I haven't tried that motor although I have tried the torquemaster 35t and the crawlmaster pro 13t and there great motors. I think they have more power than the puller motor but I'm not for sure. good luck.

Ohh so it's a new motor, well no wonder why I haven't heard of it lol. How does it compare to the crawlmaster pro 13t? Just curious to know

I used the crawlmaster pro in my old Wraith and I love that motor. But in my new Wraith I want to go brushless. So that is why I want to trie this motor.
And I like what I read when it says "you wil need upgraded drive trains in vehicles with locked differentials".

Its a hoss motor, comparable to a Pro4. We are waiting on the confirmed housings from the overseas machinist to start production. There will be three lengths, the 520 Stubby, 540, and 545.

I run a couple of the Trailmaster BL motors and love them! Blows the "comparable" competition(that I have ran) right off the dirt an rocks!

I feel it already touches on Pro4 status.. So I Can't wait to get me one of these!!!!!!!

Taiwan. I would love to make some here too but we are currently maxed out with bulk brushed motor production. Maybe I can afford another employee next year? I don't live near a border like neu and Novak with the migrant winders, so we gotta pay full price

Ooo Taiwan... Hahaha I see what you're saying..I hope the CrawlMaster Pro 13t isn't made in Taiwan or is it? Oh well if it, I love H.H. quality! I'm not putting your brand down at all, I prefer H.H. over other brands now especially tekin..just putting that out there

Japan parts and winding/ finishing the arms in house on the crawlmaster . I did just get a cnc machine to make our own housings and help the brushless side of production.

Oh then that's okay then, I actually don't mind japan parts but that's good that you got a cnc machine to do your own work. So just in a huge random question, how big is your company? I've wondered this for some time actually.

Oh and sorry for stealing this thread...

- Ohh that's cool John! If I was able to I would be glad to work for you although I can't haha. Anyhow, your company is growing really fast and I tell ya, people are starting (or have a long time ago) to like your motors and ESC's. Like I mentioned before, I use to be into tekin all the way and when that old tekin 35t went out for no reason I decided to get myself a Torquemaster 35t and that has a little improvement over the tekin with torque so I recommend H.H. to people now. Anyways, Good luck with business and I am a supporting customer for sure lol
