|  My Brief but Exciting Introduction to Hand Wound Motors
I've been running Tekin 45T machine-wound motors front and back and been perfectly happy with them, but when I got a chance to grab some newly rebuilt HH Torquemasters I jumped. My Tekins had 20+ hours on them and were still chugging along with my stock gears. I installed the HH's over the weekend and after less than 30 minutes:  I was going up a line I've done dozens of times and the back wheel got a little bound up. I goosed it just a little bit  . Dang--sounded like a rifle shot! Making a note: torque is my friend but use it wisely  Good thing I ordered some RC4WD gears last week and have them sitting on the bench. (the low speed ability of these HH's is extremely cool!) |

Pure power!  The RC4WD gears seem to be pretty stout.... |

I have about 6 or 8 pairs of the gears that you broke. They are just sintered and not made to handle our abuse. I have not broken a rc4wd gear yet.
