Reedy Power Retro ’80s 15-Turn Brushed Motor

Legendary US electronics brand Reedy has unveiled the Retro ’80s 15-Turn Motor, a faithful tribute to Mike Reedy and the iconic Reedy Modifieds Ultra Series motors that dominated RC racing in the late 1980s.  The new motor captures the spirit of the original Ultra Series brushed motors, known among racers for their legendary performance and role in countless victories on and off road.  With its classic 15-turn machine-wound armature, the Retro ’80s model delivers strong performance that echoes the high-output modified motors racers fondly remember from R/C’s golden era. “Reedy Modifieds powered race winners around the world in a wide variety of racing classes” said Rick Hohwart, Reedy Department Manager. “We wanted to create something that feels true to that heritage whether it’s installed to race or to complete a replica that looks and runs just like the real thing from that period.”
