The motor has to be different. Hyperspace goes with thicker platter and the moment of inertia is different and you have to have a larger torque to maintain the same speed. Also the platter is so much thicker than that of Spacedeck, the holder of the moter has to be bigger and higher as compare to the one for Spacedeck.
Question for nottingham hyperspace owners
I found a used hyperspace for sale but I'm questioning a few things. The tag on the bottom of the motor shows serial number of aprox 050xxxx and model name says spacedeck. From looking at pictures of all models the motor looks exactly like a hyperspace motor but wondering if the fact that it says spacedeck means anything. Also can anyone tell me if newly built hyperspace is different from earlier units.. thanks..
