Mardave g2 brushed motor
 

Just wondering which is the best way to clean out these motors after a days racing.Ive heard some people wash them out with soapy water ,others just use degrease spray ect.
Cheers

Brake cleaner then a drop of wd40 on the comm
or you can dip and run them in warm soapy water then use the spray

Do NOT water dip a G2 motor,as you WILL ruin the brushes in it. :thumbdown: Clean the com with either motor cleaner or some WD40 on a cotton bud.The new G2 doesn't like water at all,so the old tricks of bedding in the brushes by water dipping just doesn't apply here. If you really want to bed in the brushes,just run the motor for around 15 mins on a 3V supply,it does the same job.Then clean the com,and wipe with a WD40 cotton bud,and away you go.:thumbsup:

I have tryed a new method (Not cleaning it at all)
And it seems to work better than cleaning it!!!
Just squirt wd40 in before each run and off you go.
