OK guys. S. Neu had offered to let me get a different wind motor, so I emailed him and let him know that I'd take the 1512/2.5d.

I got a package in today. I was a bit excited, when I opened it up. Guess what was in there. The same motor that I sent them. So much for the offer. I guess something in the lines of communitcation got crossed someplace.

Oh well. After over a month of waiting around for Quark and Neu, I still may not have a track worthy truck. I'll throw the 1.5Y in and gear up and see what happens.

This may be the time to throw in the towel.

For those of you that are looking at the 1512 1.5Y for a truggy, I can't say anything except that you will be disappointed if my experience with this motor is going to be typical.

I was reading in this thread here that the D an Y motors are in fact a little different. That the D wind tends to work well in either rotation direction and the Y wind motors work better in one rotation directn vs the other.

Could it possibly be that the Y wind you have is spinning the "wrong" way?

Maybee I read this wrong or just didnt understand what I was reading....

EDIT:
I think that might be the wrong thread... But I do remember reading that around here recently. Not sure exactly where now. Anyone know anything about this or.... I could just be talking out of my ass.:002:
