Re: Sunday Races……..Sydney GTG!!!!

dgs, do plasma dash armatures have easily charred comms? Or do they wear thru brushes more easily? My motor states that it must only be used in 10 minute races (max) with an aftermath cooldown period of 15mins! Dunno about the plasma, but i remember they can all get quite hot…..

When I race with HO scale slotcars (Aurora AFX, Tyco, Lifelike, Marchon track), the tiny armatures in those cars needed a cooldown period of 10 mins between continuous 15 min intervals….so maybe a little cooldown could help in prolonging the life of electric motors?

From what i’ve seen, dgs’s rebuilt plasma was quite fast, with top end speed being even faster than my atomic/PN mod motors. Dunno about kevsta’s one tho 😉
