well the best motor would be a puller 7t but that 80 bucks. Depending on the weight of you crawler i would do like a 55t. Since you are using the r2d it is geared really low so you will have tons of torque so that not a big issue. then i would also get a tekin frx or run a mamba max. If you use lipo youll gett a better run time.

IM not sure of the R2's gear ratio... but the TXT's are a 2:1... so, you might have to run some kind of gear reduction. i am running a GD600 (gear reduction) with a ratio of 3.8:1 on a txt trans with a ratio of 17:1 and i am running a 12t pinion on my motor... do the math and it is a 215.1:1 ratio... you probably didnt need the last part...but, i figured id toss some numbers out for ya.  |
