Traxxas nailed the 2 speed transmission. The best in versatility and very hard to beat for a all around truck.

[@ExocagedRC]

yes they sure did, the whole truck is stout and capable

[@mr4x4s]

Preordered two of these myself. I was pleasantly surprised earlier this week when I came home to find them sitting on my porch!!! Love them!

[@darrinwoodward14]

Installed the 1800kv version on my modified gen 7 pro and absolutely love it.its a slow crawl beast!!

[@roytownsend4008]

Absolutely love this motor, it's so buttery smooth in my traxxas trx4 blazer. And the wheelies are awesome in 2nd gear. Also the program card for my 1080 worked fine changing parameters, so if you have one laying around you don't need the led program card

[@mickd8188]

Cool info about the card..! Thanks Cheers 👍

[@warbuzzard7167]

I just bought this motor for my Element Gatekeeper. Glad to see it is working so well for you!

[@adamgriff7286]

That system is epic 👊

[@chrispearce9224]

The 2300 Pro is amazing. Thumbs up from me. Loving the wheels on the Bronco. Good choice. Now I want a set. LOL.

[@anthonyescobedo2142]

Thank you for a good review of this product. You have answered the questions I had and make the decision to put one of these both of my TRX4s.

[@TruckTechJoe]

Just put mine in my Base Camp, so smooth!!

[@michaeltrilck5680]

A perfect choice, i think! Espacialy in this 2 Speed TRAXXAS NEW BRONCO... It crawles AND runs... A fine Trail Crawler... 👍👍👍😁

[@GazooRC]

This is good to know. I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to put in my wife’s Bronco. Thanks for this review Joe.

[@ExocagedRC]

thank you for watching

[@timothybrown1189]

I like to shift into 2nd, get the truck to barely move, set the cruise and shift down to 1st for an insane slow crawl. You cannot stop the wheels from spinning. I love the fusion.

[@jeffreypursley1914]

Might have to find a good reason to put this in my wife’s Ecto. “I dunno honey, guess the original motor burned up or something, darnedest thing”. Thanks for the review, have a great one.

Gotta love the Fusion!

[@ArmanRC]

so nice performprom this fusion HB awesome

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

May put one of these in my red bronco. I like to try and get get crawlers as quiet as possible! My Blazer has the Castle Mamba X SCT 1415 2400kv system in it. Fantastic combo as you know. On the fly “basher” (haha) and “crawler” modes vis the app and Bluetooth link. Power for days. But dang if that castle whine isnt annoying! 😂 Kinda like savox servos. I like em. Have them in several of my RC’s including my Kraton EXB 6s. It’s really annoyingly loud but I only hear it for brief split seconds ha.

[@RCCarsLover]

Good rc mod, thanks for sharing good 👍

[@garywynegarsvikingrc843]

man thats awesome!

[@one4x4nut]

Have the 1800kv one and love it other than it could use a touch more speed, this one looks promising as long as it stays cool.

[@FarmerFpv]

I'm sunning min on a 13t pinion and 2.2 tires. It doesn't even break a sweat.

[@travisharrisphotography]

@@FarmerFpv How much faster is the top end with the 13t vs this video with the stock gearing?

[@paulcook1275]

I been waiting on u to review this motor I got mine as soon as it was available and went in my modified gen7 and over my 2300 axe and 1800 fusion it's by far the smoothest

[@evintacy7272]

Your comment just verified how much I need this set up! I love my 1800 fusion ! Thank you

[@paulschryer9571]

- Thank you Paul for the specific info/feedback on the HobbyWing FUSION 1800Kv, for I have yet to install & run it, in my GMADE (GS02F) !!! 🙄... I believe it "will" be the smoothest motor, for (ANY) Crawler !! 👌 😁 I am really lookin' forward to the NEW H.W. FUSION PRO (2300Kv) Motor, as I anticipate my "desired" application(s), - will require me to have this newer H.W. FUSION PRO 2300Kv !!!! 😉 ...But, I do NOT want to lose the torque, that the 1800Kv might have, - over the "2300Kv motor's "quoted" (by manufacturer)... high-er RPM range, if that is truly "how" that works !!? 👍 - Now, I can stop worrying 'bout missing-out on the H.W. Axe 2300. 😆 - Thanks again, for your input, it is greatly appreciated !!! 👌

[@taxationistheft2.0]

the first few seconds sold me. hahah

[@braddahdussifyoumuss596]

Love the videos dude!! Would like to see how you set this motor up on the program card… I’m having issues with my max reverse item, when I lower the value of the item it slows my forward motion down and not my reverse 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ maybe it’s still got some kinks to work out lol

[@jaybomb5022]

This is the Best power system on the market paired with the Worst servo to come in a standard crawler lol. My Steering servo was upgraded immediately, best mod ever.

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

That servo 🤪

[@pandacrawler6x6]

A Very Cool Mod!!!

[@travisharrisphotography]

THIS looks great! I have had the TRx4 for 6 years (my son and I love them). But, now hes 10 and wants something faster, LOL. I wonder, if we did the 12T pinion on the motor, this would give maybe some more on the higher end?

[@secrest1970]

Cool rundown! Did you change the BEC setting?

[@keldonator]

I hope to see you try this motor in the redcat ascent

[@rcmudplug55]

What you say compared to the axe I use the 2100kv love the lunch on it and turbo settings!

[@product1982]

wanting to drop this into my gen 9, somehow fried the stock ESC so i guess its upgrade time

[@bbeckers24]

Can't believe you still have the stock servo in that thing lol.

[@ExocagedRC]

its the 2055 its traxxas servo but its not stock, not even sure they are selling them any more

[@stephennapier7994]

Did you change the servos for the transmission and differentials?

[@tocacarcraze]

Can you see if that motor will fit in a stock Capra 🤔 or are we stuck with 540 or upgraded skid

[@RcCrawler82]

If your running a traxxas battery, what adapter would you use to go to the fusion pro?

[@ajustice2010]

Does the fusion pro power the RX or would I need a bec? I’m planning to run a direct power servo

[@FarmerFpv]

The motor itself is a 540 and has the normal diameter. The rear portion is all ESC and SBEC. If you remove the ESC SBEC it's exactly the diameter of a 540.

[@Slaters_RC]

I would be launching that servo as far as I could into the woods. It’s almost as bad as a outrunner on a castle esc.

[@ExocagedRC]

LOL its not quiet at all!!

[@a4Audi2153]

were you using a 2s or 3s battery?

[@jdsrcs8061]

Ok im going to order a few of these for my sport and 10.2!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘 Which wheels are you running ???

[@ExocagedRC]

I use all kinds of wheels from Vitavon to Treal and TGH and all the cheap ones on Amazon

[@blakedenley3792]

I've seen the fusion 1800kv melt in a 2speed transmission running an 11t pinion

[@ExocagedRC]

We have quite a few of them locally, issues happen though

[@kuvyoghmoobamelica6883]

Would you recommend the Fusion SE 1800kv? I know its not as good as the 550 2300kv.

[@MrStingraybernard]

Pulled the stickers off the windows to make them clear

[@tomlucasrccrawlers9108]

Nice review. I was told even though the 2300 is shorter than the 1800 , it's wider. I'm curious if the rotor is also wider.

[@ExocagedRC]

not sure I'd have to open it up and I haven't got that done yet

[@tomlucasrccrawlers9108]

@@ExocagedRC I'd honestly be scared to open it up....I'd probably beak something. Hahaha

[@valuerc2664]

Why did you buy a motor mount that doesn't fit properly? I never broke factory motor mount

[@bradlycruse73]

Just curious if you’ve had any experience with the Spektrum 2 n 1 vs this one? Great videos Joe!

[@skirmich]

They are basically the same... The Spektrum unit is a rebranded Fusion.

[@LongRangeOutlaw]

Is the Spektrum compare to the Fusion or the Fusion Pro?

[@return_to_agartha]

I badly want to test 2 of these out in my 22lb Clodbuster 1/6th build --- hard to decide to replace what works so well already but would be nice to get rid of all the wiring of twin ESC's and twin brushless motors. Can they run on 4s though? or 6s maybe even?

[@michaelwillett1990]

Hey was this done on 2s or 3s ?

[@keithjung3544]

Love my 1800kv Fusion! Will have to order the 2300kv version soon. Can you use the same programming card from the 1800kv or do you have to purchase a separate one specific to the 2300kv???🤔

[@roytownsend4008]

I used the programming card from my hobbywing 1080 and it worked fine. You just need to use the sticker that comes with the motor as it only has like 13 parameters bot 15

[@wgmainline9812]

Adding to the first comment you can also use the card from your 1800 KV motor. Just reference the parameters in your 2300 KV manual. The first item has an additional setting for the forward/revers options. I think the rest are the same.

[@EricsRC]

What did you program your settings to?

[@orion000]

The 2300 is super snappy in reverse and drive. I need to adjust the settings

[@minnesotacowboyup6549]

Will the hobbywing work with the TQI blue tooth?

[@abzyberdy]

Hey. What is the difference to hw axe ecs and motor? I have 2300kv combo. Is it only eliminated esc as a separate piece?

[@skirmich]

Fusion has: -Less powerful system compared to the AXE. -Lack of RPM/Throttle settings. -Lack of Bluetooth connectivity. -Lack of motor swapping capability (As in just buy a different motor to change KV). Gains over the AXE: -Simplicity. -Weight reduction.

[@johannwitt1854]

Will it fit in the Vanquish Phoenix?

[@predator50260]

hi, i buy the fusion pro 2300 kv motor for my trx4 sport. did you keep the original motor pinion? can you give me the parameter for this motor for expedition? thanks for all.

[@genesiscyclefixborneo1201]

How’s the servo after using the fusion pro? The new bec is at 6amp on this 1

[@ExocagedRC]

didn't notice any difference

[@albertgastelum2838]

Hey exo love the videos great stuff! I installed mine today and my steering is reversed any help anyone would be much appreciated please and thank you!!

[@douglaselliott8298]

OK, admittedly this $149.00 'Brushless' system is both simplified as well as performs well in crawling. How about comparing it to some Crawlmaster Pro or Puller Pro Brushed motors.

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah but its not really comparable to them due to design, I don't have any puller pro brushed motors

[@WillB.6759]

Holmes Hobbies did a comparison awhile back.

[@paultro8457]

When you're talking about the motor, what does FOC stand for?

[@ExocagedRC]

Field Oriented Control, basically the esc will keep the motor at a certain rpm loaded or not

[@19Daantje98]

Was it with a 3S battery?

[@AVERAGEJOERC]

Every time I order something on Amazon I go threw your Amazon links.. hope it helps

[@ExocagedRC]

[@seba.garcia]

Quick question, do I need to buy a different motor mounting plate in order to install this motor on my Traxxas TRX4 Defender? Or can I use the stock one?

[@ExocagedRC]

it bolts right on the stock mount

[@seba.garcia]

thanks! just got it, should I use the same 2 mounting holes?

[@JonR35]

What's the biggest tooth pinion you can go with this with stock trx4 spur. So far 11tooth hits 13mph 12 tooth hit 14.3 mph I wanna get to 15ish so a 14tooth max?

I have the Firma 2-1 2300kv on my ‘21 Bronco and its basically the same. Joe can you still use the same Programing card from other Fusion for this 2300kv fusion?

[@keithjung3544]

I was just about to ask the same question. Same programming card as the 1800kv or do you have to purchase a separate one specific to the 2300kv???🤔

[@wgmainline9812]

You can use the same program card. Just reference the manual with the 2300KV. The first item has an additional option for the forward/reversing setting.

[@skirmich]

You cant.. I tested a lot of spektrum rebranded Hobbywing systems and they do not work with Hobbywing LCD program cards and Simple program card. They require the Spektrum branded hobbywing program cards as they seem to be tied in by software.

[@clean1566]

Spectrum is an all inclusive company. They force you to buy thier radios, receivers because they want to bring you into their realm of rc electronics. It's great stuff, but you won't be able to use generic open source controls.

[@robbryan3044]

"Funny" that you purposely got a new Fusion Pro specifically for the TRX4. Why do I say that? Because I not only pre-ordered one of these, and because I received mine a little less than two weeks ago (yes, I actually had mine before Hobbywing Direct started shipping to customers...I think Amain made a 'mistake', and shipped mine early), but because I installed mine in the TRX4 Kit I'm in the process of building. Still need to decide on a body. Any suggestions (especially a Toyota body...and, even better, a hard-body) for a 12.3" wheelbase?

[@ExocagedRC]

Well, just about any 12.3 body will fit, possible trimming of fenders and stuff is needed

[@robbryan3044]

@@ExocagedRC I know "almost any 12.3" body will fit"...but, I was inquiring of anyone knew of Toyota (especially hard) bodies. The reason I was being specific about Toyota bodies is this. There's an online vendor out of Arizona who, on their website, advertises a particular Toyota LC70 body as being 312mm (ie. 12.3")...except that the manufacturer lists the current version of said body as being 324mm. Now, it is possible that the body the vendor is selling is a no-longer-in-production body, which might have been 312mm. In order to get 'clarification', I contacted the vendor and asked whether it was 312mm, or 324mm. The vendor responded back with a "snarky" reply (here's the reply I received: "either way its very small, and the rear bed can be spaced out farther 323mm wheelbase"), yet also never answered my question. I responded back, with the following: "That's not what I asked. I'm sure the product's box clearly indicates what the wheelbase is. Can you just provide that info, please?", to which the vendor hasn't bothered to reply. This is why I was asking if anyone knew of any 12.3" wheelbase Toyota bodies...especially a hard body.

[@jacobcvpi8279]

I made a big mistake not pre ordering one of these! I have the 1800kv right now in my Sport and it’s my favorite motor by far. I’d like to see how the Fusion is in SV2.

My fusion pro 2300kv sometimes just shuts off when I drive in high gear (trx6 hauler) When in lowgear there is no issue.. but in high gear it just switches off when I hit the throttle.
