I thought I would try the Fussybrush comm sleeve's. I was very impressed, I tried 2 monster stocks that the comm was down to .270. Both when they were redone were .305. You could even get a little bigger on some. I tried them out last weekend and wow! They are now my best motors, I am a dealer for Paradigm and Team 1 motors so I have some good ones. I think having the comm a little larger helps, they ran very cool also. It does take a little time and some tools to do but a big savings. If anyone wants to try it I can put a sleeve on for you for $10.00 this will include shipping back to you. It works good on Mod or stock, but the comm can not be chewed up to bad, or burnt up.

Hi! I'm wondering which solder you are using to solder com sleeves on?

I used some I bought from Mcmaster Carr. The brand name on it Merway, it's a 60-40.

make sure if you dont run one of these at a sanction race.. once you put on the fuzzy it is not legal anymore.. great for the budget racer, or weekly club racer though...

Are you saying that ROAR doesn't like it when it's warm and fuzzy.LOL

The ones I did you would have a hard time telling if it was redone. I wouldn't try running one at a Roar race. But any local track shouldn't have a problem with it. Beside's it's only a little savings on a stock motor, but a big savings on a hand wound mod.
