need 6V DC motor

Post by sebastien »

Hello

I went through Akihabara yesterday and couldn't find any 6V DC motors like the one shipped in the motor party. Where did you find them There is no number or anything to identify them, and I would really like to get another one.

I tried using 3V dc motors delivered with Tamiya's gearboxes, but even running at setSpeed(100), it still gets too hot. And the 6V you offered is the just the same size to fit in the gearbox.

Thanks for the help

perfect. I managed to trace them to Huand Lung, but couldn't find any small reseller. Only the maker site from Hong Kong. Anyway. I'll come back during the week.
Thx for the quick reply

Hello

Sorry to bump the thread, but I couldn't find the motors in the shop. Do you still plan to add them?

Thanks
