Motor Test Holmes Hobbies Vs Traxxas Titan 

Those Holmes motors are great and honestly with less fan holes there’s less chances of getting sand in it

Could definitely hear the difference in strain on the motor

Holmes has excellent customer service too! It was so fast and friendly I felt weird, like I time traveled.

Finally killed my Titan motor in my TRX4 Bronco after 2 years and replaced with the Holmes 21T 550, no issues thus far. I do run the 9 tooth pinion gear and the Hobbywing 1080 ESC too.

I run the HH 27t 550. Much better low range crawling and still plenty of speed in high range in a TRX4 stock gearing.

seem stronger and quieter? i like me some of that...is it a bit faster?

My Mercedes G500 TRX-4 had it's final run with it's original motor today... Lasted 15 metres before white smoke started billowing out from underneath... That engine made around 3,900km's within the past 16 months, it did well and has now earned its rest. Now I need a new engine...

Thanx for the great video!!! My Bronco just didn't agree with running in the snow yesterday, so I've been exploring my options on new motors. After seeing numerous videos, Holmes Hobbies is the way I'm going to go. Again Thank You!!!

My Titan just died, so I just ordered the trail master. I can’t wait to get it.

Awesome video excellent comparison seams like a great motor and for the price enough said.

HH.. slightly faster, and quieter. Need to devise a way to test the torque difference. Like that you are offering up these comparison videos, I was commenting earlier on another channel about people needing to do research before they outright call something junk.

I really like holmes motor I run a 27t in my gen7 pro and it made a world of difference, now I need to get the holmes esc, I would to see what this holmes hold is all about

I wish you showed us some speed test

That was the motor I planned to put in but my esc went first. At that point I just went with the Mamba X/2280kv combo.

I've been waiting for this comparison. I do have a Mamba X in my TRX4 but I still run the stock brushed motor. I was considering "upgrading" to the Holmes 550 Sport but I see there's no need to in my case. As always, great video!!👍

I have the same Holmes motor in my TRX4 and have noticed a Huge difference. I run full speed and the Holmes has more torque and speed over the Titan. It also seems to have alot less hesitation.

Great video no music and the motor in my TRX4 is still good but I blew out the two brushed motors in my E Revo so I will give this one a try I am impressed with the bearing in the front of the motor I wonder what the top speed on the TRX4 is with this motor compared to the stock one

Ive had my trx4 Bronco going on 4 months now and the titan is still running strong. I cant stay out of water and i run it hard on 3s everytime. I do run clean water threw it after and oil the rear bushing but i can see some rust inside. Its going strong and when i does go i have the trailmaster waiting to go in. Good video and i like the little extra torque this motor provides! I have the 540 version in my custom trail truck redcat everest 10 and its far better then the rc4wd 35T motor i killed. Plus John seems like a good dude so always like supporting guys like him over the big companies! It will be getting a brushless system eventually and it will be an esc that can run brushed to like the mamba. I love the feel of the brushed motors but i haven't had a crawler specific brushless system me so maybe I like that more. Which do you prefer in your trx4 and other crawlers for that matter?

Thank You I am going to get a order a Holmes Hobbies motor now because my Traxxas just quit on me I thought it was my battery or esc nope motor is shot.

Anyone still considering holmes hobby in 2021? Or people just moved to brushless system already

Hobby Holmes easily climbs at same speed, you have suspension dialed in , spur gear ? Tire combo?

Nice budget tipp!

I got the mamba x with stock Titan motor I run it on 4s sometimes. Still going strong

Very cool comparison brotha! 👍👍👊👊📹📹

Titan 21T vs Crawlmaster sport! I’m debating.

Hey man I seen you put the trail master in a gen 7 Redcat, do you happen to know if the crawlmaster expert 540 13T would also mount and would that be a good choice for crawling or do you have a better recommendation in that price range that’ll mount on a gen 7? Thanks in advance!

Looking to run a crawl master 12t 550 with 1080. Will this be OK in my scx10 111 Gladiator?

How do you think the Mamba x performs with a brushed motor? Is it good and as smooth? I was thinking of doing that but I wanted to see how it would perform or get someone opinion first. Loved the video!

what is the esc?

Hey Exo, what did you use for bullet connectors to wire up the Holmes hobbies motor?

Do you flip the wires to run reverse? Sorry new to the game

He went faster with the aftermarket motor. What a diffrence

👍

what temps like when running 2nd gear full speed for a while ? i running 3s stock motor and it gets warm... i have Not had any problem with the stock traxxas motor.

Great video.

I just picked up a stampede and rustler, would you recommend this brand of motor as replacent once titans die?

what about the top speed,dose hh hobby,s faster?or same speed but less heat?Looking to upgrade the trx4 with the trail mastet 550 21t.

Will it fit a gen 7

That's interesting you set end points of 30% forward and 50% reverse. What was the reasoning behind this rather than using the full 100%?

Can you do a top speed compair? If you still have this?

Pinion?

biggest difference is better drag brake force

The traxxas stock esc can handle upto how many turn motors??

platery gearbox ?

On 2s or 3s?

No discernable difference.
