The first time you wind up and release a Wallop Co. motor, you’ll delight in its long-distance run and impressive acceleration. That’s when you’ll realize that these aren’t your normal pull-back motors. They’re high-torque, shockingly powerful, and they pack a wallop.
Large size. Raw power. All muscle and no manners, with enough torque to make you wonder if your build is sturdy enough. This is the motor that started it all, packing such a wallop that I was inspired to launch Wallop Co.
You get six motors, as pictured. Each one has its rear wheels attached and comes with a matching front axle and wheels.
Standard size. Dependable strength. A workhorse the size of your typical windup motor, it’ll fit most things you build, with way more power and stamina than the motor it replaces.

Tiny size. But mighty. A feisty little bugger that has no idea how small it is, and launches like it’s got something to prove. At 16.5 mm long it sits at 1/64 diecast scale.

I raced the Stout, our standard size, against two other motors of the same size. One came from a typical toy. The other came from a Battat brand car, my old go-to for 3D printed and custom Hot Wheels builds. All three ran in the same 1/64 car on a 16 ft track.
The Stout kept popping wheelies, so I added 8 g of tungsten to keep its nose down.
This is where the Stout shows how Wallop Co. motors are in a different league from the other options out there. Even 40% heavier, it handily beat the powerful Battat.
| Motor | Car weight | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Typical | 17 g | 2.93 s |
| Battat | 19 g | 1.32 s |
| Wallop Stout | 28 g | 1.12 s |
These go into 1/64 diecast customs, the bigger 1/32 castings, 3D printed chassis, custom toy designs, and STEM builds for the classroom.
I needed pull-back motors. But I felt bad tearing apart old toys for them.
While designing 3D-printed vehicles for my kids, I went looking for pull-back motors. But no one in the United States seemed to sell them. So I ordered straight from the best manufacturer I could find. When they arrived, I was stunned. They had far more torque, distance, and speed than what comes inside a typical cheap toy.
I thought, “Other people would love building with these.” So I started Wallop Co. My mission is to get these motors into the hands of hobbyists looking to give their vehicles some major pull-back power.

We publish dimensions for every motor, to make life easier for the hobbyist who wants to 3D print, hot-glue cardboard, superglue balsa, or duct-tape a cereal box around a pull-back motor to create the ultimate racer.
