I got the frenzy motor installed and it is nice and fast and has no cogging at low speed . but I had to get larger diameter mounting bolts. I had to elongate the holes in the motor plate. turn the stock pinion around and grind some off the pinion length. but it was ez the plate drilling is like butter .and you could get a different pinion and not have to mod the stock one .so im very happy with it . i will post a video with the speed and low speed control when i get home from work . motor was 13 bucks cant go wrong with that .

so make thread for the fireball, and show the video footage of the performance. also you can post it up in the motor suggestions thread someone made.
so we can compare .because just saying its great motor isn't helping anyone IMO need the video.lets make that one the "my motor shaft is bigger than yours thread " this is mostly discussion of the 370 frenzy motor and I am gonna compare it to the insane 370 motor that I have so you are welcome to post a video of the fire ball on here if you like .thanks for the posts

I tried out the Insane 370 and it is about the same speed/power except the drag brake improved with this motor over the frenzy so this one is staying in . No roll at all with the Insane motor.

I got my Frenzy motor today and I did the same. I guess double wheel speed, works real well for 13 bucks!

Forgive me, the mrc is my first crawler and i need a new motor and would love to do this to mine. Can you guys tell me what size bit you used to drill the plate the motor bolts to? and is it all plug and play?

I got an MRC-scaler. Weights about 2 kg so it's far from original anymore. Had to use other pinions. Used a 11t to a 60 t spur. Soon will change to a 10t - 62t spur. Change pinions, works well and you'll have tons of torque and just enough wheel speed. And I'm using regular Nimh bats so a Lipo 2s would blow this thing straight to the moon. But I really do not recommend a Lipo 3s.

I have tried the slider motor and the Reedy stump puller. Currently I am running the Holmes Hobby TMM, it is a solid motor. I have only heard great things about the contraband motors. It will be my next motor.

The contraband is the mafia motor no? If that's right I guess I will choose between the HH mini torque or the mafia contraband..

The insane had better drag braking ability than the frenzy(about the same speed and power). but my next motor is also gonna be the contraband.
