    Hi, I'm building my first kit, Yeti 1/10 and learning about electronic specs which is fun and I wonder if someone could explain is there a difference between a motor that is 3500kv vs 3800kv? I might start with a 2s lipo and switch to 3s if it's too slow for me. From what I've read and...

    Hi, newbie to rock crawling and brushless motors here. I want to pair a custom chassis(1/10 size) with two brushless motors for a robotic project that needs to be able to carry a payload of about half a kilo off road. I will probably have a two speed gearbox for high torque-low rpm and low...

    MOW - Motor on wheel crawler

    Hi guys, this project was for a long time on my mind. I always wanted to build a crawler with a wheel hub motor. Finally I found electric components which seem to suit. I have already tested servo driven wheels, which was quite problematic. Now I m going for brushless gimbal motors. So let's...

    Thoughts on HH TrailMaster BL in SCX10

    I am trying to decide on a motor for my SCX10 Dingo. I like to crawl, but it's also fun to speed around the yard too. My last motor was a Novak FortyFive (45t) motor, which seemed to be way to slow for my liking. I am thinking about mating my MMP with the HH TrailMaster BL, since Holmes has it...
