Mabuchi S motor

[threesheds]

I picked up a hirobo rockn city and the manual says it was fitted with a mabuchi S motor. If it's the one on the chassis it has a red end cap
Anyone know how many turns they have ? Looks quite high 18+

A standard RS-540S was 27 turns of .65mm wire. Those would have typically had a black or beige endbell though. I don’t recall which my Zerda has. The only Red endbell I only remember was from Tamiya, the RS-540SD Black sprint motor. They were 23t

Thanks, possibly it's been switched during its history. The can is black/gunmetal colour. I wonder if there's a resistance test or measure for 540 motors. Back to search I suppose

I found some pics on Google, could be a tamiya 540sd but the label is gone.
I don't know whether that's good, bad, indifferent

here's a pic, tamiya 540sd or not.... bellend, sorry, end bell red and marked Mabuchi

Having seen some posts waxing lyrical about this motor I'm more curious.
