Built To Perfection - Features Break-down On The Holmes Hobbies Magnum Brushed Motor 

I know Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.

@Travis Max Instablaster =)

@Phillip Darwin i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

@Phillip Darwin It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much, you really help me out !

@Travis Max glad I could help =)

How much does the ESC change the 'feel'? You have worked your way through all the Motors; did you do the same with the Controllers?

I don't do comps so I run sensored brushless... wont wear out, has excellent efficiency, smooth startup, tons of rpm, and amazing torque and power characteristics... 2700kv, 14.8v, 11t pinion gets my carpra to nearly 15mph yet can crawl oh so slow. 3500kv, 11.1v, 11t pinion in my trx6, or the puller pro r 4100kv on 3s, has it crawling very slow but with excellent speed. 5ah pack on the trx lasts 1 to 1.5 hours while the 1300mah 4s packs on the capra last 45 minutes. . If I comped I'd run a motor specific to the course... ie, high traction = slow crawler with soft suspension and low traction = a lotta wheel speed and stiff suspension to bounce over obstacles.

@@RTmadnesstoo the esc is very important. you'll want something with a programmable throttle curve to make slower crawling even more controllable. It's throttle resolution and curve can be the difference between the smoothest startup and the worst, and can make the most smooth motor feel like the crappiest. You need quality esc and motor.

@@KTMcaptain is your sensor less set up water proof?

@@Djkommode all my motors are water proof. The puller pro “R” models require servicing after submersion though.

Why on gods green earth would you put a "Crawler" specific motor, in a drift car? I would recommend you learning a hell of a lot more before making a motor purchase ... you need to be looking at a brushless motor, not a brushed ...

I got the 16T on order, can't wait to get it installed. Hopefully, it comes with the screwdriver ;-)

Joseph Ayala Haha very good! Ya I could use a small pocket driver like that:) So being relatively new to the hobby, question for you? How did you decide on the 16T? I had a tough time choosing.

@@ravensdalerc For sure, it was hard figuring out which to get. I'm still not sure I made the right choice. I ended up using the motor recommendations on the website. I had to cross reference a bit for the Axial Capra, because I wanted something a bit slower. Then I heard John say he liked the 16T in one of his previous vids and I was sold. Lol

Come on man. Holmes is a proper name and should be Capitalized ..... and Spelled Correctly.

@@RTmadnesstoo I'm legally blind and I was using voice to text.

I wouldn't use a revolver in a capra... too much crud gets up into the electronics section between the battery tray and the skid. Also, the capra is geared too tall without using an aftermarket transmission. I'm running the lowest gearing, 11t pinion, and it has a ton of wheel speed. Honestly though, the capra is excellent with some wheel speed and power. Mine runs 14mph on 4s with a 2700kv puller pro standard and 11t pinion. When I do strait high traction crawling I put in a 3s pack, but I use the power adjustment setting on my mamba x to adjust my power delivery depending on the situation which means on 4s I can go anywhere from 3mph to 14mph topped out and the esc scales the throttle with the adjustment so on the lowest setting I get 1.5mph at half throttle vs 7mph when set to max power at half throttle. . best mod, by far, for the capra is 4 wheel steering. I run this thing non stop on opposing steering for tighter steering and it feels amazing. I hate using it in 2 wheel steer mode. . Funny thing is I get more compliments and awes with my capra than I do with my erevo blasting down the volley ball courts at 50mph.

@@KTMcaptain Thanks for the tip. I haven't got the capper kit yet Should be here in the next few days so I don't know the layout of it very well. Yes I've seen pictures online but I have vision issues so nothing is very clear to me. Right now I just have a 5:40 crawl master to throw in. (Coming with the kit from Amain.) What would you recommend for a brushless power system? I do like low speed control but like more wheel speed than most people for my crawlers. I like the stock gearing and 3slot 21t torque master expert on my two TRX4 sports for reference.

BLIND J the Capra is definitely fun with wheel speed which is why I think axial geared it so high from the factory with a 14t pinion. I run an 11t on a 2700kv puller pro. I think it’s nearly perfect. It can crawl smooth and slow, and is very close to the maximum speed I’d want to go with the Capra. . I drive mine like a bomber half the time and it’s great. Just be careful of the battery compartment size. It’s small. . I’ve ran this setup on 6s and it’s too fast with too much power for the chassis. But it’s amazing. . I’m partial to Holmes’s puller pros, I have the 3500kv and 2700kv standard and 4100kv pro R, and I like to use castle X speed controllers because of the on the fly adjustments. On my 2 speed trx6 I use rock race mode and on the Capra I adjust power via the radio. . I’ve never tried using brushed outside the stock titan 21t, but I do know the puller pros are very smooth to start and have torque for days.

👀

motors will always show as short circuit to a meter. They are very low resistance and just look like some wire connected to itself.

11 pounds! wtf... that's how much my erevo weights... my trx6 isn't even that heavy.

Yeah, a way to squeak out more rpm when the torque isn't needed! But in crawling we just wind em slower.

Kind of depends on what experience you want. All out power and wheel speed, brushless is the way to go. But if you’re looking for the fine tuned feel and control, brushed is the way to go. Personally since I love slower technical crawling lines, I prefer the crawlmaster brushed line.

@@chevyon37s thanks! I just ordered a VS4-10 and I would like to make it as smooth and technically capable as I can... I don't intend to just "send it" with this build. Much appreciated!

What esc do you pair it with .?

@@jrsantoyo9028 it's paired with the hobby wing 1080 works perfectly with it

@@rileykairc dude I'm ready to get the stubby. But was wondering What esc. Because I have a mamba x and a micro mamba pairs with their sensored brushless castle motors. But these are brushd so no 3rd wire. So I was curious. So that 1080 is a good match. Ima get it. Thank you bro

@@jrsantoyo9028 I think it's a very good match and it's so quiet to which is perfect for me I hate noisy motor ESC combos ,the 1080works really well with this motor and does what I need it to ,I now have 6 crawl master pros in my crawlers with 1080 ESC paired with them I also have the magnum,and little Tugger to and they both have 1080 s to

The 55t sells about 100 times slower than 35t. Who uses 80t?

@@johnrobholmes tamiya 1/14 trucks, 80t on 3s is becoming the more common set up over the old 55t on 7.2v nimh/2s

No.. that would be an ENGINE. and I hate to break it to you, but a brushless motor has far more power and torque than a nitro engine.

@@TangoOne I don't care about power and torque if the car is dead and boring.
