They have TONS of stuff for dirt cheap. I'm definetely going to spend the next few hours looking around here :lol:

I'm tempted to get a 12V 7.5AH lead-acid battery. Who cares about weight?! With lathe motors I'll have 4 hours of run time 8O

cool, site just wasted an hour poking around there :D

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

I'd heard about some Johnson motors listed there awhile ago and just got a few pair recently. Now I can't find the threads about them from so long ago, so I dunno if they're any good for crawling. Anybody have some experience with them?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

That looks a LOT like a 550 can Titan Motor, including the fan.

I bet Titans take a core like that and re-wrap them with larger gauge wire to make their 14.4V beasts.

When I hear Johnson motors, I think Johnson/Mabuchi, aka stock clod motors?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Thats WAY similar to a Titan motor

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

If they're basicaly Titan's, at 7.2v would they be better than stock TXT motors?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Probably. They'll be mid-low RPM torquers. Depends on your setup, if you have lots of gearing you'd be better suited to a higher RPM motor.

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

ATM I've got stock gearing in the TXT aside from 12T pinions. When I put new motors in I may go with 9T. I was thinking of using either those Johnson motors or a couple of MM's; possibly Lathe motors.

I'm looking for lots of torque of course but still some wheel speed; a top-end of ~5mph would be good. Which combo from the list above do you think would be best for that?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Lathe motors will make you super silly slow with tons of torque, maybe some wheelspeed. I get some wheelspeed with my clod at 50:1 and running the lathe motors on 14.4V.

Mag Mayhems would be great, but maybe try those Johnson units and dare to be different ;)

ferkin der. That was me above :oops: First time for everything..

NEWB! Did you forget to make your medicine? :flipoff:

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Hey youngin, I've been here longer than you have :flipoff: :lol:

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

I know! That just makes it worse! :lol:

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

I blame outlook, it opened the thread in IE cause I was FTPing with it, and I just followed through without looking to see it wasn't firefox. It wasn't until my FTP window was gone and I was really confused did I realize I was in IE land :lol:

Damn microsoft! :lol:

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

I was talking to an old racer and he was telling me that those sleeves on those cans are "torque sleeves" which my last E-Maxx didn't have. I am not sure if they are, but I will tell you this, when I bought some of these motors from the local surplus shop, it sure did put my Maxx back to life.

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

hey do they have lathe motors there?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Are you sure yours didn't have the sleeve? With mine, the Titan name/sticker deal was on it. Then again, we could be talking about something different?

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

No, Jam1sstang on here or integy.com

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

If those sleeves make that much difference maybe I should put them back on my 750's......

Re: Great Electronic Parts Resource!!
 

Yes, I am sure I didn't have the sleeve, I don't have the names on the cans either. I was told by the guy I got my Maxx from that the guy he got it from took the stickers off, and when I got it, he had taken the sleeves off, which took the stickers off.
