Update: Got my Holmes Hobbies Cobalt Puller 7T motor in the mail today, been waiting for this for awhile now. Here's a few comparison pics between the HH7T and the HH 540.

Because of the new motor is a bit longer than the old one, so I had to re-locate the battery to the rear of the chassis and removed the truggy bed.

Update: Look what showed up today...Tekin T35 Heavy Duty motor!

http://i1179.photobucket.com/albums/...IMGP0158-2.jpg

http://i1179.photobucket.com/albums/...IMGP0171-1.jpg

By far, out of all the motors I've used on this rig, the Tekin T35 Heavy Duty is my favorite. As you can see, my SCX10 is getting dirtier each day.

Anyone else try to do parallel parking with their SCX10?

After having all those fun times with the SCX10, I end up with a broken drive shaft. Looking into replacing both shafts, any recommendation?

mycrors4 10-07-2011 08:43 PM

go with the MIP shafts if you can afford em, or the junfac ones

both are really good, ive had experience with both

Did the Tekin 35T come with any wiring? I am thinking of getting one but don't want it to arrive and then realize I should have bought wire and connectors at the same time.

you just have to soldier your ESC wires to the tabs. i may be wrong but like any other brushed motor it comes with just the motor, meaning no wires

winner here is right
just solder the esc wires onto the motor

most high end brushed motors do not come with wires.
