When I first tested my Tamiya twin motor gearbox I connected a 7.2V Li- ion battery pack to one of the motors (Mabuchi FA-130) for a few seconds. It still works, but do you think there's any damage?

Did I toast my motor?

Well, did you notice smoke or does it run differently than before ? = Without more to go on, it's difficult for anyone to help. Personally, I = would guess that it is fine - based on the absence of any other = description from you. What's it rated for ?
Good luck! JCD
I've run my twin motor gearbox off 7.2 volts for many hours, without any problems...
Later, Jon
