Super little motor, and the pinion side bearing is a great touch! Installed in a TRX-4 Sport with kit gearing and paired with a HW 1080. On 3S the 35-turn is an amazing crawl/trail speed, with the low speed crawl being very good and the top speed right on a TRX-4 2-speed in 2nd on 2S. All the versatility yet with the simplicity of single-speed.

It's not the fastest motor for obvious reasons, but for a 540 can it packs a punch. Perfect for a TrailFinder 2 or SCX10.

Great motor for the price. Hard to go wrong with HH and AMain, best customer service out there.

What reviewers say

Four verified owners rate the Holmes Hobbies TrailMaster Sport 540 Brushed Motor (35T) 5/5. Reviewers describe it as reliable, well-fitting and good value for a 540 brushed motor. One owner using it in a TRX-4 Sport on 3S reports strong low-speed crawl and trail performance with a top speed comparable to a 2-speed transmission in second gear on 2S. Another notes it is not the fastest motor but delivers good punch for its class, and suggests it suits a TrailFinder 2 or SCX10. One reviewer praises the pinion-side bearing and another praises the brand's customer service. No disagreements or recurring problems are reported. The sample is small.
