|  Anyone using the Crawlmaster
The crawlmaster bolts up just fine to the tranny of the AX-10 but, when you use the stock 14tpinion and 87t spur gears, the motor sits to close to the tranny. This would be fine if it was a brushed motor, but seeing as it is a brushless outrunner, when the motor turns, it rubs against the tranny case. This is a big no-no!!! Will a bigger spur gear like a 93t solve the problem? Also, should I change to a bigger pinion gear as well. Any info would be awesome on what others are doing to solve this problem. THANKS  |

I had the same problem with the Scorpion 3014 - I just dremeled a little off the top screw sleve on the tranny and it was fine.

My son is dropping driveshafts with a 55 turn lathe motor. A crawlmaster would kill it!  |

I thought I read in the instructions that there was a "optional" outrunner plate you can buy? Would that solve the problem?? I was thinking of getting the Mamba Crawlmaster also... :-(

Doesn't matter - I wouldn't pay for a new plate with 5 seconds with a dremel fixes it.

the CrawlMaster has a standard 1" bolt pattern like any 540 can... the optional plate is for the smaller bolt patten brushless motors... the CM is a monster in size and performance... I'm using a 14t - 90t combo with no rubbing.... you will get some rubbing on the skid plate which is easy to fix with #4 washers between the tranny and skid.... no grinding needed  |
