Refine Brushed Motor Performance with Tamiya 42299

For model racers and weekend builders using brushed motors, the VG Booster and VG Capacitor make a useful electrical tidy-up. Tamiya designed these to tackle voltage fluctuation and motor-generated noise that can upset drivability.

Keep ESC Voltage Stable with the VG Capacitor

The capacitor is fitted at the ESC to smooth transient voltage changes during acceleration. That smoothing helps the ESC deliver steady power and can reduce random cutouts or surges during heavy throttle use.

Minimise Motor Interference Using the VG Booster

Fixed to the motor, the VG Booster reduces electrical interference coming from the commutator area. This cleaner signal path assists in maintaining reliable motor performance and consistent control inputs.

Specifications

  • Applicable Motors: Brushed motors (e.g., 53983, 54176)
  • Compatible ESCs: Models like 42123
  • Installation: Requires soldering

These Tamiya accessories are a sensible electrical upgrade for brushed systems, helping preserve consistent power delivery and reducing noise for a smoother driving experience.

Only minimal changes are needed; the parts typically solder onto existing motor and ESC leads without major loom rework.
Yes, they suit regular hobby use and club-level competition where brush setups are common, improving consistency without major tuning.
Plan wire lengths, solder securely, and use heatshrink to protect joints; neat routing reduces stray noise and keeps components safe.
