I beleieve so but dont quote me.
I just come up with outrageously retarted ideas because I know nothing of r/c's and my friend figures out a way to make it work. This is a pic of my friends supra. my xmod is just a rewound stage2 at 30turns with 6cell modThe 180 out of a tamtech completely smokes mine. He has also put a small sheet of aluminum to keep down flew and it still made the AWD slip up front. So ATM this car is only RWD. We have yet to find a set of tires hook up enough to drive it well. The foams slipped horribly and so do the stock slicks. Next mod is a model body and treaded tires. NOTE* this 180 only runs on 4 duracell AAA NiMH batts!!

Tamtech, huh? Interesting...

Funny you should mention that, as I spent most of last night researching alternate motor sizes. A FC-260 can would just barely fit with custom motor mounts, but has about 4x the torque of the 130 motor...

180 motor is a pretty easy fit, however. Exactly the same dimensions except the length, whuch is no problem if you are running one of the long wheelbase cars. It probably wouldn't fit in an RSX.

Hmmmm....

Yes. But the more hardcore Micro RS4 motors go to a larger (round) type. I'm going to try one of the high speed modified 180 motors in my car and see how it works.

Well, I popped in the Team Orion stock motor from the Micro RS4 in mine, but of course, I couldn't leave well enough alone. I removed 10 turns per pole on it. I used the 11 tooth pinion and blue gear, set it down, and the car accelerated like a rocket.

Backwards.

Anyway, Seeing how this car moves, I am convinced that the 130 motor is lame, and will not be devoting any more time to it. On to bigger and better things. Even with the tallest gearing (and I have taller gears on order, hope they work) the car still accelerates like my tweaked stage 2 drag motor, which left a few jaws open at the track when I ran it, and even better than my hottest 130 mod motor to date (stage 2 reduced to 44 turns, Neo magnets, timing advance, BB can)

OK Draconious, we need Neos for 180 cans now...



*EDIT*

Got this thing hooked up correctly this time, and took it for a spin around my living room and kitchen. This is crazy. It far surpasses anything else I've tried in an XMod. I was doing AWD axis spins out in the kitchen, and in the living room, the cat is having a much harder time jumping out of the way. :lol:

I've got a GPM high speed modified on order, along with a couple of larger pinions.
