We have the next TCS race at my local track. I have a MO2 that I am going to run. What motor can I use? Does it have to be the silver can or can I go with a sport tuned motor?

That appears to be the Eagle set. You can also get it from Integy direct, or through one of there resellers, although they might have to order it for you.

How do you guys break in these stock motors that are running so quick! They seem like they have power on demand instantly. What is the technique? Water dipping I heard, but I haven't got a clue on how to do that.

Help please!

I have recently acquired a Fantom Dyno, and have been conducting some tests. So far my water dipped motors have shown negative results vs a new out of the box motor I have purchased. I would run up a new dry motor to 7.2V, and slowly drop it down to loosen the bushings, and just keep the comm clean, and the bushings oiled. So far it seems to work the best?

you can convert the M-03L to a M-03 by taking out that middle section.
