| Scx24 and castle 0808 motors?
With the new sidewinder 2 micro I found the combo deal for the 0808 brushless motors. They are 20mm in diameter so maybe they will fit in this crawler? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

I guess the micro sidewinder is not new. But that motor? Any ideas if it will fit? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

Maybe if you look into an aftermarket transmission on shape ways? I think the 030 motor that is in it has flat sides. They have a cool transmission for a 370 motor. And I was thinking of trying to fit a 380 homes hobbies revolver… https://www.shapeways.com/product/B9...70-motor-mount Check out the video on that page also. Hope I helped out! |

To each their own, but some things to consider. The castle motor is 20mm thick and 38mm long which is 5mm thicker than the flat side of a 130 motor and about the same length as the 180 motors. However if you didn't care about raising your weight and center of gravity with a huge heavy expensive motor you may as well go with the Holmes Hobbies 380 mini revolver. IMO it's still too big for a micro and better suited for a 1/18 comp Losi mini/slick rock/ 1/18 temper, but it's $10 cheaper than the castle motor, smaller, lighter, with MUCH more torque and being a Holmes outrunner should be much much smoother than a castle inrunner. https://holmeshobbies.com/motors/bru...ensorless.html Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk |

I figured for certain the 380 is to big for the stock transmission. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

What about the micro toro systems. They are 25A and about the same size. 20mm diameter can x 38mm long https://www.hobbypartz.com/26p-blcom...5a-5200kv.html Last edited by jimbo74; 10-08-2019 at 05:34 PM. |

Actually somebody makes a 370 motor plate so the Holmes hobbies weevolver is an option! https://www.shapeways.com/product/EH...onId=116749406 I might be happy enough with a standard brushed motor at this size though. Cheaper and quieter. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
