each chassis, including:
. Motor cavity of frame is filled with an average of 3
oz.. of lead and shaped to fit motor
. Frames are custom machined to accept certain shells or represent certain
protoypes (where applicable)
. Powerful, low current draw can motor is attached to modified frame with
urethane foam tape (to absorb vibration)
. Custom made precision brass flywheels with Athearn couplings are fitted to
motor shafts
. Flexible multistranded wire is hand soldered to motor leads for trouble free
electrical continuity with motor to truck connection made with removable spade
tabs
. Motor to chassis ground eyelet is pressed into predrilled hole in chassis for
reliable conductivity
. Athearn trucks are disassembled and the components are closely inspected,
adjusted and fine tuned prior to reassembly
. Labelle #102 and #106 lubricants are applied to all drive components where
needed
