Hello,

I have some questions about RC car motors.  In particular the
Kyosho 24 degree stock motor.

What are the pros and cons of changing the timing on such motors?

Will the motors life degrade?

How much faster can it go?

Does it increase torque or increase RPM (or both)?

How much work is involved in changing the timing?

An aside:  Does motors have the same charactoristics in forward and
reverse?  How much percent decrease is there in reverse compared to
forward (if any)?
