Trinity Vintage motor slot brushes
This is a Trinity vintage motor using slot brushes. Infact the complete hardware on the endbell is different. From my knowledge this is one of the legendary motors made by Big Jim Greenemeyer when he worked at Trinity.

Robbe Kyosho Le Mans 240S motor
Just got this nice Kyosho Le Mans 240S motor NIB. What makes the motor different is this was sold from German brand Robbe so different packaging also the label says Robbe instead of Kyosho.

Re: The Vintage 1/8 Onroad Thread
This is not my first 1/8 car but the first Delta 1/8 gas car I got, a Delta Red Eagle of around 1982. Motor is a Novarossi Testa Oro, pipe is a McCoy. Pictures are right after unpacking. Body is unknown type, so also the first "What is it?" question. Let me know if you know this body.

Re: The Vintage 1/8 Onroad Thread
1/8 scale servos Futaba FP-S7 and Kraft PS15-II. Both around 1975, never used.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Anyone know the maker of this 1/12 diff? I think it's Leisure Electronics but not sure. There was discussion about this diff before. This diff was designed by Thorp and sold through Thorp, MRP and Leisure. The metal parts were the same for all of these diffs, differences were for plastic parts. MRP...

Re: What year is this Checkpoint motor ?
Not sure if such motor is all Checkpoint made. I know Le Mans endbell could fit Yokomo can. But I don´t think Jim Greenemeyer made such mixes. Also Checkpoint modified engines were known using modular endbell what means slot brushes. It would be interesting to see if there is a Checkpoint armature i...

Re: What year is this Checkpoint motor ?
Yes it seems small brushes have been used at some point. For the armature it could be a Checkpoint. It seems there have been differences between Igarashi based and Yokomo based motors or others. Usually you can see Checkpoint armatures painted in red color but I think this was maybe more for Igarash...

Re: Vintage team checkpoint brushes
I found some at Ebay some years ago and I think that's the only source. But had to wait 'some' time to pop up and not cheap.
Asked slot racers but they used just those without wires.

Re: TAG/SG Coyote
Interesting fact on the Mustang motor. These were available to the Italian TAG team drivers only back in the days, so you got a very rare motor. Triple 16T was a hot wind that time and the prototype Team Losi Revolution motor I received that year was the same wind. Was released as Revolution Brutus ...

Oneway was used for the newer TAG Pro10, not sure for the Coyote but think maybe not.
