I have that one in the picture. It's a very useful tool. I've been using it to learn what works with the different motor's.

The next best would be something that gave you torque. It's all RPM and amps.

very good break-in feature. Adjustable volts and time. Also saves data.

Mine says it's a Motor Performance Monitor. From Orion. Fasttrack Hobbies had one by chance.

Default Orion Motor Checker

The instructions for their motor checker is on the Orion website.

They are fairly clear. Good luck.

Would like to hear your input after playing with it awhile.

Thanks.

All so played with some difffrent spring and brush combos you sure can see the changes good and bad.Cant wait to play with this so more next week at the track.Ed
