Im loving the sport motor series really well put together. I can’t wait for my 13t crawlmaster sport 540 to show up in the mail to replace the stock motor that currently propels my gen8.I’m in Canada and found one from a shop up here in Quebec. I see now that you just got new 550 cans in stock and was going to order a 550 out of fear that I would want to stick with the larger can. But shipping to Canada is the same price as one motor. I think I’m just going to wait and see how the 540 size performs. Hopefully scale trucks Canada gets some new 550 in stock

I wonder John if it would be helpful for those less versed in terms and spec if you listed a factory 3 slot turn# equivalent into your descriptions. Kv listing is nice but I just feel like it would make it easier for people to make the choice of winding for their intentions.

Because of the kind of year it's been and the fact that sometimes we forget about the truly important things in life... What I would like to see in Holmes Hobby is health to John R. Holmes and family. I hope to see HH continuing to stay passionately involved in the RC hobby as well as remaining prosperous in all their endeavors. Holmes Hobbies has brought integrity, transparency, and loyalty to the RC community and I hope for nothing but good things for the future of this company. Thank you, John for all that you do... Your hard work and devotion does not go unnoticed nor unappreciated.

Hi John
Have been enjoying your products over a decade.
Would like to see motors that are lighter in weight

Also, an easier way to re sync or config dual MOA esc's. I was crawling just fine through 2 battery packs, then I set my moa for a pause for few minutes, then tried to drive again and only the rear would drive. what happened, How do I get he front esc to sync again?

I agree! Something for the micro crawlers would be amazing.

1. Stuff in stock so I can buy some of your awesome products!

2. Agree with the post above on a budget servo. Something in the 50-70$ range

3. John to continue to make posts here and YouTube videos. It definitely gives me a better feeling about purchases when they’re associated with a face rather than just a website.

I would like to wish everyone over at HH a Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. Been using your product for 8 years now, but nothing drives me up the wall more than wanting to buy something and can't get it cause its out of stock.

What i would like to see from HH in the new year is to actually have things in stock.

Longer wires +/- to feed servos and black wires for servos instead red/yellow/black you put now, only for a appearance.

Something similar to the Copperhead but with no case.

Light weight 4S ESC with a decent internal BEC for sensor and sensorless.

Yes to #2 and #3! HH videos are great. More HH hard parts would certainly be worth a look after the success of the Sherpa chassis. HH light/winch/accessory controllers would also be interesting.

Yes, I agree... and (if possible) with the Holmes Hold option (that could be turned on or off by user with Castle Link or similar)!

Try a Revolver with a Crawl Master Mini V2. It is smooth. The startup is even much smoother than my Tenkin Roc with on a MambaX. The wheel speed and kick are also better.

Ha, I only posted that being I remember way back he was developing a sensored outrunner. Turns out he did and it's come and gone, I just flipped through the whole thread.
Sensored Outrunner motors- Revolver S

Once I upgrade the servos on my Capra I'll go direct power and get rid of my external BEC then look at going to a Crawlmaster to replace the MMXV2.
For now I'll just get a Revolver

Any plans on a 2 in 1 combo (motor and esc) from you?
