During the course of my RC10 rebuilds, I pulled this motor from the 'runner' car I traded for. I don't recognize the company / brand but I do see that it is a Yokomo based motor. Can anyone tell me about it? I'd like to see if I can get the specs for it and any interesting history there may be.
I'm not sure of when that particular motor is from, but CAM was around since the late 80s at least. Just from looking, it appears to have bushings, and its a sealed tabbed can, so I'd guess its a stock motor. Unless the last pic of the bottom has a stamp that says otherwise, maybe a number of turns stamped? or some would say ROAR meaning stock class. The pic is pretty blurry, so maybe you can read the bottom and tell us what it says.
So my best guess would be a 27turn single either 24 or 36 degrees of timing. Lol but honestly could be any turn bushing motor, or a race handout motor. Some popular turn bushing fixed cans had 23 and or 19 single winds.
Give us a clear shot of the bottom of the can or a reading of it.
Yeah that means nothing to me. But I do recall seeing SWS or could be SMS too lol I'm sure one of the other guys will chime in and clear the S?S up at the very least.
Anyone help identify my cars? I know they're both YZ-10's of some kind...and that's it. I've read Dual's excellent Yoke guide but still can't work them out. Both cars are in pretty good nick, the first one needs a few bits and pieces to finish it...

Update on the Yoke '94 /'95: Got hold of a NIP moulded wing & T.C.S system. Tried fitting the TCS only to find the front belt was too tight and wouldn't fit. Turned out that the lower mouldings for the front diff had been fitted back to front,...
I picked up a Yokomo to restore, Can someone please help identify what model it is so I can research it. I know it has some aftermarket parts and it came with some NIP original parts so just need to research it.
Any info on this motor? It came in a vintage bolink pan car I bought. I've found this same motor but its red/orange, im not able to find one in silver and black like this.

I don't know about the label. But the endbell and those huge caps are like a Speedworks motor.
I found this at the local hobby store and bought it just because it looked cool. I do not know what it would be used for. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

might be a good fit for a scale project / crawler / monster truck... or just ovrgear it like crazy ;)
As some of you know, I was given a bag full of goodies and I am in the process of rebuilding an RC10 from the bag for my son. Inside the bag there were 8 motors. With the exception of one that was marked green machine 2 , all of the other ones are...

unless it's pristine with the labels intact, they really have no resale value. best used for entertainment.
I'm really interested to know what entertainment can be derived from stock 540-can motors. I have a few of those myself and they're not...

Pretty sure the reedy is modified - stamped MOD on the shaft side on the case - I am thinking a E-S Sport 2 - 20T fixed timing
The Reedy E-S ultimates did have ball bearings and adjustable timing (19T and 15T) but I am pretty sure this one is...

hi.
the blue shocks are RPS.
about the rear aluminum arms.someone told me are make by Hot Trick.
but not 100% sure.
I picked this up the other day simply because I had never seen one before a yokomo twin cam motor was my first ever modified back in the day but it was the normal round shape this is normal in every other way it's just flat and more compact.

I had this one before and a some other in this series. Actually they are lemons.... especially when they were compared with motors in the same era, such as checkpoint, trinity, etc..
However, it is one of the earlier epoxy balance armature. But the...
