Wheel Motor heights

[cn]

I’m getting to the stage with my Morgan build where I’m thinking about ordering motors.

Which height should I be preferring?

48mm seem to be most available on the e site; 40 and 34 are possible for added cost.

I expect there may be some leeway in the design that could accommodate the 48mm height?

I am using 48mm high motors on mine

Thanks.

Another question: is a 2.4A rated motor going to be a problem at all?

[Quentin Harley]

Will be fine. I run 1.7A without a problem.

You will probably only run the motors at a lower current anyway since the stepper drivers will overheat long before 2.4A
