|  Motor protection?
Not sure if this should go here or electronics section: After test running my new(used) berg, I noticed that the motors take a beating on the rocks. What are you guys using/what can I use to protect them, to keep there life span a little longer? Any links or tips would be cool. thanks -RCHuffer |

Bit of plastic bottle and shoe goo or Goop glue. Very effective and well real cheap.   Scratches on the can don't effect the life span of the motor. Well to a point of course... |

I use the top off the small Spray paint cans for bodies.I just cut them and glue them to the can.I let them come out enough to protect the endbell and brushes.
