Default Turnigy Motor Bearings

Guys, I hope this is in the right forum. If not ,please advise Me. Thanks.
Where can I purchase motor bearings for Turnigy motors? I have an SK 3542-1250 that when revved up makes a choppy/squealing noise. And since I do have a tendency to push My equipment a bit, it would be nice to have bearings on hand. In case it is important, the motor bearings I am interested in are for Turnigy motors, SK 3542-1250, SK 3542-1000, SK3548-1100. Thanks, TJ

It may not be a bearing issue. If your ESC loses synchronization with the motor, especially when you're pushing it, it can make an awful squealing sound. If there is no physical vibration (from rough bearings), try changing the motor timing to eliminate the sound.

Yeah it sounds more like a timing issue difference between the ESC and the motor.
You might try changing the ESC timing mode and see what happens.

Thanks Guys, I will try the timing. I have it set for low timing as I don't have a lot of cooling and was worried about heat.. Thanks again.
Best Regards, TJ
