as the previous two didn’t work well.
-First 6384 motor with generic epoxy potting, which was a mistake as it does not dissipate heat well and burned out after 8 sessions.
-Second 6384 motor with Electrolube thermal epoxy potting, which worked very well. However, I made a mistake when sealing the cables about 20 cm from the motor. I didn’t seal the heat shrink tubing properly and water ended up getting into the cable, causing one of the motor phases to fail after 4 months.
-Third motor (photos attached) 6384 Electrolube thermal epoxy potting. This time, I made sure that the cables were embedded inside the motor and at the other end in a Teflon machined connector.
I don’t have a 3D printer, so I machine my molds on a CNC machine, which is a good machine.
I hope you like the process.
