300053068 Electric Motor 540 Sport Tuned

Classic motor upgrade for your 1/10 RC car. I used this to replace the stock motor on my vintage Tamiya Frog and it works great. I think they cost less now than when I looked at them in the 80's!! Or maybe I just have more money now and it only seems that way! Either way, it's a great value to get better performance out of your car.

If you are running a brushed setup in your RC, this is a great replacement for stock. More torque and rpm, with still long run times. Obviously not as fast as a brushless system, but if you have a brushed Tamiya or other vintage brushed car, this is a great affordable little motor. I don't water break them in, but use a little motor cleaner and lube at the ends.

I used this motor to replace the stock silver can in my Wild One Buggy. It had a noticable increase in speed and torque. I did a before and after comparison. Running on a 3S lipo it did 28 mph stock and 32 mph with the Sport Tuned. When it has traction it is a wheelie machine. I'm not sure if it is rated to run on 3S, so I don't recommend it, and do so at your own risk. I only ran 3S for testing and will run 2S from now on. Highly recommend the Sport Tuned motor as an inexpensive performance upgrade over the stock silver can that comes with a lot of Tamiya kits.

Made my Grasshopper 2 pretty quick. Pretty good bang for your buck if staying brushed. Typical Tamiya quality!

I ordered two of these (should have ordered one to start) to replace some old brushed motors I didn't feel like maintaining. These have great torque and speed and can be tossed when the (non-user replaceable) brushes wear out, but the output shafts are too short to use with anything other than a Tamiya vehicle. I'm sure the shafts are long enough to fit into the smaller Tamiya gearbox, but I wish I'd noticed beforehand. So if buying for something other than Tamiya, make sure you can use your existing pinion gears with these.

I can't comment on torque but it certainly has more RPM than the stock Tamiya 540 that came with my Hornet EVO. In my testing with a handheld laser tach I was seeing about 2600 max out of the stock motor whereas he 'Sport Tuned' showed about 4100. Both tests were done in sequence with the same 7.2 Nimh battery and 17t pinion.

Very nice

Fast Shipping, good packaging, came as advertised. I would buy again.
