Holmes Hobbies TORQUEMASTER MINI - The Best Brushed Motor Upgrade For The TRX4M?! Run & Review! 

Absolutely!

Sounds like a good plan.

That's exactly what I did. Lol got me a TRX4M & spent $500 on it, something my father was disappointed on....🤦🏼‍♂️😅 My rig right? Can do what I want. Lol

@@RCCrawlerz209 I’ve spent an unhealthy amount on tiny trucks. My folks still think I’m in the $400 all in range…

My parents aren’t to thrilled about how much I have in my little trucks

😂😂

Dude. A furitek setup is like $150 and that’s NOT including the new radio and a receiver needed. I don’t think most people playing with 1/18 scale crawlers are looking spend that kind of money. Meanwhile, this motor is $16…

It’s a very smooth motor. I’m really happy with it

I may have heard differently but I didn’t hear him say that higher turns was faster? He said that the 66 was faster than the stock 88 turn which is true.

I thought I said lower turn was faster. If not, that’s my mistake

You said twice that higher turns are slower and more torque and that lower turns are faster

Injora

At least the crawler gears but I think Traxxas has metal stock gears

@@christianlombardo8566 thx for the info!

Yes, Meus racing makes stock ratio steel gears

I love the tires! They hooked up incredibly well on the course. I typically like bigger tires, but these seem to look, and work extremely well on the Bronco.

Thanks! The bumper is the Injora tubular steel bumper. amzn.to/3tep65J

Yeah, John started doing 24 stuff when it became obvious these small scale Crawlers weren't going anywhere anytime soon....lol....so, we've had HH motors available to us for a while but because it wasn't advertised nobody knows....well, very few people know...

The higher the turn number, the slower the motor. So, in theory, they also give you a smoother slow crawl. However, nothing will come close to a brushless set up. However, I never see anyone mentioning that adding magnets on the OUTSIDE of the can will also slow it down and boost the torque numbers. Back in the day, when all these custom motor builders didn't exist and we couldn't alter motor timing, we used to add rare earth magnets to the outside of the motor can (the stock magnets will pull them into alignment.) And, like I said, the extra magnets help slow down the motor and boost torque. Effectively just like re-timing today's modern motors that allow timing adjustments. We also used to piggy-back op-amps onto the ones inside the speed controller.. Adding an Op-Amp on top of the stock ones (soldered to the pins on the stock one) provides more Amps to the motor. However it doesn't slow it down...it actually speeds it up AND boosts torque numbers....but, modern esc's don't employ Op-Amps like they did in the past. I'm not talking about the old school mechanical, servo driven esc's. The esc's I'm talking about were the original "solid state" pre-modern esc's we have today....however, I have soldered MOSFET's across the terminals of the motor (where youd usually find a ceramic capacitor) and it significantly boosted power and torque without speeding up the motor... All just ideas that we used to use...if you choose to try any of these, don't quote me on it....use under your own responsibility. If it were me, and I wanted to try any or all of these I'd most likely try them on old pieces that were destined for the trash anyway. Ultimately, stock is boring. Just have fun! And, always always always, make it custom... and share ideas.... -Big Mountain Customs-

I ran the stock 87t on crawler gears for a while when the M first came out. It did great!

Thanks! It would be fast. Much faster than the 48t and noticeably faster than the stock motor I imagine.

For me it’s perfect with the low gears. It’s very slow though.

Yes, you got it

@@CapeCrawlers cool.

I don’t believe it is. There’s nothing on the wetbsite saying it is waterproof

@@CapeCrawlers Yea I see that now. Thank you!

It’s usually around 10 business days

@@CapeCrawlers Thank you!
