Can Someone help me out? I need some Motor help..

Hello everyone.

So, I signed up to these forums to get some of Your oppions on some things.. I am a complete "Noob" when it comes to RC in general, But I do know Airsoft.. I am doing a project and I need to get the best possible motor that will fit.

Long, long story short, I need to find the faster motor that will fit into my AEP gearbox that also has Torque.

I was told that the "Big block micro rs4 motor" will work fine and will fit properly.. I have searched very quickly and found that there a bit Pricey, But I have heard they are woth it.

Can someone tell me what Size that motor is? Are there any other motors that will be fine with a High amp 8.4V battery? I dont want anything catching on fire, But I need speed with torque.. Sence its pulling a spring, It needs to be able to support itself with speed.. Sence these dont have Brushes, I am guessing they get hot quickly?

Any Ideas? I dont want to go to like Radio Shack and end up getting something that will be real slow, or burn out quickly..

Thanks a lot guys! Please post as soon as you can!

Is this for a mrs4 or your airsoft gun..........if its for your ride then i recommend getting the Graupner Speed 300 since they are the same motor.....just make sure that your handy with a dremel or get the bigblock motor plate as well. Its going to be fast with that voltage and get hot, so you might want to look at the 7.2volt version as well.

Well, Its for my Airsoft pistol, So I dont need the Motor plate or much of the mounting hardwear. I just need a good motor of that size that can handel a 7.2/ 8.4 Elite 1500mah battery without explodeing in my hand..

I basicly need a good motor thats the same size as the Big Block Rs4 motor. Are there other options?


Thanks a lot for that link! Has anyone ordered from that site before w/ good results?

One thing you have to understand that most of the motors that we list are all going to be manufactured by the same company......since your running 8something volts then i suggest going with a 7.2volt motor.......it will last longer. Are you looking for a closed endbell or an open one.....with the open one you can change the brushes when they wear out, with the closed you cant, but the closed ones are usually cheaper anyway.
