Trevor McQuattVerified owneron Holmes Hobbies CrawlMaster Sport 550 Brushed Electric Motor (12T)

Very smooth and lots of torque, enough wheel speed as well on stock gearing of a TRX4 Sport, paired with hobbywing 1080, very happy for the price point.

Replaced the stock Traxxas motors and escs in my boys’ 2 TRX4 Sports with 2 of these motors paired with Hobbywing 1080 escs. With a few simple esc settings these motors have great low speed control, more than enough torque, and just the right wheel speed. Can’t be beat for a $20 budget motor.

What reviewers say

Reviewers consistently rate the CrawlMaster Sport 550 12T brushed motor 5 out of 5. Owners describe good low-speed control, smooth running, strong torque and adequate wheel speed, particularly on stock TRX4 Sport gearing paired with Hobbywing 1080 ESCs. Several reviewers highlight the low price as a strong point. One reviewer notes that a few simple ESC setting adjustments were needed to get the best low-speed control. No reviewers report problems with the motor, and no disagreements appear across the three reviews. The sample is small, so the findings reflect only these owners.

  • + Good low-speed control
  • + Smooth running with strong torque
  • + Adequate wheel speed on stock TRX4 Sport gearing
  • + Low price
  • − Some ESC setting adjustment needed for best low-speed control
