The reason the videos with no body do so well is because we just all wanna see what’s in your truck
Yesss make that 540m a permanent option!!! Such a great mix of light weight and power. Hands down my favorite motor. I personally love the 1800-2300kv range, maybe offer down to 1400kv or so as well.
Background noise isn't bad at all with the fans, basically just like white noise, doesn't bother me at all, but wasn't bothered before
And after all of your 3d printer videos I finally got one!
nice! have fun!
@HolmesHobbies I'm not computer savvy by any means. If it weren't for a few esc programs I'd likely never touch one lol. It'll be a learning curve for sure!
Purple FTW.
To avoid permanently soldering the motor wires to the esc, I mounted the esc to the crossmember behind the tranny. Then the battery on the l/h skid. The weight is still a respectable 58/42 split front to back with an overall 5.3lbs without the battery. This thing out-crawls my SCX10 Pro, but they are very, very close in capabilities. Btw, love the Team Spec 540 1800kv, and crawl-master V3 esc!
Purple is awesome
I'm a sucker for purple anodized stuff because of MTBs and RCs, gold too because of my ice hockey travel teams days as a kid... 💜
1600-1800kv is great. These being a permanent stock motor is a wonderful idea. And Purple everything!!!!!
lol, I was just thinking he should really do the stubby kit with this and you go and let us know how impatient you were Ease this in like a gentleman?? Did I really hear that?? hahahhaha epic! I have a REVOLVER 540 M 2023 TEAM SPEC 2250KV and v3 waiting for my vrd build. Oh and the background noise is a non issue for me personally. Thanks for the vid John.
hahaha, yep! glad u enjoyed
The fans sound like traffic in a NY apartment! Only when your not talking! Keep talking, John!!! 😂😂😂
hahaha, yep!
Love purple it's GCRC team colours. And please show the soldering ❤
I know when I do mine I'm definitely going to use your electronics and motor man I really just have it jumped into the 10th scale yet because of my job and being a single parent right now is pretty damn hard I definitely love the 24th and
Powah!!!!
Thanks!
It,s looking good John
Long live the Beaver! 🤣
NO PURPLE!! Gold looks soo much better with Carbon. Nice video as usual
Thanks 👍
Love the 2250 revolver m
wow, i love those discontinued wheels
I dropped to a 10 tooth pinnion no rub on the skid
That’s exactly what I threw in my vrd with the stubby kit and love it the new crawlmaster v3 is my new favorite set up with the purple team spec 1800kv thanks John and I also made sure I went threw the homes hobbies site to help in the am32 project I hope let’s keep getting better 😊❤
John, I sent in My "resume" for the team driver stuff the other day. I'm just curious if I will hear anything back either way.
Josh said on Vanquish Products Live yesterday that he thought 1800 KV was perfect with this gearing:
H8 the fans. Love lip Smackers
Same motor on my carbon. Works amazing.
Did you use the 56t spur? I dropped to the 52t on mine to clear the skid.
I will be placing my order tomorrow!!! I’ll take two please sir!!!! One for my vrd carbon one for my new stance or maybe drop in my fordyce with rock pirates purple chassis and purple KMCS I believe that I got from wheels of fortune!! Chefs kiss!!!!!
Has anyone else been addicted to Carbon Fibre
no loctite?? lovve the silver thumb but lill distracting on close shots
Why do you have one nail painted?
Yep let's see a soldering video
Id love one around 2200 kv. I've got the 1800 and I love it. But just a little more wheel speed is all you need.
I’m running a 10tooth with the 2500. On 3 and 4 s
Direct solder
u know it!
@@HolmesHobbies my man
I have the 1800kv 540M and CM v2 going in my Carbon, if I ever get around to building it.
What esc do u prefer with this motor?? Appreciate all you do Mr Holmes!!!!
Crawlmaster v3
@@HolmesHobbies thank u sir
Will there be anymore 1800KV Team Spec available?
Let us know if the motor rubs on the skid plate. I ended up needing a spacer because I could see wear lines on the outside of the motor.
540M huh! 👍🏻I’d like a low enough KV to run with 4S, 2300KV is a nice sweet spot for sure and you don’t have a 2300 yet.
We have 2250
Oh that’s right you just put those out at Xmas! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻@@HolmesHobbies
Try some J Concepts “Megalithic” tires 🛞
I bought this motor / esc combo for my vrd but the new kv motor. What order do I have the wires when I’m plugging them into esc ? This is my first hh motor
You should put a Subaru body on it lol
Definitely keep the 540M, far as KV oh 1800kv to 1900kv. Maybe do a 2050kv
heya John! do enjoy the fan noise in the background for the quiet times, i do have a quick couple questions. does motor wire and esc wire length affect heat or operation of the esc? and can i run a 2000kv 380 size motor on 4s on your crawl master mini v3 ? thanks for putting out great videos i always seem to learn something watching them, like the spur gear adjustment tip thanks again !
Wire length isn't much of a concern
If a "specific" person has a purple stubby outrunner motor from your collection and has exploded 2 furitek 80a esc's both the black thingy that sticks out between motorwires exploded. The motor is fine, but is the furitek not so good or not good with your motor? Asking for a "friend"
Ps. The fan is hearable but not interfering for me
What is the ESC ? Did I miss that part?
Crawlmaster v3
Hey whats with the silver thumb nail.....🙂
ya why the painted nail
i would love something around 2500kv on 4s. After running the 2250 on 4s for a while now with the v3 i am not sure i could make that work with this esc though.
How’s the v3 handling the higher kv so far
The v3 handles the team 2250 perfectly on 4s. It has never got to warm to touch. @@RecklesskrawlerRCdrewlandau
1400kv for that size
1800kv please
Why not a 2300 with 12 tooth pinion??? You always say power up gear down!!!!!! Do i have a point or am i wrong??
Fan is maybe 20% too loud...
not that big a deal
seems like your mics have an autogain... when you're quite the fans get much louder.
they do, looking into new lav mic options...
Fan noise to loud, distracting. Your audio quality is good!
it is distracting, my cameraman says the same!
Try a G Speed Lilly body or Proline Coyote body
Anyone now what VRD stands for?
