I gave a Peak racing 19x2 raven sv2 brushed motor and it stopped working, but I'll just bet it needs brushes, but how do I check if the brushes are good and if they arent good, how do I replace them.

im pretty sure the sv2 is the angled brushes its getting kinda hard to find brushes for any type brushed motor but i think this is what you need http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...rodID=ORI41130 you can get them alittle cheaper without the springs http://search.horizonhobby.com/index...d=129492CEA24F hope that helps
