JConcepts Silent Speed, 17T adjustable timing competition motor

The Silent Speed brushed motor by JConcepts is the perfect complement to monster truck racers looking to race sport-mod or scale - trail drivers looking for drive-able and rebuild-able power. One of the best aspects of brushed power is the ability to perform on a budget while performing at a high-level. The 17-turn Silent Speed motor, with dual ball-bearings, adjustable timing can be torn-down, cleaned and re-brushed at any moment for consistent performance.

The item is packaged into a handy cylinder giving it a retro vibe of how things were done in the golden age of brushed motors and cushioned at the bottom with a hard density foam so the motor always rests in peace. Also included, an instructional sheet for regular maintenance of the equipment and how, when, and where to go for updates, options, and rebuilding items. The Silent Speed motor works well in single motor applications like Axial, Element and a variety of scale and monster truck vehicles using a 540 can based motor.

The Silent Speed motors are the choice for monster and scale truck drivers on the circuit looking for dependable performance to leap to the top step on the podium. A great option as a control or hand-out motor, the Silent Speed has a lot of built-in advantages for events and promoters looking to level the playing field. As always, each motor is backed with JConcepts customer support and racing heritage.

Notes from the team

The ideal running temperature range of the motor is between 115-120 degrees. It's important to watch the operating temperature and adjust gearing appropriately to stay within the ideal range. Over-gearing, extended full-throttle and full-braking runs will heat the motor quickly. Any temperature over 150 degrees is risking permanent damage to the motor and internal components. Always monitor the appearance of the commutator, brushes, shunt and springs for excessive saturated heat as indicated by blue to orange or red coloring.
