    When I converted mine to RCA, I'm pretty sure the motor was stamped "falhbauer"(however it's spelled ). Don't remember seeing a model number, though.

    must be FAULHABER becouse is GERMAN same as CHEYENNE, must be good motor for sure, maybe not the strong in the world but small and good for sure

    on DIRECT DRIVE system, many motors become so good, becouse they don have STY UP SPRING and dont move anything, so the torque of the motor is direct, can work good

    Hello No iron machines

    as far as the motor in a thunder/spirit is the Faulhaber 1724rs9

    this is rated for 9volt usage , thats why they have a limiter in the machines to stop u from overgoing 12volts
    as far as speed and power ....
    the ones i , gaston , and a few others use from maxon blasts these motors away

    i have been using the faulhabers way back when i started , a good motor but not the fastest one out there.. dont get the 12volt version , its retarded.

    hey Jack Steel, why does the thunder motor seem to have so much more power than the motor in my halo? not saying its a better motor or anything like that at all, I know that the maxons are the apex of quality motors for rotaries, and I know they have more than enough torque, etc. it just seems like the thunder is faster for some reason, in fact quite a few people claim it has too much? im just honestly wondering because I don't have the knowledge to support my claim, just talking from the way it feels to me, and you seem like you know whats up. by the way your new machines look awesome bro. any info would be appreciated, thanks

    I would say why one goes faster that the other is the fact that a thunder is a dd 4mm with a push bar where a halo has plunger to move before you get the power that takes some away from the motor making it feel slower. Just think if you replaced the halo motor with a thunder motor then see how fast it really is...

    on the CHEYENNE website, about THUNDER they say :

    NOMINAL VOLTAGE - 6 to 12.5 V
    FREQUENCY PER SECOND- 70 to 170 HZ

    170 HZ is more than 10200 rpm, is a lot , that motor 1724 don't arrive at this speed, we miss something here
