Default Novak Rooster Crawler Question

bit of a newb question...

i am planning to get a rooster crawler esc for my TLT Tuber but i am really confused about the motor limit listed in novak's site. it is stated that you could use single 27t motor or dual 35t-55t motors. (there were also 2 motor limits listed in their specs of the rooster crawler).

my questions are...
1. could i use a single 45t or 55t motor in it without any problem in the
2. ESC? is there anyone of you guys running the rooster crawler & 55t
motor/ESC combo?
3. what motor would you reccomend with the novak rooster (i am using a
pede tranny 87t spur and 17t pinion)

any info would be greatly appreciated... thanks.

The Rooster Crawler will work great with any lathe motor. If you want wheelspeed go with a 35t or 45t, if you want more torque go with a 55t or 65t motor.

Everything looks good to me. I would suggest 55t with the novak rooster crawler and a 17t pinion- it should work well. 6 cell nimh for your battery too.

I am running the Novak Crawler and 55T in mine its a great combo. I would say 55t or 65t is your best bet
