Everyone tells you 48 pitch metric. So, you want to buy a 32P?

Oh crap, I'm helping you and I didn't even mean to. oh well, then try what I think I have used:

comment me
I also just got a robinson 13 tooth pinion, hopfully it will crawl better now

[Big Mike]

Unless you change the spur gear also, you need to stick with 48 pitch.
Changing from a stock 24 tooth to a 14 tooth pinion only cost me $3.50, but was far and away the single most impressive performance mod I've done so far.

Mud maybe? Try taking it apart and cleaning it. The brushes probably aren't making a good contact.

Also, can you turn it by hand or is it completely seized?

I havent had it in mud for a long time. And i cant move it for nothing. I havent taken it apart yet to check.

[west virginia krawler]

well found out the prob, one of the windings is broke. I probly could just soder it together, but im not happy with the motor i got. I think its a venom fireball 21d. So im gona get a new motor. i want to be able to mud it and get it wet
which motor should i get:
1) novak brushless crawler
2)integy 55t motor
3) revolver
4)momba 25 thingy
if theres any other motors that any of you would recomend plese tell me.

[west virginia krawler]

well i think im gona go ahead and get the integy 55t motor. I dont want to spend 250 bucks on a motor and esc. So do you guys think thats a good motor to get? Its kinda cheep and herd a lot of good things about it. Any sugestions?

[cartronicshn]

Try the axioms, i switched from integys to axiom and the difference in smoothness was impressive, throttle response was also enhanced i might even have gotten better run times also

cool does that motor have some torque, cause the old motor that i had ,had none.
and axoim motor are you talking bout?

[cartronicshn]

Axiom motors are actually enhanced integys, yes they have more power, i was running 75t with 9 tooth gears on my claw and 6 cells on a moped, it was great, i then went to 8 cells and it was awesome, though my esc doesn't reccomend it , check out the vendors section for the axioms i think JRH aslo sells them.

[west virginia krawler]

ooooo i see. Is this a good one?
