Default New Tank Motors - Open Endbell Faster than the Reds

So I've run stock, the blues that come with the ultimate gear boxes, the Reds and I just picked up 4 of these babies for $24 shipped.



The blues if anyone is wondering are one step up from stock in a 380 size.



the Reds are 390s and these new 390s are supposed to be faster yet.

the black one in the above pic is a regular 540 open Endbell for size comparison.

when I get the new 390 open endbells I'll take a size pic

the Abrams is a modern high speed MBT and I'm building mine as such.

I've readed somewhere that when you gain speed you lose torque/traction... So please keep us updated because Im planning to buy new motors this month and I cant decide what to do... The Reds, the graupner S400...

Do you think I can fit the red ones in a Panzer III or are they too big?

The crazy part is that they're only $5.00 each!!!



There is also a red car racing 390 but I'm not familiar with it and now a black motor too



But i I have not used the redcat or this black one, just the stock, red and blue. Soon I'll have experience with the new open Endbell 390. I mean for $5.00 whatever...it was worth the shot

A lot of people will be interested in what you find out. What gears are you attaching them to?
