Thats what I was thinking but im not sure if it will fit in the swx chassis since it is longer then a standard motor.

| Have you squeezed this into the PD? If so then is there still room for a DIG I was looking at Holmes motors just last night, but was thinking of the Torquemaster (I was really looking for an FXR and then got seduced into looking further)! |

The Holmes Torque Master is a awesome motor at a very resonable price. That is what I have in my "OG Frogger" and I will be Putting in my "poison Dart".

The mini puller is fun, good power, very snappy, but I prefer the handwound 540's. I'm running a 35t and absolutely love it, the low speed resolution is like butter.

Personally, I'd run the Torqumaster pro in a 35t on a 3s lipo. I run 35t brushed motors on just about everything. I would love to try a pair of the 16t Crawlmasters in my berg sometime, though. Last edited by EvilTwin v2; 04-26-2011 at 08:06 AM. |

I have a cobalt puller motor in my swx chassis. Its a very very VERY close fit, but it does work! |
