RC4WD Z-E0004 540 Crawler Brushed Motor 45T

I'm using this in the Lego technic set 42125 on a 2s battery. Good torque, smooth and not too fast causing plastic parts to melt as long as they're lubricated.

put a pair of these in my 1/8 Mad Tork crawler, near twice as fast as stock and just as strong. still no problems with low end slow power and control with the stock gears, and my buddies who also run torks, are all jelly over them cause i am so much faster. considering a pair of the 35 turn version of this motor for the next upgrage, but past experience tell sme, it might be just a bit too much.I also use one of these motors in my mad cliff 1/10 scale crawler, highly recomended, its the perfect upgrade motor for that truck with stock gearing. for teh record, the 35 turn modle of this motor, was too much for the Cliff, lost the low and slow ability with stock gear.

I should have done my research. These motors would do well in track or construction vehicles, maybe moa crawlers.But a 5 slot motor is much smoother and controllable even in the lower turn higher rpm version.I had ordered a 35t and a 45t and wound up using the 35 in my son's everest 10. Gave it a little more pep but still controllable for a 4yr old.

These are good little crawler motors for the money. I replaced the 27 turn Axial with this one for slower top end and more grunt. It's running on 2S and 3S batteries with stock Deadbolt SCX10 ESC with a bit of extra waterproofing on servo & receiver. It does seem to have issues making brush contact a bit more than stock motor in muddy water. However it gets abused a bit. I dunk Deadbolt with motor running in fresh water or pour water into motor to clean it out. This doesn't hurt motor to be in water, just be sure ESC servo and receiver are all waterproof/resistant. Youtube videos on RC waterproofing will tell you everything you need.

Good motor for money

I'm building a 1/10 scale Russian Tank and needed two motors to drive it. These should do the job and were economical. It's not a race car so these should do the job.

I wanted a motor with low end grunt and got just what I wanted. Originally I was running a brushless system but I switched to brushed because they are so much cheaper and easier to use. Yeah, it's not as precise as a $300 brushless system but, when it goes up in smoke, I'm only out $30-$50 for a motor and speed controller and I get all the adjustability I need for crawling with friends.Great investment. Just gear for what you are doing.

I bought two of these motors to replace the 70 turn motors on my Mad Torque which made it painfully slow. Now it has better speed and still plenty of torque. Well worth the price and shipped quickly. This user has no complaints and recommends these motors.

Sehr kraftvoll, gute Qualität, durch Pfützen fahren stellt auch kein Problem dar!
