380 / 400 Motors ( from Facebook )....
Noob question. Are 400 motors drop-in replacements for 380s? (Dimensionally etc.)
Yup 380 is american for 400
Thank you.
Yes, dimensionally, not necessarily from a performance point of view. The 400 motor shown above is a five pole, low power one supplied by Mtroniks, good for slow scale stuff, not for fast things.
This is a fast 400.

Cheers, the JP ones are the ones I'd ordered as I remembered the advice from the new club I'd joined - "the black ones".
