there are many things in a motor that factor into power. Size is a big one, magnet strength and the number of poles. the size of the windings or the amount of copper in the motor. For example the HH trailmaster 540 vs the magnum 540. one motor is $15 and the other is $150 but you get about twice the power in the same size package. you will hear it a lot but dont buy into it. "Higher turns is more torque" If you want more power a 21t 3 slot is about as good as it gets for brushed power. put that on 4s and get smaller pinion gears and larger spur gears Even a $15 dollar motor will have plenty of power and crawling ability. Power doesn't need to be expensive. |

This is likely not a good comparison but I recently built a capra and put a HH 16t crawl master sport 540 in it. I also found another motor from the parts pile that is a skewed 3 slot 35t. Everything I've seen puts these in being about the same. I'm just wondering if the 5 slot is still better than a skewed 3 slot or would it not matter?

I believe its easier and cheaper to use extra slots to get the same effect. | |

necro time, but I think this thread also deserves to be anyway. not technically a crawler question, I dusted off my Pro-MT 4x4 the other day and took it for a rip. my ESC (Mamba X) is hitting thermal cutoff while my motor is still pretty chill (ESC is 160°f while motor is 108°f). Can I fix this with a gearing change or should I also switch from 3S to 4S? |

Check that the esc fan still works. The bec and high kv switching speeds heat up the esc. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk |

Did some searching but didn’t find what I needed…..getting back into crawling and want to upgrade the esc and motor in my old Honcho. I have a brand new Sidewinder 3 and am interested in running a HH Revolver…any input on this combo? Looks like most run sw4 or mamba, but I am a baller on a budget.

I've run a SW4 with a 2500kv revolver along with a Mamba X Micro with the same motor and can't really tell one from the other. I would pick up the kv you feel comfortable with and try it with your SW3. You won't be disappointed, IMO.

The revolver doesn’t play that well with a SW3, but is incredible with the SW4. Reason is totally different firmware from castle on these two . Hang up and Drive | |

The hardware is much different. Sw4 and mamba x series are all fairly close hardware. Sw3 is an older generation that can't sense back emf as well. SW3 will have a rough startup. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk |

Hi all, i hope this is the right place for my question, if not please move it accordingly. I recently got a cahrger skyrc e680, i need to charge some 6 cell, 7.2 nihm batteries. It says that we can define the voltage (not the Amps) that charger will use to charge the batteries. Is this really true? Anyone knows how to set the output voltage? At this moments i wasn't able to find how to set up charging voltage. Many thanks all Wishses of nice rides |

Does this look right? I'm a complete noob so I got the pre soldered CM V2 from Delux. Red and black BEC wires to the main leads on the CM. HH RX bypass adapter connected to the BEC and CM. Not sure what the JST is for tbh I just want to confirm before I solder anything. Running this with a SHV650 and Reefs 300IS. Obviously the SHV650 gets powered off the battery, but BEC for the 300IS.
