Overview of the Rev-Tuned 2 unit

The Rev-Tuned 2 motor is a straightforward upgrade for Mini 4WD enthusiasts aiming to enhance race performance. It suits those starting with tuning as well as experienced hobbyists seeking reliable speed gains on circuits.

Brushes, RPM and on-track effect

Built with efficient metal brushes, the motor offers consistent power and longevity. Its RPM range of 13,400 to 15,200 supports strong top-end speed on straight sections, especially when used with small diameter tyres. The blue end bell is a visual cue of its performance focus.

Compatibility, voltage and torque

The Rev-Tuned 2 is compatible with a broad array of Mini 4WD chassis. It runs at an input voltage between 2.4 and 3.0V and delivers around 1.2-1.5mN-m of torque at recommended loads, allowing racers to tune gearing to match specific track demands.

Fitting advice and gear requirements

Installation is simple, but pinion gears must be obtained separately. Choosing the correct pinion helps balance acceleration and peak speed for your race conditions.

Yes. Its high RPM capability and durable brushes make it a sensible choice for club circuits that favour faster straight-line sections.
Not immediately, but inspect existing bearings and pinion condition during fitting. Replacing worn components can help the motor perform consistently.
Run a few controlled track laps to check gearing and temperature. Start with conservative pinion teeth and adjust based on acceleration and top speed observations.
