Post by MaxximumRC »

i got one bout 3 weeks ago and it has a pink motor w/ green gears. i raped it for parts. it has a pretty torquey motor so i popped it in another pretty good clone i had. i would prolly not buy another one for 10 bucks i would just go to biglots and get 2 more thunderchargers :lol:

I picked up a Walgreens clone today for $9.99. Right out of the box, it didn't work. It would go foward and reverse......not fast at all, but it wouldn't turn. I pulled it apart and noticed that instead of having the magnets in the middle and the coils on the outside, it was reverse....magnets on outside and coils in center. I couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I am gonna swap it out tomorrow or just get my money back. If I keep it, it will only be for some decent white wheels it comes with. BTW, Mine came with a green motor, maybe thats why it was sloooowwww.
