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

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.

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!

@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!

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.

Definitely keep the 540M, far as KV oh 1800kv to 1900kv. Maybe do a 2050kv

@SWAYIN66 5 ай бұрын

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.

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

@davekershaw184 5 ай бұрын

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 !

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

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.
