|  Need help choosing a motor for my trailfinder 2
I'm going to toss in a hh torquemaster pro 540 in the trailfinder I'm putting together right now. I'm on the road so I have no way of testing out some of my motors at home. I was thinking something around a 40t for a good comprimise of slow and good power in the low gear, with some decent speed in the higher gear.'d like to know some experience. I want a lot of power in the low end for crewing through gummy mud, but I also want some wheel speed for it. I'm trying to get my hh order in right now so nhope someone replies soon  I |

35t and 27t are the most popular for the trailfinder.

I should say that 35 and 27 are most popular through me. RC4WD tells me that 55t and 45t are most popular from them.

i have a tekin 35t on 2s in mine and it's been great in both gears. was thinking about throwing a 27t or just bumping up to a 3s for a little more wheel speed in high gear.

I'm happy with a 21T Traxxas 550 on 3S. Costs $20 so I don't get nervous about it in the slop. Plenty of tourque and wheelspeed.
