XMOD Motor Gallery 1

Tamiya Torque-Tuned

Sorry for the awful Pic! I just won 10 of these on eBay for $4.00. Got to  love eBay.  At  14.26 mph on 4 cells I have to say  these are a decent motor. That is with a 11t blue gear. I tweaked the motor a bit (changed the weak stock brushes and used the brushes from one of my stage 1 motors)…. 17.36 mph with a 10 tooth and 21.7 mph with 5 cells. Not to mention that it takes off like a jet plane.

UPDATE: Added Carbon Brushes and the result was 19 mph at 4 cells with 11 tooth blue gear and 25 mph in my 5 cell 350z. As far as basement track racing this tweaked motor is the way to go!

Update #2 I put this in my 4wd Skyline at 6 cells and it hit 27 mph (with carbon brushes). Still no fet upgrade needed. *3/28/05* I tested this with lithium batteries and in hit 32 mph.
