What would be a good motor set for a beginner? I would like to know the price? I would also would like to know where to find them? i think part of that would depend on your building skills. you could spend a few extra dollars and buy a set of motors that are geared down all ready and just have to be bolted down into your tank. or if you think that is too much, you could buy just a set of reversible scooter motors and build your own set of trany's either using belts/pulleys or chain/sprockets. (but this may be as much if not more costly as just buying the geared motors) i think a few have even used angled drill's and just chucking them onto the drive axles. then there are the kiddy car motor and gear set-ups. (have heard they are pretty slow) i can't think of any other types of motor arrangements to choose from. if you can find them at a affordable price, i'd say go with the geared motors like the M-01's (or what ever some of these guys in here use) as it's one less thing to fiddle with in your first build Chris, _Odyssey Slipways_ (http://hometown.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
