Anyone familiar with Team Tanaplan modified motors? HPI end bell but bushings instead of bearings.

I have some (all?) of their winds added to the reference guide but have yet to come across any additional information on them such as part numbers. Apparently they were based in London England, and made other hop-ups mainly for Schumacher it seems.

A person like dinglem might be someone who'd have more info.

I don't know if the armature in mine is stock, but it looks a lot like a 27x1 and the can and end bell both have a bronze bushing. It runs like a low spec stock motor, but the can says modified. The can label has been trimmed, so maybe that's what modified really means. :lol:

Excellent, thanks! I saw another one for sale with an Air Supply endbell, an that looks like what is in the ad too.

Mine is back to the correct Team Tanaplan can and end bell configuration, and with a strong running mod 13T armature that needed a home.
