lol it probably does. I think previously you mentioned your near a wreckers yard... they'd sure be likely to have some good motors (eg, engine fan motors, window winder motors...).
Smile Otherwise you can always try online stores such as oatley ( http://www.oatleyelectronics.com/motors.html ) or ebay.com.au
Both aussie too. Smile

Yeah I went to the wreckers the other day but they only had about three blower motors all of which were very small and/or had really skinny shafts compared to my old trusty gemini blower motor. lol they kinda looked at me funny when i said i was buiding a combat robot. My only problem with oatley is that most of the motors that look like they have decent power are all 24V. Ebay doesnt have much either. Oh well ill find one eventually...

Yeah thatd be good. Id buy one of those oatley motors but they run on 24v and i cant spare the extra 2kg for another battery. Do supercheap still sell those compressors? If so what kind of power do they have?
