SCX10ii electronics, CrawlMaster and SHV500 wiring

[@Browneye57]

Thanks. Just got one of these, and had a CrawlMaster Pro 13T on hand for a SSD chassis built. I think it's gonna work out great. My old Vaterra's are getting tired. :) Found a very slightly used Spektrum SR310 to add it to my TX. Just complicated enough to make it fun.

[@Jstall7543]

The torqued numbers on the servo are insane!

[@dogcrick]

Great job John! Can't wait to beat on the new servo!

[@HolmesHobbies]

Should see one in the next few days, sir!

[@kennethrhea7746]

Great stuff man. Cant wait till I make a purchase for one of those servos. Waiting on the scx10 2 to get into stock. Cant wait to get the build going.

[@dennisgardner750]

Cool Cool Cool. Thanks for the great video John, good info without being too overwhelming.

[@HOYFABCRAWLERS]

Great video,completely answered all our questions, thank you.

[@coreykurtz1404]

Thanks for the info. U been putting out some great info. Vids lately, besides that crazy house build. Lol, I have not tried your products yet, but this next build will be your equipment, can't wait, that servo looks crazy

[@HolmesHobbies]

thanks Corey!

[@mikeshobbiesandrandomstuff]

i love both my BRXL-WP esc's. :) might need one of those some day though.

[@HOYFABCRAWLERS]

About to install ours now👍🏻

[@johnnycash7803]

You could just add a small 3s lipo with a jst connector right? kinda like a nitro truck. So I don't have to solder?

[@HolmesHobbies]

you could

[@marks9897]

is a JST pigtail included with the SHV500? Great ideal for not running a Bec.

[@HolmesHobbies]

yes it is!

[@RocketDogRc]

why a 12 volt steering servo? what is the advantage of a 12 volt servo over a 6 volt servo?

[@dogcrick]

The advantage is more direct power and you don't need to buy a bec so the install will be cleaner.

[@HolmesHobbies]

The lack of BEC is pretty dang nice, it is the main reason we developed a 12v servo. Additionally, it allows for higher transit speeds without losing a drop of torque. 520 ounce/ inch at 0.08 transit, running cool as a cucumber!

[@FrancescoSequenziaSeychelles]

Lovely John, adding a resistence inside the servo circuit can make a sense to run also at 4s directly without any pain... what do you think?

[@HolmesHobbies]

Not a good idea, the power level would put a lot of waste heat into the voltage divider.

[@FrancescoSequenziaSeychelles]

Ok, I understand, but is a shame that not work directly on 4s, can you imagine your market over the 1/8 offroad buggy? could be more possibilties for you to expand over that. by the way tks for the answer

[@FrancescoSequenziaSeychelles]

Just one thing more John, the motor rotation you intend on the shop options is cosiderated by viewing the motor at the brushes side or at the pinion?

[@johnrobholmes]

We might be working on that feature for the next batch :D I can neither conform nor deny...

[@johnrobholmes]

pinion side

[@thomasdavison7184]

I am trying to order this servo and I cant find it on your web site and it is out of stock everywhere else. Can you help me find one or do you still make them?

[@HolmesHobbies]

currently not in production. Working on v3, but it's months out.

[@ajsmcs]

I would love to see a video where you compare the different top speeds and crawling abilities of each of your different motors that you recommend for the SCX10-II. I'm in the market. ;-)

[@HolmesHobbies]

It is a good idea for a future video. We just need to select one rig and spend all day recording speeds.

[@zionicest]

I'd like to see this as well.

[@Powerpickle68]

Will that servo work okay operating on 6 volts from internal BEC's?

[@HolmesHobbies]

It is designed for 12v input only.

[@Powerpickle68]

HolmesHobbies Thank you

[@humblerc841]

did you flash your own firmware in the esc, or is it stock?

[@mikeshobbiesandrandomstuff]

has his own firmware as all his stuff does they run way cooler than stock.

[@RocketDogRc]

this makes a lot of sence, then why not plug directly into the balance plug

[@HolmesHobbies]

An adapter to power the servo through the outer pins of a balance plug would work. But then you have two plugs to plug and unplug every time, and balance plugs aren't designed for any plug/unplug cycles. 30 to 50 cycles is about all they take before the tension falls and the plating gets worn off. One main plug with a pigtail to power the servo is our recommendation because of these reasons.

[@RocketDogRc]

+HolmesHobbies that makes sense thank you for all the information

[@toolstechandtoys5910]

What all would you recommend for the scx10.2 electronics wise to have it have a lot of torque and low slow speed but have the extra wheel speed not quite as much as yours though and also the best crawl servo and ESC from your brand

[@HolmesHobbies]

For brushed, a 27t motor and BRXL is always nice. Brushless, a Puller Pro 540 2700kv. The SHV500 servo is what we run on all the shop rigs now, direct 12v power so no BEC is needed.

[@Zsoltnlv]

I REALLY like the 12v Servo idea!

[@ronnieterryjr4485]

I'll like your show is thank I watch more of your shows than anyone else show can't wight to bye your products and put them I'm on my fist build scx 10 2

[@HolmesHobbies]

I appreciate the support!

[@mnicol007]

i want one...lol

[@Objectivityiskey]

He's looking at it, and it says 5000 and 3s... :-(

[@HIinfidel]

Objectivityiskey----- 4 beeps from the esc means 4 cell lipo

[@HIinfidel]

Objectivityiskey----- it's says 35 not 3s on the lipo lol
