Does it matter my trx4bronco bronco has a 21t and do I need to go with same 21t. I'm new to this help

Really appreciate the humor! Too many other You Tubers forget that.

Your conversation with the neighbor dog cracks me up.

I bet that dog would love a 13t crawl master pro! Maybe a fancy esc too….. Along with some bacon! Love it!

Dude, thank you so much. I hope you never tired for reading that. I’m learning more and more, becoming broke, and more broke, trying to keep up, and keep my vehicles maintained. How ever it’s very frustrating when. You pay good money, and receive horrible quality control items that cost so much, and you help make my budget life, like many others, stay in the hobby world, and keep me sane. So Peace, and thanks.

Love the videos John I do wish they were longer I could watch for hours I like soaking up your knowledge and apply it to my rigs always learning something new and you make it entertaining

You're my hero John!! Discs, tiny trucks and wake n' bake are the only reasons I get up every morning, but ur videos and wake n' bake r the reasons I get up in the evening!! John Wayne Holmes we love ya!! Silly funny face goes here✓

hahaha, John got sense of humor and made my monday better for sure

I have a TRX4 sport with Traxx and appreciate this video. My vehicle definitely needs both wheel speed, as it goes through another reduction from being tracked, and torque to climb obstacles.

Good low end control and of course wheel speed ....good to see you John...

HH definitely my favorite motors puller pro 2700kv 540 and the trailmaster 27t 540 Awesome quality and durability

Wheel speed is a must. When in doubt throttle out 👍🏁

As always, great video and love the humor!

The editing in the beginning of this video is priceless fucking hilarious I love it

Excellent video and info. Nice southern drawl too.

Seeing examples of you driving was awesome. Def appreciate that. Magnum looks awesome

Very nice info dude.. your video clearly explained why we need more wheels speed for our rigs..

Doing some research, Thinking about getting a 13.5t brushless system for my crawler, this video really helped, plus I found a new channel to watch 😁🤘🏻

not only do your products seem outstanding, based on other videos, but your videos are great.

YES!!! Down here in the sandy dirty south wheel speed is needed for other things LoL.

You’re cheering section rocks that is the funniest one you made so far that I’ve seen thank you

Man it's super awesome man nice job!

Awesome video man great info been thinking of getting a SCX10 II kit & this would be a great motor for it thanks for sharing happy bashing bro.

During this time of coronavirus. I been loving your videos.

I definitely agree 💯

Right now my 10.2 has a 16 turn crawlmaster 540. Was thinking about going to a 20 turn, but maybe I'll try the other way. As always, cool vid.

Thanks John for all of your videos. I am learning so much being new to the hobby. I can actually easily tolerate listening to you video after video...haha.

look really nice

Great video. Informative and funny! I prefer a brushless setup myself on 3S. Not to many rocks where I am but lots of dirt hills where i need to clear the tyres :)

Nice job.

U crack me up john!

I like your style

Lol! Awesome video brother!!👍😎👍

Dude your vid editing and commentary make me want to buy crawlmaster!!!

in my TRX-4 I'm running a 35T motor on 3S I think it's perfect, although it's a scale crawler but with the 2-speed-gear it's just what I want

Def a good set up, a better steering servo helps a bit. I think with a smaller or more front mounted battery you can do bigger obstacles. Myself with the Blazer i can say the bumpers are sorta limiting factors for some stuff. Otherwise its a great Scale Crawler.

RC crawling with Bob Ross lol. I’m slowly becoming a customer. Usually I’d just go with Hobbywing but they don’t have what I’m after. I’m building a mega truck with a brushless system. I’ve got a 4370 in an SCX10 and that’s peppy, but I want more.

Was anyone else thinking "Here's Johnny!" at the end of the video? lol Think you may have convinced me to give 3S a go again, I tried it once before but always preferred the convenience of 2S as that's what I run in my race cars meaning I can share lipo's.

go 3s, you won't regret it!

I have a stock trx4 chassis kit that I want to regear to crawl slower on the 1st gear. I am unsure on if I should be looking to increase or decrease the pinor gear to slow down the wheel speed. I am also unclear on if decreasing wheel speed will put more stress on the components. Any help would be appreciated.

My favorite neighbor dog...LOL SLAPPING the like button NOW...

Hi John, I have a Quickrun 1080 for my crawler (emo at4) running a 3s lipo with the stock 35t motor. It's fun overall, but sometimes I want more speed for trail running just to get out of the slow crawling mind set, can you recommend a motor for this ESC that can provide more running speed? Thanks

So I have a Losi Nightcrawler SE. It comes stock with a 35T brushed motor. I like the function on the remote of the three speeds, and I only run a 2s battery, which I will change today, to a 3s. If I were to switch motors as well, which one would you recommend? Thanks in advance for your advice and great products.

I have a temper gen 2, and I know it's small but I want to achieve the same thing, the setup is perfect for rock bouncing and crawling, so what do you suggest cause I am new to this

I have a Axial Bomber with stock axial esc with a axial 20t love the wheel speed on 3s 2s is to slow but i keep burning up motors and escs on 3s.mostly used on trail and bashing The bomber weighs in at 8.5 pounds What esc and motor combo do you recommend thank you

Hi! Spring is here, my Capra kit to! Sorry for my writhing, i’m french canadian... I’m new in crawling and there is so much to learn. I’ve decided to try your Crawlmaster sport 16t to match axial specs... Thinking after a bunch of readings to go with a 11t pinion to get a little bit more boost like you said! But now that i’ve seen this video, i’m thinking to go further... Whats the boost difference beetween the sport 16t and the pro 16t? Any other advice for a newbie like me? By the way, i’m a big fan of your videos. Top notch informations. You rock! Thank’s!

I just bought a wendingo kit and I want a brushed setup with good wheel speed but can crawl as well, I was thinking a 21t trail master sport on 2s with a 1080 hobbywing esc. I’ve been out of the hobby a while what do you think? Would the 13t work for me and not overheat?

I need help knowing what will be good in my trx4bronco bronco. I would like speed but crawl as well. Which is better brushless or brushed? Thanks brother

I've got an everest 10 and am looking to upgrade my motor for something with a little more wheel speed but still able to crawl. What motor would you recommend?

I just picked up the scx10 ii raw builders kit and also picked up a Tekin BXR esc. I like the low, low crawl speed and high end wheel speed of your wraith and want the same. Are you running the BXR also? Which motor is this and how much is it? Trying to stay on a budget. Thanks in advance!

I've got the gladiator with the stock 35T motor still in. But I have your 10T & 21T motors on standby. Help me decide which to install. Also, I still have the stock ESC(which is nice) in, with the hobbywing 1080 on standby as well. What would y'all do? Thanks

What if we put larger wheels,any effect? How we balance /tune back the right speed?

What should I pair with a Holmes Hobby Trail Master T21 ...? 3s or....

Going to be building a capra soon you think the 1800kv revolver v2 is a good choice?

What would you recommend for redcat gen 7 pro

I know a lesser human that runs a brushless 4s setup on a TRX4, god dam crawling got so popular that the bashers tell us how to set up our trucks Let’s talk gates and control and scale, I’ve been competitive rc crawling since we had to build our crawlers because there were none on the market. I can bump anything with a brushed 35t for comp crawling I’m running 2 75turn RC4WD motors on a bullyii. I win comps a lot brushed 2s This seems to be a ploy to pull the civilized crawler and scale model builder down the the level of a basher. Let’s put way more power and break everything so I constantly have to funnel money into the industry. Have at it bashing a stock wraith most of us have $200 hardbody’s, scale accessories and gates to worry about KZread old comp crawler videos. We’ve been going backwards courses are easier as the popularity increases

I agree fully, ive been crawling since 2002 and started going to USRCCA nats and hosting missouri events in 2005. I still have my TLT axled bender customs rig. For comp use the sweet spot is between 1500 and 1800kv on 3s IMO, or 35t to 27t speeds. I'm only running a 16t Crawlmaster in this rig, about like a 30t. It's just barely enough speed to bump, but not enough to get me in trouble. I'm a big part of the fast trail rig push though, the 3500 Puller pro got a lot of engineering time to be smooth starting yet have obnoxious wheelspeed. I developed it specifically for the wraith rock racer platform.

Does the 27t 550 crawl master have more wheel speed than a regular 35t that comes with axial?

What's turn i can use in motor 540 for a crawler that use 2s lipo

I hv a trx4 sport with jconcepts goldenyears on it..i need more speed ..whats your recommendation

Swapping the camera angles and into a tight close up was cracking me up!

I must find myself a new motor for gmade buffalo. My rc was crazy fun with 27t 540 goolrc and 3s battery. But motor was smelly and hot. I'm thinking about going 5-pole 550 13t or 14t. I'm not sure what motor I need to get similar top speed without the excessive heat build up. Gmade gs02f has 2speed transmission.

Hi broo... Nice video. May i ask and please ur the best suggest setup for my axial wraith combo motor 27T stock with HB1080 esc. For the best smooth anf bashing crawler... Please...

How could a get a test motor for my wraith?

How many turns is on that motor?

Brushless brushless brushless. You offer low speed control and crazy wheel speed with you pullers. Plus who doesn’t like ripping across open ground to the next trail?

So what is the best motor for wheel speed plus slow crawl? Really like to watch your show nice info

Just dived into this recently. Smallest pinion (9t) and a 13t 550 crawlmaster or 27t trailmaster 550 is the fastest combo you can use. Any faster and the motor will start stalling and smoke. This recommendation may not transfer to other brands, you might need to use even higher turns to prevent stalling.

@@HolmesHobbies I seen your video with the 13t crawl master. I’ve been running this combo for a few months now, I even threw the stock pinion in and aslong as you don’t run it wide open more than 10 or 15minutes it runs good and fast without getting hot. The 9t pinion is great for crawling. You’ve definitely got a forever customer your motor is the best brushed motor I’ve ever owned!

Hi holmes, i would like to ask... Let's say i have 2 setup : 1000kv with 40:1 gear ratio 2000kv with 80:1 gear ratio Both are the same size motors, just different kv Esc hobbywing axe, 5200 mAh 35C 3S batter, and use in same kit, given the gear ratio the speed is about the same right? What i wanna ask Which one has more torque? Which one is more efficient? Which one has more runtime?

@HolmesHobbies

2 жыл бұрын

Faster motor with more geardown will have more torque, generally run more efficient, but might have lower runtime if you use the extra torque. The faster motor itself will also pull more amps and be capable of more torque, and when combined with the geardown you could get 4x the torque at the wheel if needed. Also, more geardown gives better drag brake and rpm control while hitting an object or load.
