Sharpen Brushed Motor Electronics with Tamiya 42299

For builders using brushed setups, the VG Booster and VG Capacitor are useful additions to tidy the electrical side of your model. They address voltage instability and motor-generated electrical noise that can affect handling and response.

Smooth ESC Power with the VG Capacitor

Fitted to the ESC, the VG Capacitor evens out transient voltage dips during heavy acceleration. This helps the ESC maintain a consistent power feed so throttle input remains predictable in tight situations.

Reduce Motor Interference with the VG Booster

The VG Booster connects at the motor to suppress electrical noise from the brushes and commutator. Reducing that interference supports cleaner motor behaviour and steadier control under load.

Specifications

  • Applicable Motors: Brushed motors (e.g., 53983, 54176)
  • Compatible ESCs: Models like 42123
  • Installation: Requires soldering

These Tamiya parts are a sensible electrical improvement for anyone running brushed motors, improving voltage stability and cutting down on motor noise for a more consistent drive.

A careful solder-in installation usually takes 20 to 40 minutes depending on access and your soldering speed.
Check your kit or event rules; fitting aftermarket electronics can affect warranty or compliance in some cases, so verify before modifying.
Once soldered and secured, they need little maintenance beyond occasional checks for secure joints and clean connections.
