The servo saver is for the Novak NES1A. 
Who was looking for this motor? Might be sweet in an RPS SE... 
Hi Temple, what do you mean about the motor being popped and timed brushes? Sorry I am a tuning noob!templeofspeed wrote:The motor is a Yokomo based Team Losi Performance Revolution that's had the endbell popped and bearings installed along with timed brushes. Someone was a cheater-face...
Sorry, too hard to find. I've seen that seller offer that servo in the past with a $50 bin... Don't be surprised if it's no good...mikedealer wrote:wanna sell that servo saver lol, just won a servo on ebay and guess i could use it

Stock motors (before the days of rebuildable stocks) had their endbell/brusholder/plastic-bit-where-the-wires-go crimped in place to prevent tampering with timing, armature spec, etc. "Popping" the endbell simply means the crimps were bent back so the endbell could be removed to get on with some tampering...like adding ball bearings, rewound armature, magic voodoo, and so forth. Timed brushes have a bit of material removed from the end that touches commutator in such a way that the motor's commutator timing is altered.Dr. Robotnik wrote:Hi Temple, what do you mean about the motor being popped and timed brushes?

Maybe if Darryn would pop in with his bag of magic AYK parts... 
It is nice, but it seems kind of "toyish". The "alloy" rear pod and front brace are actually silver plastic... I'm also not 100% convinced about the green top deck and battery straps being original or correct.Asso_man! wrote:Why don't you love it? It's very nice IMO, even though I'm a real noob about those 1/12th scale cars
1/12th scale on-road was the pioneer in electric rc car racing, just before everyone started racing tamiya srb buggiesRC Chick wrote:What was the purpose of the 12th scale cars?
1/8th gas had been around since the early 1970's, but 1/12th electric didn't really get going until 1976-1977, even though there were 1/12th gas and electric cars before that (the Jerobee Commando, basically). One of the first real electric 1/12th electric racing cars was the Bolink Electric Car, followed by the RC12e, Leisure 100, Jomac Lightning...plus the Japanese had jumped in (Tamiya, Kyosho, AYK, etc.). I'm sure terry.sc and others could provide more detail on things like the Schumacher cars, etc. You need to be a member in order to post a reply
