Maclan Racing MRR Team Edition V2 motor

Coming from Maclan Racing is the new MRR Team Edition V2 brushless motor. The newly-developed power plant was designed with the latest stock racing rules in mind and it features an all-new design stator, sensor unit, motor case, and realigned rotor and sensor position for maximum performance. The motor will become available in 13.5T, 17.5T and 21.5T variants, it weighs in at a lightweight 150g, is 100-percent hand-built and will hit stores in late September.

Fantom FR-1 v3 Pro Spec brushless motor

Fantom have introduced their FR-1 v3 Pro Spec brushless motors. Coming in a new, red-anodised aluminium can the motor utilises a redesigned stator that is made from premium-grade Kawasaki steel while maximum diameter allowed pure copper wire makes for the lowest resistance possible which results in more power and RPM and great fade resistance. The can is heavily machined to maximise heat dissipation and CNC-machined Billet T6 aluminium end plates ensure precision bearing alignment. The motor is rounded out by a newly designed rotor, gold-plated thick copper solder lugs and high-RPM precision bearings. The FR-1 v3 is available as v3R RPM and v3T torque variant to suit different needs and it comes in 10.5T, 13.5T, 17.5T, 17.5T Tour Spec, 21.5T and 25.5T winding options. All of them, except for the 17.5T Tour, are additionally available as Team Works or Team Works Plus motors including ABEC7 hybrid ceramic bearings and more.

Tekin RS Pro Black Edition ESC & Spec-R BL motors

Tekin have introduced their new RS Pro Black Edition brushless speed controller and Spec-R motors. Starting with the ESC, the RS Pro Black Edition was developed with ultra low internal resistance in mind to boost the performance of 1S and 2S-powered stock motors. This was achieved by utilising both hardware and software advances in combination with the Ultra Low Resistance ULR circuit design and ULR flex wires. The controller measures 24.5x33x17.25mm, it weighs in at 35g and it has no motor limit, however Tekin recommends their RSX controller for all modified applications as these setups tend to run at higher temperatures and so the billet housing and fan shroud on the RSX will provide more sufficient cooling.

Speedzone introduce new modified & stock BL motors

Speedzone have introduced their latest brushless motor based on months of testing and previous customer feedback. This latest motor is the most powerful, efficient, tunable and lightweight motor ever offered by Speedzone. The motor’s can was built to allow maximum air flow, keeping temperature cool and the motor efficient. The stator was designed to produce the very best resistance while being as light as possible without sacrificing performance and power. In addition, the sensor board was built with strict tolerances which now translates to evenly distributed sensor board numbers. A variety of spec and modified turns are available and they are bench tested to ensure sensor, stator and ball bearings are all functioning to a strict quality control. Optional spec and modified rotors will be available for tuning to various track surfaces and conditions.

Nosram N22 540-size modified brushless motors

Austrian Nosram distributors MW RC Cars have introduced the all new N22 540-size modified brushless motor. It makes use of a lightweight 7075-T6 aluminium can with maximised cooling cut-outs for improved airflow and thus low operation temperatures. A heatsink design and black surface coating further helps with efficient heat dissipation while an optimised sensor design and timing range, dual-axis balanced sintered rotor and 4x10x4mm ABEC5 bearings help to get the most out of the new design. A unique, waterproof PreciSensor assures precise operation with any speed controller and the motors are available in 3.5T to 10.5T variants with odd and even winding options.

Yeah Racing Mobster 540-size brushless motors

Coming from Yeah Racing are the new Hackmotor Mobster 540-size electric brushless motors. Featuring thicker stator wires the “outlaw” motors will offer greatly improved performance and lower running temperatures compared to motors build after the rules of the major sanctioning bodies. The motors utilise premium-quality ball bearings, high-purity copper wires, high-power neodymium magnets and the aluminium endbell makes for improved heat dissipation. Available now are 4.5T and 7.5T modified as well as 10.5T, 13.5T, 17.5T and 21.5T stock variants.

Muchmore Fleta ZX V2 6.5T Type-R 1/12th scale motor

Muchmore Racing are busy adding more variants of the new Fleta ZX V2 motor to their portfolio with the latest outcome being the 1S optimised 6.5T Type-R for 1/12th scale pan cars. Making use of the same teardown as the previous modified variants, the Type-R is specially tuned for 1-cell applications such as 1/12th scale modified classes thanks to a specific stator and rotor combination, resulting in smooth and controllable acceleration.
