Good little motor for entry level bashing. Came in my kids 2wd slash. Went through 5 motors in 3-4 months. We bash together and as often as possible. Dropped a brush on 2 of them (no response when pulling throttle trigger, only goes when push started) and others developed too much play in shaft that pinion gear attaches to. This caused motor to lock up. Buy more that 1 at a time to save on shipping. These motors will break. Save up and go with Velineon 3500 brushless motor and vxl-3 ESC. No more breakdowns and hauling a**!

I have tried several different brands of 550 motors and this one is the best Traxxas is a bad company but you can’t beat these motors I have seen 100.00 brushed motors and would never pay that much just for a brushed motor but I do wonder how it compares to this

Like any hobby there's allot of opinions and allot of people who aren't mechanically inclined or don't understand that a hobby grade RC needs maintenance. Those people are the ones who always blame the equipment and not themselves 🤷🏻♂️. It can't be helped. I've been in this hobby for over 25 years. I used to race when I was younger and back then when people were still running brushed motors before brushless became the norm, you'd be lucky to get 20 races out of a motor before it would need a rebuild. But skip ahead to today and you now have larger 550 sized, fan cooled Brushed motors that will last for several hundred runs before needing to be replaced! The Titan in my Bandit and Slash have been absolutely amazing in terms of overall lifespan, torque and speed. They're just good fun to use! What kills these motors is when people try to copy what Traxxas does in their videos. Running through water and Mudd without cleaning the motor and Lubricating the bushings with a quality bushing lube like Turbine Lubricating Oil. Water will wash away the lubricant on the bushings causing the motor to have allot more internal friction, same with Mudd only now add in the sandpaper affect that dirt has. So with basic maintenance the Titan will last forever just about. Unfortunately the Titan I got was defective from shipping. One of the wire terminals broke off during shipping, so I had to send it back. Read full review

A solid time tested motor for remote control toys. The one design fault is that it has a tendency to get really hot when used continuously. Could use a good heat sink!
