    SLOT IT 2020 Motors
    MX16 = white endbell replacement for the orange (21.5k) and dark-orange (23k) motors
    2017 used the same model/part#.
    New models have a tatoo or engraving indicating 23k or 21k (MX15) speed.
    (NOTE NSR motors have included a fairly robust tatoo under the foil for years. resistant to oils and Vodoo juice.)
    Slot.IT seems to have stopped offering a ‘two ended’ motor.

    Common specs: 23k RPM, 170g torque @12v, about 5g more torque than the older light-orange 21.5 models.
    MX16 = Endbell drive, so for all small-can Inline applications with modern pods.
    %In the catalog it appears as a Double-ended motor but on retailer’s sites it appears to only have a long shaft on the endbell side%
    MX16-M = Can drive, for many sidewinder applications.  Bell drive pods are still available.

    Black Endbell: MX15
    This is the OEM motor in the DTM cars.  21k RPM, 150g torque @12v
    Double-ended (long shaft on both can and end-bell)
    Same specs and model# as 2017 catalog.

    MX17 = 29k 150g tq ~ replaces the old Red end-bell (now white).

    25k Yellow end-bell seems to only be available as NOS from retailers.  Never seemed as reliable as the NSR 25k anyhow.

    ** Long-can/Boxer motors have not changed.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
