Very nice. While I was just now scrolling through, I stopped at the Kyosho motors and happened to notice one of the Kyosho Mega motors missing from the list, the 14x2 Dirt Oval. See specs in the snip below.

I took this snip from an 18 page list which consists of 49 different Kyosho motors (brushed and brushless) that I have saved as a pdf file. The entire list would be nice to post in it's own thread. I might find time to do that later this evening.

Fantastic, thanks! :) Whatever documentation I pulled the Mega Motors information from must not have had that one listed.

It certainly did not. Wonder why the 14x2 was left out of that advertisement.

After posting I went and looked, and that's where I got the information from. :lol: Perhaps Tower didn't stock them at the time of printing the catalog.

Were Checkpoint motors ever made with LeMans motor cans?

I knew about Trinity motors and Kyosho cans, but I'd never seen a Checkpoint with a Kyosho can before.

Would you happen to know anything about this motor? I'm not certain it's actually a Race Prep motor, and it has an unusual endbell. The person with that Checkpoint can had this motor too.
