Does anybody know if there are any resistors I must use on these motors if any?

If you use vintage radio gear then it was often a good idea to use a capacitor to reduce RF interference from the motor but not so necessary with modern radios on 2.4gig radios .

I am using vintage radio gear so if I put any old capacitor on there it will be fine? I have some but I just didn’t know if there was a certain one I needed to put on it. Thanks for the response. I e been trying to figure that out for a while now.

brushed motors should as a general rule, use three 0.1uF-0.47uf caps, one from each brush to the can (or screw tab) and then one across the brushes. the value isn't super critical, whatever you can find that falls in that range.
Some forward only ESC's recommend a schottky diode as well, it's up to your discretion. you have to be mindful of polarity.

Will either of these work?

Yup either set of caps will be fine. The greens ones are a little light in value (102) is only 1000picofarads. Not sure about the others the values aren't present but judging by size they are within the right range.

Thank you so much. I’ve been wanting to use that motor ever since I got it but I didn’t know about capacitors. Huge help.
