The Crawler 540 Tuning Rotor – 14mm (#5950) was designed to alter the feel and experience of driving a Novak crawler motor, and offers a new dimension of tunability. With a larger diameter and improved magnetic material, the rotor provides more torque and stronger braking. It also increases natural drag braking and improves the motor¡¯s initial throttle response, providing more control on steep climbs and downhill descents. The crawling sintered rotor is compatible with both of Novak¡¯s SS18.5 (#3419) and SS21.5 (#3420) Pro Crawler Brushless Motors.

With its larger diameter, the new tuning rotor also cuts down the air gap in the motor, leading to more refined controllability.
