Very cool. I saw this on Amazon and figured I better check it. Half the price of furitek stuff and keep stock controller. Way cool. Brass is nice but I put lead stick on wheel weights inside my tires. (Trim to fit)Glue them right to the beadlock ring. Keeps it planted. Thanks for the review!
I finally got this motor in my scx24... and I love it! With regard to ridiculous power there are 2 basic options: The HH Revolver, and the 370. The Revolver is like a Ferrari, and the 370 like a muscle car (I know, they're crawlers). So this 370 has awesome modulation in the scx24, and also speed. Im using the Hot Racing 32T aluminum spur that comes with an 8 or 9 tooth pinion, and a 370 Dynamite motor. Being at .5mod, the gears though less teeth, are about the same size as stock. But with those bigger teeth... it has a distinct growl to it! Work to lower your CG and buy some "Low and Heavy" upgrades, bcuz it sits a bit high. *** also try to get out of the bad habit of a "punchy finger", see that all over the place, with this power you will brake parts. Its not a style, its bad driving. *** I love it! My favorite upgrade yet! Thank you, I'll keep watching for your upgrades my friend!
The best I have done with a completely stock model is 51 degrees. I use an ironing board with its standard cloth cover to test. I also use a "Clinometer" app on my phone. I will make some mods and retest it as we go. Weight distribution is 53% front and 47% rear. Stock.
@@raquaro1 It can get more with extra weight ive added. Its really easy to make this little guy do stuff that others have a real hard time achieving. Good job Axial😊
They defdinetlynhelp a lot, its about 27g per wheel. On this video I had mounted the front shocks on the frame accidentally trying to hurry and mis the rain thats why it was sitting a bit higher in the feont. Had the shocks been on the right possition it may have looked even better :)
@@Gamyrc I have a few sets of the weights from older rigs and a set of the new overweights as well. I normally prefer DIY weights, but these are very very nice.
@@Spoo76 Yeah, they just look super nice. I had lead weights which were heavier but the machining on these makes up for the lack of weight compared ro those.
Great video! Thanks! Just got into scx24. Reading the comments and I could use a little help. Can I use the stock ring? Also what size (part numbers) is the pinion? I’ll figure out later what people are talking about for grinding the shaft! Thanks in advance.
Things have changed a lot since this video. Now Furitek offers a motor and esc option that is much better than this one and they offer pinion and spur to match it👍. furitek.com/collections/rock-crawler/products/furitek-teko-brushless-combo-for-scx24-without-case
Just getting on board with these babies. Do you have any specs for the 370 motors? Thanks for the video. Will be ordering some of those mount for sure.
Look around my Shapeways store first. I have many other options for motors that are lower center of gravity than this one so if you are looking for better crawling they may be a better choice. This one us mainly for brute strength😉.
That's an awesome motor conversion. It sucks I had one of them spur pass motor plates but I didn't plan on doing a brushless conversion so I traded it for some double barrel shocks along with a few other things and after seeing your video I wish I would have kept that motor plate because I could have done the same thing I even could have ran a brushless motor I have that's a different type it doesn't spin on the outside I never thought that it will work on that mount until I seen your video. Thanks for the good idea and I just subscribed to your channel I have a channel called MV Nichols only have a subscriber so far cuz I just started.lol but I could use some help if you don't mind subscribing or checking it out please thank you
Look closely, I had placed the front shocks in the wrong location in this video causing it to have a "lifted" look in the front. Didnt realize until after I recorded.
They want to save money and keep from making too strong of a vehicle that would self destroy if put in some young kids hands I bet. The tiny stock wont break anything although it will burnup super quick😂
Because it is entirely unnecessary and likely makes crawling performance worse. My stock SCX24 would do 49 degrees incline and 37 degrees side slope. That is measured with a carpeted board and actual angle meter (not a cheesy phone app).
I now need to order my motor, but I'm seeing variations. What turn motor should i get, if you were to guess? I like the stock speed of the scx24, no slower, because this one will be a trail/crawler, somewhat in between crawler and trail. Thanks for the video, I look forward to more creations!
@@Gamyrc I'm going with the single 370. Right now it's got two of the stock motors. It's got enough power, but not enough for what I want to do with it, but also I don't want to be super slow. What im not sure about, is the size of pinion, and how many turn motor to choose. Thanks again for the info.
Any more info on this motor plate install? Looking to do the revolver 380 swap but I can’t find any good pics of how to set up the gearing.. does this add a center gear between the motor and original spur gear? The one vid I found the guy skipped through most of it. Ready to order parts just wanna make sure I get everything I need before I start the swap. Thanks in advance!
Do you offer the motor mount for the outrunner motor on another site besides Shapeways? Their wait time is crazy and I want to install the Holmes hobbies Revolver in my scx24. Thanks
All the motor plate variations are on my Shapeways store. Its a simple moddification. All you need to provide after getting the plate is the motor and pinion and your set.
How are you fitting a 59t spur? Even the Losi hot racing 57t spur is way tight against the transmission output after grinding the shaft down with a Dremel on mine. 59 was obviously worse which is why I even bothered with 57t, but it's still rubbing the output shaft
Its the same as with the Losi output shaft. Just spin the shaft on a drill and use a small file to slowly take a way. It takes a couple if minutes and your good :)
@@Gamyrc my Losi didn't need much to fit the 59t , but I removed quite a bit more on the SCX and even the 57t still rubs. I have a different spur on it now, but may try again
@@Spoo76 Thats weird, I barely took any out of mine. The 58 was perfect out if factory and I did have ro take a bit off with 59. Wonder if they had different shafts🤔
In 1:1 4x4s, you air down for more traction. Kinda like running softer foams in 1:10 scale trucks. The compound on the SCX24 Nitto tire is a little to hard for how light it is.
Lol, yes indeed. If you look closely the font shocks are in the wrong location making the front higher. It was due to me putting it together in a hurry to make the video and not realizing I used the wrong holes. The idea was to use stock shock locations to show how different the hill climb would be from using this instead of stock motor 👍.
Its possible, but WHY.....Now that rig is not even close to being competitive option with others. SMH.....Just cuz its cheap and you could....doesn't mean you should.

Not truly a review, I kinda came up with it 😅. But yes, the amazon "kit" is a copy of this and should work the same 👍☺️.

Thank you, I'll keep watching for your upgrades my friend!
Really a top conversion for this chassis to give it the low end power it needs - thank you very much for your work.
You should do some more videos with this crawling on forest trails and on rocks. The slow crawling really makes it look good
I wish I had the time to do so. I kinds make the upgrades and then live through watching other making cool videos of it!😅

52 Degrees was the breaking point. I actually got about 50 degrees.

Niiiiiiiice, i just bought one, cool little truck, i still wanna buy the XMAXX
The wheel weights probably help combat the weight of the motor as well. Looks nice and torquey

Could you explain the part about having to cut off the esc mount? Do you have an install video of this upgrade?
G'day m8....What a great upgrade.....i thought the Axial Rx/speed controller had 3 break speeds 100%, 50% and 0%, did this not work on the 370 motor?
The 3 speeds is just a gimic. It limits the trottle input. Tou can do the sae thing by not pulling throttle as far.
Just getting on board with these babies. Do you have any specs for the 370 motors? Thanks for the video. Will be ordering some of those mount for sure.

Nose looks like it wants to lift. You have the brass front diff cover? That might help even more.
Look closely, I had placed the front shocks in the wrong location in this video causing it to have a "lifted" look in the front. Didnt realize until after I recorded.
Why didn’t axial put this motor in from the start
They want to save money and keep from making too strong of a vehicle that would self destroy if put in some young kids hands I bet. The tiny stock wont break anything although it will burnup super quick😂
Because it is entirely unnecessary and likely makes crawling performance worse. My stock SCX24 would do 49 degrees incline and 37 degrees side slope. That is measured with a carpeted board and actual angle meter (not a cheesy phone app).
any special pinion/spur needed to run this? im wanting to order two of your motor mounts but want to make sure i get everything i need.
You can use stock spur if you want slowest speed and just use a 10t mod 0.3 pinion for the motor. Just make sure it has a 2mm bore.
I now need to order my motor, but I'm seeing variations.
What turn motor should i get, if you were to guess?
I like the stock speed of the scx24, no slower, because this one will be a trail/crawler, somewhat in between crawler and trail.
Thanks for the video, I look forward to more creations!

Nope, just put a pinion on the 380 ang mount on plate. The motor mounts on same side as spur gear.
Do you offer the motor mount for the outrunner motor on another site besides Shapeways? Their wait time is crazy and I want to install the Holmes hobbies Revolver in my scx24. Thanks
Just there. I just dont have time or a good enough printer to make them as good of a quality as they do :(.
How do I get one

Totally gnna buy one
Selling this mount on your site by chance?
what did you use for transmission, or is that a Shapeways Mounting plate.
Stocks trans with Shapeways mount.
what are you using for a pinion gear?
Can you share the link of the plate you got on your scx24
www.shapeways.com/product/B9RBQMX5Q/axial-scx24-deadbolt-370-motor-mount?optionId=116750059

@@Gamyrc My dude! Thanks! I'm going to try to get an 11t gear. I have the same set motor.
Will a Tamiya 380 brushed work on this mount?
Whats the bolt pattern? Distance between holes?
How many teeth was the stock pinion?
Did the esc hold up?
Yes, but there are many new motors out now that work much better than this me 👍.
Why dont just air down! Duh!
Confused🤔
