Brushed daily basher on 3s?
 

I've got a sidwinder sv3 and was running my titan 21t on 2s just fine for about a month never overheated or nothin...dropped in a 3s ran for 2 minutes checked temps were fine went back for a little bit and just starts rattling...what gives???

I run brushed motors in my drifters and onroads...even had a johnson run 4yrs...

Cheap sealed can motors don't like 3s. Drop a brushless in there and learn what bashing is all about. I run an sv3/5700 combo on 3s in my basher and I beat it like I hate it. No problems at all.

And you changed the gearing when you went to 3s or left it the same?

I checked with KD along time ago about doing this mod just lookin for some direction...the truck probably don't even weigh 6lbs...i know i need a 550 but I'm really thinkin one of their motors will work...if it carries an emaxx at speed it should carry this little thing...it's only 2wd with a spool not 4wd with 2 spools[emoji57]

Is there not enough load? Or should i try another motor? Maybe an axial motor...???! I'm getting another titan Traxxas said not to do the water break-in...but that's how i break them all in...might have to look up some old rpm stuff...anyone???

Anyone had any luck with the HH 550 21t motors on 3s??? I tried contacting them today but got no answer...

Re: Brushed daily basher on 3s?
 

I've been running a cheap axial 55t motor on 3s for over a year now. No issues with it yet. Yeah I would like a better motor, but this one just won't give up.

I run HH Crawlmaster 16T and 20T motors on 3s in scale crawlers and they love it. JRH has said for years "volt up gear down".

Yes i got in touch I'm slightly over geared...im running 32p 56/14 and the tech said i should try my 11...either way it goes i want the trailmaster 21t 550 motor....anyone running their motors in drift cars out there....I've got a pig of a drifter...currently running an atomik 15turn motor i would like the same overall wheel speed with a little more snap thanx
