With more than 30 IFMAR World Championship titles, Reedy Power introduces the Retro ’80s 15-Turn Motor—a faithful tribute to Mike Reedy and the legendary Reedy Modifieds Ultra Series motors that dominated RC racing during the late 1980s.
Designed to capture the character of the original Ultra Series brushed motors, the Retro ’80s model celebrates the performance and racing heritage behind countless on-road and off-road victories. Its classic 15-turn machine-wound armature delivers strong performance reminiscent of the high-output modified motors that racers remember from the golden era of R/C competition.
“Reedy Modifieds powered race winners around the world in a wide variety of racing classes,” said Rick Hohwart, Reedy Department Manager. “We wanted to create something that feels true to that heritage, whether it’s installed to race or used to complete a replica that looks and runs just like the real thing from that period.”
