Will this motor fit my 1/10 scale Axial SCX10 or Redcat Gen8 crawler?

Yes, this is a standard 540-size motor designed specifically for 1/10 scale crawlers. It has standard mounting holes and a 3.175mm shaft that fits these popular platforms perfectly. You can swap it directly into your SCX10 or Gen8 without modifications.

What voltage can I run this motor on, and how do the turn options affect performance?

This motor runs safely on 7.2V to 12V DC, which covers typical 2S and 3S LiPo batteries. Lower turn counts like 13T offer higher wheel speed but less torque. Choose higher turns like 55T or 80T if you need precise, slow-speed control for technical rock crawling.

Since the motor is waterproof, do I need to clean it after running in mud or water?

Yes, even waterproof motors need basic care after wet runs. You should rinse out any mud or grit with clean water. Dry the motor completely and apply a drop of oil to the bushings to prevent rust.
