I think I'd be just as happier with one of those old mini subs that you used to get in cereal boxes. Put some baking soda in it and toss it in the tub and watch it go up and down. But then I'm a simple man. Anyone remember those or am I really that old?

I see Nikko is still using the trusy ol' Mabuchi 540. I think it produces like 22,000 rpm. Try taking it apart and buying any Trinity modified motor from your local hobby dealer. Those crank out anywhere from 32k to 55k rpm. Then you'll have something.

Hmmmâ?¦I'd never thought of modding this thing, but perhaps you have something there. What do you think the likelihood is of this â??Trinityâ?ť motor existing in a form that would be a close enough fit for the stock Mabuchi motor to go in without too much extra hassle?

  I don't think I'll try any mods of this sort until either I get bored with it as it is, or it starst to suffer from some sort of mechanical problem that necessitates opening it up.  I have some worry that if I were to take this thing apart, I might not necessarily be able to put it back together and have it remain properly watertight.
