    All – my key objectives were simply:

    1. Make members aware that a stable-performing (the ones I have anyway), spec-equivalent to the classic Slot.IT Orange end-bell MX06 21.5k motor, is commonly available for only $9

    ** it has a black end-bell, exactly like the Slot.IT MX15 21.0k DTM motor

    2.  Suggest that when/if any supply-chain or performance issues seem to appear, in the future, with any 21.5- 23k motors, that the membership be allowed to propose, and vote on, domestically available alternatives.

    Thanks for discussing the idea. “Case closed” for me anyhow 🙂

    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.
