ive heard that slot car motors can be used as antweight spinner weapon motors.
is this true? and what sort of voltage, speed, torque am i looking at in a typical slot car motor.

yes it can be used.

there is a link to a good one (stinger) if you scroll down a bit. I will leave it to the spinner guys to give you some better info.
I normally use the Ninco Stinger MilitANT, CombatANT, ANTicyclone.
voltage 12v
speed 31000rpm
current 320ma
torque 226gms/cms
weight 24gms

how about one of these? http://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/item.asp?ID=2572http://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/item.asp?ID=2572
400-700 gram?
for an ant?
its weighs 43g
but you need the proper controller bit slow for brushless there are better out there
I have just got a brushless motor from the USA that does 65000 revs per minute at 12V. I have no way to verify this but it really does sound fast. Now all I need is a disc balanced enough to run at that speed.
Are you about to run an ant on 12V?
Thats not unusual Danny.
Pete, I think it might be worth constructing a dynamic balancer- there are some good plans around on the web, most seem to be an attachment built to be used on the lathe bed- model gas turbine sites are probably a good place to look.
I was considereing getting back into ants (I havnt built anything since WS4) but Im not so sure I will now :-p
Aha okey, can the reciever and servos handle that current or ist there a seperate battery for the reciever?
