Okay I just replaced my stock losi motor with a mini slider, but it seems like a rocket now and my battery doesnt last as long. Any Ideas on what I can do to make battery last longer and still have a little bit of wheel speed? Thanks |

You really need to remember that the slider is not designed for crawling. Its a really fast motor. And even tho you can gear it down it'll never have the torque that even the stock motor has. Best be if you want a better motor is the Holmes Hobbies Mini Torque Master. |

I guess I will throw a third recomendation into the HH Mini torquemonster motor. I have two right now and am waiting on funds to get another one for the third mini I am building. Also get a good adjustable ESC to regulate the power to the motor and you will be set.
