The Atomic-Tuned 2 Motor PRO is pitched as a balanced motor for Mini 4WD PRO cars, trading some of the Rev-Tuned 2's top-end RPM for extra torque, which suits circuits with tighter corners or gradients where pure top speed is less decisive. Like the Rev-Tuned 2 Motor PRO, it was marketed under Tamiya's "New Spec, Still PRO!" tagline, suggesting the two PRO motors were refreshed and reissued as a pair. Chassis compatibility is limited to MS, MA and ME Chassis, the three chassis that make up the Mini 4WD PRO family. Peak torque of 1.8mN·m matches the standard, non-PRO Atomic-Tuned 2 Motor, but this PRO version's RPM band tops out lower, at 14,500 versus 14,900, reflecting its PRO-chassis tuning toward corner-exit torque over outright top speed.
Pinion gears are not included and must be purchased separately.
