A while ago i asked if anybody had fitted torque rings to HL tanks and drew a total blank (the steel ringfitted to most drill/screwdriver motors and the occasional model motor)
I've just found an information sheet on an old Kyosho motor i have and this is what Kyosho say;
"This ring or tube of silicon steel is mounted around the outer case of the motor. This will concentrate the magnetic field of the motor. By concentrating this field the torque of the motor will increase and the RPMs will decrease but the duration of running time will increase about 5% to 10%. This ring/tube is designed to be used according to the race and track conditions."
Sounds like a Tank thing to me.
