Yes, I know this motor, good solid motor. With proper maintenance they should last around 10,000 hours.
It is electronically controled and can be difficult to troubleshoot without the proper electronic scanning equipment.
The drives were used for years, and stand up well. Still needs the maintenance though.

PS, Welcome to iboats, a single post in the proper forum is all you need. I deleted the other 2 with the same questions.
