what motor to buy Hello im buying the electronics for my new TF2 now i need to buy the motor i have this in the list but i need your advise Team Brood Intensity 45T RC4WD 540 Crawler Brushed Motor (45T) Yeah Racing Hackmoto V2 540 Brushed Motor (45T) The ESC is the hobbywing 1080 |
Re: what motor to buy The Brood motor is the best of the bunch if you mind spending the extra money. The Hackmoto motors are about as cheap as you can make an open endbell motor but they generally work well enough. They can be rough out of the box some give them some time to break in the brushes. The RC4WD motors are either the super cheap closed endbell ones or the rebuildable ones that are the same as the Hackmoto for 3X the price. Either way you can do better. Not knowing the buying options where you live, consider the Holmes Trailmaster brushed motors if you can get them. They are a relatively inexpensive sealed can motor but Holmes specs better magnets and a bearing on the output side of the motor shaft compared to most sealed can motors. |
Re: what motor to buy I would never recomend any motor as slow as a 45t unless there is absolutely no way to gear down for the speed you want. I would go 48p gears and 9t pinions and a faster motor. |
Re: what motor to buy 35T or even 30T is what I use. 3s and more wheelspeed without needing 2 speed transmission. It's all I need. As for motors, buy a good quality rebuildable motor. Holmes or Tekin are my preference, but plenty of others about. |
Re: what motor to buy At least 35T. Never goes beyond 35T. You could run smallest pinion to archive scale speed. |
Re: what motor to buy Reedy just came out with Crawler motors, check them out! 5 Pull motors are the smoothest best performing motors out there for brushed! https://www.teamassociated.com/news/...crawler_motors |
Re: what motor to buy Can you reverse the rotation on these motors for the TRX-4? |
Re: what motor to buy For brushed motors at zero timing just swap the wires. For rebuild able motors you can rotate the end ell 180 degrees. |
Re: what motor to buy The esc can reverse the direction as well but it can't adjust the timing. |

Re: what motor to buy Consider a quality Holmes Motor. |
Re: what motor to buy Yes, you can reverse almost any brushed motor just by inverting the polarity on the wires |
Re: what motor to buy I would suggest Holmes Hobbie motors. i have the 12 turn and the 21 turn and geared down with smaller pinion and it works great and quality motors. |
Re: what motor to buy I only buy Holmes motors and don't see that changing... Awesome products and support, unbeatable presence on this forum: https://holmeshobbies.com/motors.html |
Re: what motor to buy Holmes Hobbies Crawlmaster, /thread |
Re: what motor to buy I recently bought a GoolRC 27t and an Austar 55t. Both are working great and they're about $10 each only. Both having replaceable brush, bearings at each end and timing can be adjusted. |
