Can I use this motor on carpet and asphalt tracks?

Yes, the motor works on both surfaces. Rotor choice and gear ratio adjustments will help tune traction and acceleration for each surface type.

Does swapping rotors require special tools?

Rotor swaps are straightforward with basic hobby tools. Ensure you follow correct reassembly steps and balance checks to avoid vibration.

What pinion and gearing should I try first?

Start with standard touring car gearing and adjust one tooth at a time. Monitor motor temps and lap consistency to find the right compromise for your track.

How do I check motor temperature safely?

Use an IR thermometer or fingertip test after short runs. If it feels uncomfortably hot, reduce load or adjust gearing. Consistent overheating indicates a setup issue.
