Works well
It seams pretty good, but it is the same brand as the one that came with the car and that one broke. However, it lasted for year and a half. It is plastic geared but still fast and strong enough.

About this brushless motor
Digital rather than analogue means it holds the commanded angle against a loaded front end, which is what you feel as steering that does not wash out mid corner. Three wires, so it draws from the controller and takes its signal from the receiver — no separate battery. It is the same part in seven of our chassis, which is why it is the one spare we would pack before any other.
Where it sits in the HYPER GO RC car range
The 16700 is part of our Motors, ESCs & Radio Gear shelf, which carries 11 parts for the MJX HYPER GO range. Model code 16700 is the number every listing here is keyed to: quote it and the gears, shocks, wheels and bodies that suit this chassis all line up. It is a service part rather than a vehicle, so check the fits row before you order.
Fit and compatibility
This part is listed against H16GT, H16DR, H16BM, H16PL, 16208, 16210, 16207. Those codes are stamped on the chassis plate under the body; photographs are a poor guide at this scale, because neighbouring versions differ by a couple of millimetres and look identical. If the plate on your car is unreadable, send us a picture with the shell off and we will tell you which version you have.
Living with it
Electronics fail hot. Blow the heatsink and the fans out after dusty sessions, keep the wires clear of the spur gear, and give the car two minutes between packs in summer.

Questions about the 16700
- Will this fit my HYPER GO RC car?
- Match the model codes in the fits row above against the code stamped on your chassis plate. Brushed and brushless parts are not interchangeable in either direction.
- Does it need setting up?
- No. The 45A speed controls read the cell count when you plug a pack in and set their own cutoff. Receivers are bound with the transmitter held close to the car.
- What if the car powers up but ignores the handset?
- That is almost always a lost binding rather than a failed receiver. Rebind both units together before ordering a replacement.
What drivers say about this one
★★★★☆
Great little plastic servo but will fail with several uses.
I noticed how the servo wouldn't center back to its position. Luckily with some research I found out that JX Servo PDI-1181MG 18g works for Hyper Go (my H16PL 1/16) car/s and is way more responsive.
