Reedy have announced a hi-torque rotor option for the popular Sonic S-Plus Spec motor range. Because the rotor is produced using high-strength material, low-end torque and brake strength are improved with a reduction in fade during a race. The Hi-Torque rotor comes balanced for smooth operation and is easily identified by the part number laser etched on the shaft and its distinctive blue ring.
