Hi everyone

First off I know nothing about slot car racing or how the cars are built. what voltage the motors are and what RPM they run at

I don't know what size they are but I need a small motor to power my robots arm. I know I'll have to gear it down and thats not a problem the size is and voltage.

can anyone help me out with motor dimensions voltage for HO, 1/43 and 1/32 scale and shaft diameters

I am also looking for used motors in the same scale to try out without having to spend allot of money.

Does any body have a used HO , 1/43rd or 1/32 slot car motor that was too slow or just not right they would be willing to part with.

Please PM me with any and all info and what you need in exchange for a motor

Thanks in Advance for all the help

have you tried the motors out of an old pager? the ones that vibrate? you could pull to counter weight off and gear it that way. or leave the weight on and key your pinion gear to it.(if you are machining, of course)
