seconds of what ?

Post by **proffesso** » Sun Oct 23, 2011 9:22 am

running time, 240 seconds - 4 minutes, 480 seconds - 8 minute endurance

old, old school terminology with these motors, when 1200mah packs were the only thing around

so it means the lower the nr the stronger the motor?

stock - sealed 27x1
Le Mans - that you got already

05 - All the 540 motors we're so used to are actually "class 05" motors.

wasn't the Le Mans 05 a "simple" johnsobuchi with a black can and a hefty prices sticker on it anyway?
