I’ve just acquired some Integy 55T motors or use and they have something different to the normal brushed motors I am used to, they have four tabs on the rear to connect power up to.
Has anyone used these and knows if there is a particular method of connecting them e.g. use two left for one connection and two right for the other instead of the usual one tab/lead per side, use the tabs in different ways to result in different power outputs?
No instructions are available on Integy’s website and I don’t want to kill the motors before I get to use them.

Pretty sure the terminals are joined together so you have more options where to run the cables or run two cables to each side of the motor if you feel like it. I have seen these in my RC car days.

There will be a pair of positive terminals and a pair of negative terminals like my picture below. If you connect it up and it spins the wrong way, simply reverse the polarity of the cables.

Craggle is exactly right

Thanks, I'll do that.
