Heat and fit: Tamiya 84293 blue motor plate overview

The Tamiya 84293 Blue Aluminum Motor Plate is a straightforward upgrade made to help control temperatures on Type 540 motors. Its blue anodized surface adds corrosion resistance while the 0.5mm thickness can act as a thin spacer to assist accurate motor placement.

Compatibility notes for Type 540 installs

This plate is intended for RC builds using a Type 540 motor. The anodized aluminum finish offers extra wear resistance, and the 0.5mm profile is useful when you need to nudge motor alignment for an optimal gear mesh without altering the gearbox.

When to fit this plate

If you often run long sessions or push hard in sprint events, managing motor heat and achieving correct pinion to spur alignment matters. The Tamiya aluminum plate helps move heat away from the motor housing and lets you fine tune position to reduce gear wear.

The plate is cut and sized for Type 540 mounting patterns. Other motor types may have different bolt layouts or lengths, so check dimensions before assuming a fit.
Aluminum conducts heat away from the motor case and the anodized finish protects the metal. Used together with proper ventilation, the plate helps disperse heat buildup during longer runs.
Yes. The 0.5mm plate doubles as a spacer for fine adjustments to pinion to spur mesh. Make incremental changes and test mesh by hand to avoid excessive gear contact.
