RC10 Vintage Motors

We all know about the Silver/Blue stock motors that came with RC10's, but I also have these other two motors and was wondering if anyone knew anything about these?
The Silver/Green one has written on it "Associated Competition Off-Road Stock Motor";
The Silver/Blue one has written on it "Associated Stock Motor";
and the old one with the blue endcap to the left has written on it "Associated 05 Modified".
All of them are Edinger address motors, but I can't remember the timeline for the blue endcap "mabuchi 540" looking motor or the green one. If you might think you know, please post up any information.
I figured this would be good to have a post for, so even if the information is not available now, maybe one-day someone might know some information.

I believe the 05 motors were Igarishi motors, don't know any more than that but I think Geoff (Templeofspeed) is knowledgeable about them and probably others as well.

Also they were used in the 1/12th scale RC12e and 12i cars.

al answered the 05 motor.

the silver/blue labeled motor is the one that came in the rc10 buggy kits. my best guess about the silver/green labeled motor is that it's just an optional motor. if it had the cadillac address on it, i could say it was from the championship edition kits.

That Igarashi modified motor appears to have bushings, probably just a normal 35t motor, just balanced/dipped/bitch-slapped with epoxy/lacquer coated winds. The "real" Reedy Igarashi mods had modified timing, really rewound arms (22 turns or possibly less... :shock: ), with the end bell screwed in place with tape over the can/end bell and the end bell securing tabs removed.

The Edinger Competition stock was just an Associated labeled non-kit Edinger motor, same as the "05" Yokomo "Eight Minute"/ "05" 3502 1/12 motor. Probably intended for a Fox owner wanting some aftermarket power... :wink:

Reviving an old thread here...

I picked up a version of a Team Associated '05' motor with an Edinger sticker that I've never seen before. Doing some research it looks to be an 'Igarashi' version of the standard stock motor but I am just curious where this fits in the timeline of things, if it is early/late, etc. Also all the versions I've seen online seem to have a turquoise/teal end bell versus the black in the example I have.

Anyone have any additional info? If not, I just thought I'd share my find.
