See my latest post in the motor/ pinion thread let's help each other thread, this motor is the best! I will post up a vid as soon as I can but no BS this motor is great. If you have one try it, you won't be dissapointed. 3 cell lipo, 15T pinion, sidewinder esc, Titan, 15-20 minute run time before my old worn out motor even got warm/hot, great torque/ wheelspeed, and best of all it's super cheap! You all will definitely be amazed.....Rubbaneck was. Gotta go for now will post up soon with an update.

mann0mann · 06-08-2009, 02:27 AM

Any issues with making it fit?

DISTURBIN' tha PEACE · 06-08-2009, 04:00 AM

I believe it's like the pullers, you need to outboard the uppers & move the RX tray back one hole.

I can't believe how well this works. Guys if you are in need to try some wheel speed and torque for a cheap price, check this one out! http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXXF54&P=ML

Here is his other post.
Motor-Pinion-ESC let's help each other!!!

This will tell you what you need to know to make the Titan fit. I am going to try this when I get home.

Mic · 06-08-2009, 11:38 AM

I am going to try it. Thanks for the heads up on it.

Ralphy · 06-08-2009, 03:39 PM

Here's a short living room vid.....get ready to turn your head sideways!

jeremy h · 06-08-2009, 03:48 PM

link doent work

Ralphy · 06-08-2009, 03:53 PM

more to come next vid will show how good the slow speed control is!

Rubbaneck · 06-08-2009, 03:56 PM

I love wheelies. MORE!

Red Rockcrawler · 06-08-2009, 04:17 PM

Thats what I like about crawling trying odd things and they work. Would never thought about a stock titan motor.

werty · 06-08-2009, 04:36 PM

waiting for the video
What esc you using

Ralphy · 06-08-2009, 04:45 PM

And a couple more , one of the slow speed control couch crawlin and one to show how it fits, sorry bout the quality, it's with a cell phone camera and I am using my left hand to control the throttle so I am a little glitchy moving forward where it is actually very very smooth normally, will post better stuff asap.

ripper7777777 · 06-08-2009, 04:57 PM

Ahhh man you beat me to it, well I just got my Losi an hour ago, oh well...LOL

My Specs:

Losi Straight out of the box, no break in no added grease.

Sidewinder

3s 1500 mah

6 buck 550 motor

15t

Just ran 17 minutes till the wife called and asked if I was ready for dinner.

Ambient temp 88*

The motor was hot after the rocks, but nothing else was, if I experience the reduction in heat that everyone else has by reducing friction in the driveline than this motor should be the budget way to go. I'd compare it to my Axial with a 55t and 18t on a 3s.

Now the motor would burn you after 3 or 4 seconds, but no signs of thermal meltdown, hell I wouldn't touch my motors in my max after 15 minutes of running.

I did turn off the drag brake and set my steering way low just incase, I gots Crawler #5, not sure if that's good or bad...LOL

I'll get some video on the rocks when I can.

Ralphy · 06-08-2009, 10:13 PM

ELL YA DUDE! Good to see others experimenting with cheap 550's...everyone else should take notice, cause these motors are great for the losi.

keala · 06-08-2009, 10:58 PM

o.k. 550 titan it is! i just saw all the vid's and i'm very impressed. i was gonna go the "all losi" way, but this seems to be the way to go. on top of that it's cheap. how would you feel if i ran an fxr instead of a sidewinder? lmk your thoughts on that. thanks sikax10.

Ralphy · 06-08-2009, 11:09 PM

I don't see why it would make too much of a difference, the sidewinder is only rated for a 35t ON 3 Cells but it works great in mine so the FXR should keep up fine too. Maybe just check the Turn limit on 3 cell lipo, if it's simialiar or lower than you should be good to go in theory. Let me know how it works out for ya.

keala · 06-09-2009, 12:18 AM

will do, got my titan ordered and it's on it's way. thanks again

rocresq · 06-09-2009, 12:19 AM

Niice find. I was a the lhs today and almost picked one up thinking I might be on to something! Looks like you beat me to it

Flyin Hawaiian · 06-09-2009, 12:26 AM

Installed my beater 21T titan and 14 tooth in my Comp crawler and wow what a difference. It help with the stalling but didnt get rid of it. Nice and smooth low end and rips top end. Does get warm but not hot like the HH 35T did. Saving up for brushless Still haven't found a good one yet.

Good find man
