Meet the Reedy Crawler 550 14T 5-Slot Brushed Motor, the same powerplant that comes in the Element Gatekeeper! This high-torque, 550-size motor is now available separately to drop into your favorite crawler.
What We Like:
In the past, most companies include electronics that ‘work’, but don’t necessarily work. Reedy has changed that game and given us a motor that actually WORKS, featuring a 14T output for speed in a 5-slot, 550-size can for immense torque – all the things you want when out climbing on the rocks. It also has 0° of timing, meaning it will work in vehicles that require a reverse-rotation motor. It comes with leads already installed and bullet plugs for easy connection.
What We’re Not Sure About:
There are a few things we’d like to see different, the first being the leads. While it’s a nice addition, they’ll only work if your ESC has the female plugs to match. Secondly – internal bushings. However, I only consider this a partial fail – while bearings would be better, bushings are really low maintenance and won’t potentially bind up after you trek through the water a couple times.
