Default brushless outrunner motors

Uuhm sorry but the 49,99 dollar motors(Crawl master, revolvers etc)
are ment for crawlers and so they are sold like it.

I mean that all those are crawler motors, they are all good for crawlers.

If its your first BL outrunner in a crawler and you re still getting used to the power i would suggest the revolver, but when you want monster power that can shred your rig in 2 and still want to have power to spare than the Crawlmaster is a very good option.


Hope this helped

I run a 850kv outrunner. Very low rpm but very high torque. It is geared a little higher and i run 6 cells to keep from breaking SH__. But i s very easy to run motor. What king of rig are you running? That will make a huge difference

In a wheely king the revolver is easier to gear low with. I will have revolvers back in stock before the Crawlmasters too, both factories are being very slow with the manufacturing and I am out of stock.
