Reedy Power Retro 80s Brushed Motor 15T 1/10 27508

The Reedy Power Retro '80s 15T is a 1/10 scale brushed RC motor designed for vintage racing, period-correct restorations and classic RC builds, combining a 15-turn machine-wound armature with styling inspired by the Reedy Modifieds Ultra Series motors of the late 1980s.

The Retro '80s motor recreates the appearance and character of Reedy's historic modified racing motors while using a modern production specification suitable for running in compatible vintage and recreation RC vehicles. Its 3-pole brushed configuration provides traditional brushed-motor response and can be powered by either a 2S LiPo or 6-7 cell NiMH battery when used with a suitable brushed ESC.

Period-inspired details include the polished retro motor label, high-power brushes, copper brush holders, silver brush springs and red and blue heat sinks. This makes ASS27508 suitable both as a functional motor for vintage-style driving and as a finishing component for display builds where period-correct appearance matters.
