There are Peak Performance motors listed in the Guide. https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=18586 Unfortunately the reference guide doesn´t tell the whole story. It is a list with the different types made overall. But the early yellow label motors were just a few of them. The very first motor I...

We know that company very well because my friend lives in the same area. And I think J.... won´t be happy if certain facts would be come to dailight.

Beside magnets it´s also the airgap between the armature and the magnets what affects how easy you can spin by hand. And there are big differences for the airgap. Talking about differences of airgap at motors from the same company at similar time frame. I found at Losi Revolution motors. Jack Johnso...

Well I have so many ESCs so it´s hard to chose what´s my favorite.
One of my all time favorites is the Tekin Mospower Controller, which was Tekin´s first ESC.
For me that´s maybe the most beautiful ESC.

Another favorite ESC is the early Delta Autodrive I ESC which was made by Kevin Orton as well.

The strange thing is I collect alot of things now which I didn´t like in the past. Not related to ESC only. But they are a part of the history.. But they have to have a reason to collect them. For sure there are items also which I had in the past and don´t want to have again ... for a reason. :D Reg...

I have had both, old cells leak and not leak. As the leaked stuff could be dangerous to health I binned most of those cells. What I found is Cells which have been pushed or treated in some way to lower IR and making more power will leak at some point. Cells which have been not pushed might leak not ...

Formula 1 R/C cars 1/10 scale - any manufacturers I did a search on Formula 1 R/C cars at the forum, but found nothing beside Tamiya and Kyosho. So not disturbing these with offtopic postings, I thought it might be a good idea to start a new thread. Let´s talk about your cars and share your experien...

I´m not sure if it makes a difference, if the cells hold a small charge or are compleley dead voltage. It will make a difference if you want to run them but maybe not for colllection purpose only. Quite all of the cells I had which were pushed, VISed or in any way treated leaked. Most of them badly....

Congrats, this is definitely a nice display.

Are the motor stands homemade or available somewhere?
I like the angled presentation more but have not found something so far for this task.

I have a couple of Reedy Modified motors myself. And can´t really tell which one would be my favorite. At my collection there are the early Igarashi based ones but also something as Ultra or Mr. series. Also sometimes some other Reedy comes up. But it´s difficult to choose which one to go. So which ...

Some Reedy´s. Some other are mounted to my cars.

I know this is a motor display thread, but is there a build thread on that Schumacher? :D Unfortunately not although I did enter it in the Build of the Month a while back. Here it is under the body. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50324343286_647fdc0dae_k.jpg Great build. Where did you find tha...

Congrats, this is definitely a nice display. Are the motor stands homemade or available somewhere? I like the angled presentation more but have not found something so far for this task. Thanks, yes they can be found on ebay, usually from China & prices vary. Here's an example. https://www.ebay....

So the Tekin M Star Gold is a special version made for Yokomo. But basically it is a G12?
Of course it looks special and nice.
