Wow, 45 laps after 3 hours is a huge lead, congratulations. I'm pretty sure you did most of the work driving the car but I'm happy you believe the videos helped - that was the idea; thanks for the words of encouragement.

I’m 6months behind u lol we learning tho hanks to guys like him and RU-vid

On those types of power supply, when you want to regulate voltage, the amperage is set to max. The load will only draw the necessary amperage, about 200mA at 4 volts in the example; 400 mA when submerged.

It is about 1.5 inches in diameter, the center hole is 2mm. That wheel is an RC helicopter flywheel that I covered with a thin plastic sheet and painted black - maybe you can find something similar in your local hobby shop.

@AustinSlotCarClub 11 лет назад

The Power Supply brand is Leader, the model is 718-20D, I would recommend it to anyone but it has been discontinued. It has adjustable amperage from 0-20 & voltage from 0-18.

@AustinSlotCarClub 11 лет назад

Same as shown in the video: 45 min to 1 hour @ 4 volts; 3 minutes in the water/alcohol mixture after.

@southjerseysound7340 8 лет назад

There are some good tips here but you should oil the endbell end just do so lightly.Also you are right about there be many ways I wanted to mention that not only does the water carry the material away it works as a abrasive to help bed the brushes in and seat them on the com..I do a similar method but you need to realize that the water works as a abrasive.

Super instruction, thanks!

@RobertoLane 10 лет назад

I run my motors in using the motor pod and back axle assembly. This helps polish the axle in the bearings, and also runs in the gears too. I dab a tiny bit of toothpaste on my gears for this which helps to bed them in. Once done and cleaned I use teflon-impregnated lubricant for mountain bike chains. It dries on the gears and they run almost silently.

@AustinSlotCarClub 11 лет назад

Hi, the procedure would be the same. If you have a closed can motor with covered vents, you could cut a small slit to allow the fluid and brush shavings to fall through.

@RobertoLane 10 лет назад

In Italy we're not allowed to open the motor, so no changing the brushes or cleaning the commutator. Most of the guys at my club tape over the can holes to stop rubber dust getting in. However, this also keeps any brush dust IN the motor. I guess finer dust better than chunks of rubber. An occasional clean in water seems to be answer. Using alcohol mixed with water is something new to me. I've also ordered one of those tachometers. Great value. Thanks.

@snurfen 10 лет назад

I've also got one of those tachometers. I use the reflective tape on he wheel to get the rpm - obviously need to multiply up by the gearing ratio to get an exact reading, but also useful in comparative tests.

Pull the arm . Polish the commutator ! With red jewelers rouge. Easy put arm in a drill spinning one way ,then with a dremel with buffing wheel spinning opposite direction . in about 3 to 5 seconds you can see the results . The commutator is done.Awesome results wipe clean and new brushes ! Put it Back in the car no break in needed ! Be careful not to hit the wire connections. Secret from a old timer . Break records !

Thanks for the 411... No wonder some many Pros's get the Head's Up on the Bunch of us in the Bunch... :-)

How do I break in a closed can motor? (Fly 18K motor) Great Video by the way... Thank you!

@lucarampo1072 2 года назад

Buongiorno, aumentano i giri,ma poi ha ancora il rendimento di Prima? grazie

@lucarampo1072 Год назад

Buongiorno, è vero che fare il lavaggio del motore perde la coppia? perché molte persone dicono che perde la coppia.grazie

@dlbii1970 11 лет назад

Hello what kind of power supply do you use? Does it have variable amps to? I enjoyed watching your video's keep them coming.

@bobbymalta73 11 лет назад

Ok thks for your reply,keep it up!

@bobbymalta73 12 лет назад

Thanks for sharing!

@TheShownv 12 лет назад

do you have all the information on your videos in written format? as this would be most useful

@bobbymalta73 11 лет назад

Hello i have to break in my scalextric 18k motor,how many time i must leave running the motor?..Cheers keep it up!

@dlbii1970 11 лет назад

Thanks for the help when you are breaking in a motor at 4 volts how many amps do you have it set at and thanks for the info.

@stefanobism 6 лет назад

What kind of alcohol should it be? Is 90% denatured ethyl alcohol (color pink) okay to do this wash? Thank you

@bobbymalta73 5 лет назад

The Alcohol you used is for Scalextric use? Thks!

@27jabberwocky12 8 лет назад

Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing.

@courtneyhowe7793 7 лет назад

OMG. that's super freaking cool!

@Oli_von_BRTechnik 9 лет назад

Is it helpfull to wash the motor if it's a old and used one

@pockit57d.a.d.68 6 лет назад

Marvel Mistory oil on end bell as a com drop to oil thrust washers first polish the com with red rough then drive it like you stole it.

@courtneyhowe7793 7 лет назад

What did you use as your power supply?

@bobbymalta73 12 лет назад

Hello,what`s the size of that wheel?

@SteveMagr Год назад

4:07 = 12 volts begin

@coralsheep918 6 лет назад

Thanks for listing the part number Blade EFLH1243

@AustinSlotCarClub 11 лет назад

Hi, not the same car or instructions but very similar: austinslotcarclub(DOT)com/?q=node/209

@danielhutchinson7115 Год назад

Yes and it's the wrong kind to drink , but people do from time to time.....

@danielhutchinson7115 Год назад

I can hear the motor throwing fast slow fast slow so it's not consistent...

@danielhutchinson7115 Год назад

Hey you should see if you can get a smaller motor to use cause seeing is way overated.
