Titan 550 12 Turn

[revo_rob_1984]

I just got my new 12 turn motors for my emaxx, and i have been reading and getting some condesending information about break in.
I was wondering what you guys know about breaking in a brushed motor, is it necessary or what? and if so how do i do it?

I get a cup/bowl of water, and hook the leads to a low voltage battery and let it spin for 15 minutes, take it out, let it dry, and repeat. Helps the brushes break in and get rid of any chemicals left over from manufacture.


Edit: I say a low voltage battery, but i just use my powersupply turned down to 1.5-3 volts.

I'd start with one and see how it is spinning. If its not too slow, then i'd try two.
