Extend the life of your RC motor by following these 7 steps to break-in your new RC motor.
Here's How:
Oil the bushings or bearing of the motor with one or two drops of oil on each one.
Attach a 4 cell battery pack to the motor and run it for about 5 minutes.
If a 4 cell battery is not available, install the motor in your car or truck, but do not install the pinion gear on it.
Put a fully charged 6 cell battery pack in your car or truck just like you would if you were normally going to run it.
Turn on the radio and the car.
Pull the throttle 1/4 of the way and let the motor run for about 5 minutes.
You can now finish installing the motor in your car and truck and go out and have some fun.
Tips:
Always break-in your motor after changing your brushes.
By breaking-in your motor, you create less heat and wear and tear on your motor.
