| Not many people run caps on there motors but some do as it helps stall and it stops motor interference.  |

| I think you will find that the lathe motors generally do not generate enough RPMs to create radio interference. I don't use them on my crawlers and the motors for racing now have internal capacitors. |

| I've never ran caps on mine and never had any problems. The only motor I've ever had that had caps was a POS sivler can motor that came in the TLT I used to have. If you wanted to run caps, its not going to hurt anything, but it also will probably not make a big difference. |

| My truck started glitching a while ago and i put the 3 caps on and it stopped glitching and i also re-wired my truck and move my receiver away from the motor. I was running a Gd600 with a 65t lathe motor Regards james |

| Thanks for all the help guys!! I was just wondering because I come from a stadium truck back ground and some of the modified motor I ran needed compaceters and some had preinstalled internal ones. I have almost got every thing to finish up my crawler. I just got some plexiglass or lexan today for about .50$ a piece to make my chassis. And Im making my links from aluminum rod that I am drilling and tapping. |
