brushes and springs

Post by ntstock93 »

Took my RC10 Graphite out of storage.
Has the old school brushed motor.
Is there still a place that I can buy replacement brushes with terminals and springs?

I would search eBay for a while, to find the best deal.
One example:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hobby-Etc-ETC94189-laydown-serrated-brush-w-eyelet-and-green-springs-/261714177899?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cef616f6b

Of course, you will have to find the right size/configuration
(ie - standard size (vs) P-94, and stand-up (vs) lay-down configuration...),
to fit your particular motor.

I know it's an old post but I can't resist;
On my last trip to the Integy site they were blowing out brushes and springs for dirt cheap. I've never ordered direct from them 'tho.
If that doesn't pan out:

Looks like Integy may still have a few deals. A few years ago, Kyosho was blowing brushes out too. I think I bought a pack of 100 for $10 or less. Could have been $5.

Do you need lay down or stand up brushes? Do you need springs that mirror each other or 2 that are exactly the same?

Bought 3300kv motor. Perfect! Can bash without breaking parts.
Had a 9 Turn 52,000 rpm back in the 90's. Was way too fast. Battery would last 3 minutes!
