Speed 550 Motors

[daniel hallman]

Any idea who makes this motor and if so how would I go about getting the specifications on it?:cool: :cool: :cool: THE LAB RAT...

Most if the 550s I've seen are made by Johnson Controls.

However, there are many other manufacturers out there, like Mabuchi, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the hobby manufactuers make ther own.

If it's a Johnson Controls motor, they usualy have "Johnson" printed into the can near the motor shaft.

Hope this helps.

I bet it's a Graupner.

Most of the Graupner can motors are made by Mabuchi. Here is data on their 550:

That's only one of the many 550 motors Mabuchi makes. When buying a motor from them you can pick mag types, brush material, winds, turns and
can style.
