Monoperm Special

[Gary DysonParticipant @garydyson81492]

Hello all, Its my first time posting a question, so here goes. I am building a Graupner Vegesack my first attempt at building a r/c boat, in doing so it has inspired my father to dig out the Graupner Commerdore he built (around 1975) he fitted it with twin Monoperm Special motors (grey in colour with a red lever on the rear) for the life in him he cannot remember what the red levers are for ?

Does anyone out there know , Thanks in advance .  Gary

Can you see if it is moving the brush gear or altering the speed of the motor?

Gary – It’s a 3 position reversing switch, the centre position is off.

Possibly an integrated switch…… either on/off or clockwise/anticlockwise – I seem to remember my Meccano motors having these functions.
