| Holmes hobbies cobalt puller 454?
I really wanted one of the cobalt pullers but i noticed you stopped making them or selling them. So how does the 454 cobalt puller compare in wheelspeed and torque and what CHEAP set up will be the best for a wheely king that i am going to mod. Thanks in advance |

Hey John, have an issue. I installed your Torquemaster ESC and I lost rear drag brake. The motors will hold in 4wd but once I go to front dig my rear is basically in free wheel. Here is my set up... Berg axles Torquemaster ESC (with a CC BEC) Punk dig Torguemaster motors 30T I did not have this issue when I had a Castle Mamba in the car. Any advice? |

Try the drag brake on the front motor going down a hill backwards just to make sure. If you lost all drag brake, it could be the ESC. If its just the rear, then I would think its the dig switch or the motor. | |

Yes, I use a "small" dot of blue locktite on my motor screws for the endbell. Dont use too much or you will strip the heads trying to get them loose. | |

I understand that but that what happened to mine puffed smoke and wasnt hot thought I blew it up but it was just the timing was screwy because the end bell was lose and if you have a coating or protective sheet on motor you could miss it

Sounds like the timing may have changed on one of them. I can fix you up with an armature and brushes if needed. | ||||

Hey Jon, I won a machine wound at crawlapalooza and was wondering what the turn count was. It's not on the bag or the motor itself.

Just want to say thanks for all you do for us John. Just picked up a lightly used 7T Puller. It was running faster in rev than fwd though. Looked in here first, saw you send someone to your motor thread. Went there and was able to get my Puller timed properly and I am one happy camper. This thing is a beast. Thanks again bud, now get back to work and get that degree. |

John, i have a Cobalt 7T and was wondering if the Tekin FXR can handle this motor. Which esc can handle this motor? I am looking for something small. Thank you for your help |

You will be just fine. Just about any ESC will handle them, they aren't too fast.

| 45t torque master problem
Hi, I just bought a 45t torque master (white can one) from a member here on rccrawler and was told it only has 3 comp runs on it. I put it into my ax10 and it is squealing a little bit in forward but not in reverse. Upon closer inspection I notice that it is coming from the brushes on the comm and not the bearings. I have tried putting a little sewing machine oil on the comm and that makes it silent for about 40 minutes or until the next battery pack. I have ordered some muchmore racing comm drops in hopes that that may fix it but I'm not too sure. Comm and brushes appear to be good but I am a newb when it comes to nice handwound motors so I'm not to sure what to do from here. Thanks for any help you can give me. Kurt |

You may have gotten some contamination on the brushes. The squeeling shouldn't hurt anything unless it is wearing into the comm. Try the comm drops, they should help.
