R-Spec Motor

Just an FYI....
I recently received an R-Spec Motor from Tiny.
The torque is good. Enough to hop my bit on to the carpet and ride.
The speed is great. flips the bus though.
The diameter of the motor seems a little larger than the standard bit motor.

the diameter difference isn't causing any ill fitting problems is it?

Yup, the R-Spec has a slightly larger diameter...At the endbell itself (not the motor though).
Pretty small difference
- Tomy Motor Endbell: 6.1mm
- R-Spec Endbell: 6.4mm
But I guess it's enough that Nox noticed.

anyone else notice...
it seems when I hit a wall with my bit and it has an R-spec motor in it..
after hitting the wall (or something solid) it kinda stunds the motor...
it slowly crawls after the hit....and then after a sec...it builds it's power/speed back up. (like it's human).

Well I've had 2 r-specs and both exhibited the same quirks;
Running a single 150mah 1.2v bat and 9.86:1 gearing, I had to give it a nudge to get going (oh yeah always double charged too)
To compinsate for this little problem I would always run a 12:1 gear ratio
It's a power hog no doubt, I found , just before it's untimely demise, that the R-spec rocked in the Wild char-g. For more of an explanation see
HERE (scroll up a little)

i wonder if this is the motor that could step up to my infamous "pink clone motor"
the characteristics you describe sound a lot like it.

I've smoked up all my R-spec motors... I had a burnt one, and decided to put a drop of oil on it, and it ran like hell for a day or two.. Then it just died again.. Crap.
I hear good things about the F-34s though..

ya he sent me a free one and it was dudded from the beginning. when it would run right is screamed like nothing else but that was for a few seconds and then it would die again. the perfection motors kick ass tho.

well the 3.8 is real solid and it screams. the 4.2 elvis is the same but it screams even harder.
