im pretty sure its because you dont really need speed you need more power

From my understanding, higher turns = lower rpm, more torque, and uses less power. Lower turns = higher rpm, less torque, and uses more power.

Still kinda noob myself, so feel free to correct.

Lower turn:
longer run time
slower speed
less rpm
smoother throtle

For an ax10 i run a 35t for wheel speed and a 13tooth for the slower speeds.

The higher the number of turns, the more torque the motor produces, but also the less all out wheel speed it can achieve. If you are wanting to simple crawl really slow on the rocks, go for a 55T. If you are wanting great all around abilities for all kinds of terrain, go with a 45T. I wouldn't go below a 35T motor for a crawler, and I would only recommend a 35T if you were going with a 3S LiPo. Otherwise get a 45T or a 55T.
