Jspeed 1 Posted April 30, 2020 Want to replace the silver can n my sons mad fighter. What is a reasonable motor upgrade ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Hollywood 160 Posted April 30, 2020 There is the Tamiya sport tuned motor I have not used one yet but they are faster than the normal 540 motor they range from £20-£30 there are also other Tamiya tuned motors available just a thought . Also the higher the turn the faster it will go so 23T is slower than a 28T. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superluminal 3750 Posted April 30, 2020 Its the other way round But a sport tuned would be a good starting point if keeping the stock esc and battery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jspeed 1 Posted April 30, 2020 Saw on you tube some one using a absima thrust eco 21 . Would that be any good. Cheap as chips at £8.50 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superluminal 3750 Posted April 30, 2020 Depends on what your speed controller is rated at. 21 turns brushed motor would be too low to run on the standard Tamiya Tble02s. Do you know what you have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicadraus 6201 Posted April 30, 2020 GoolRC motors. Tried, tested and they are good. From 80t down to 10t. Price is ranging from $10 - 15. Really cheap and reliable. They are also equipped with bearings at each end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superluminal 3750 Posted April 30, 2020 If you go with the 1060 then you should be golden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A-Baum 352 Posted April 30, 2020 Do you have to provide your own wiring for the goolrc motor? Looks like you have to provide and do your own soldering? If so, where can you source the wires? Don't really want to unsolder a silver can. Also, man how are they selling this motor for $11 USD and shipping it for free from China to US? What does this thing cost less than $1 to make?
