Yea,I running 2 in a stick,They have great drag brake and work real good in a clod.The only reason I don't run them in my comp rig is they are limited to 7 cells.I like my lipo 3 cell 14.4 power.

can I ask why you run 2? Can't you just run the motors in sequence?

Yes you can,but I have a DX6 and I can dig front and rear.Also it helps to climb when you can throttle the front motor and ease on the rear.

I love mine!! I'm a noob when it comes to crawlers or electric r/c...and it is very easy to set up and install.

x2 the drag brake works very well!!! it will hold my truck on any hill I have found...



Question: can I hook up 7cells with two 55 turn novak motors in parallel?? like I said i'm a noob...I currently have a 6 cell.

You bet. You could hook up 20 motors if you wanted, as long as you're only running 7 cells through the esc. Of course, your run times might suffer :-P

I am running the crawler in my axial 2.2 comp and also love it! Just wasn't sure if 2 motors would be a problem...this is my first clod build.
