INJORA 540 Brushed Motor 35T - Waterproof, Rebuildable RC Crawler Motor for 1/10 Scale

The INJORA 540 Brushed Motor 35T is a waterproof, rebuildable power plant built for 1/10 scale RC crawlers and monster trucks. It uses dual ball bearings and high-strength magnets to deliver consistent low-speed torque, weighing 184 grams with a 3.17 mm output shaft. This 35-turn motor is a common choice for rigs like the Axial SCX10 Pro, TRX4, and Redcat Gen 8 where smooth control matters more than top speed.

What makes the 35T turn count a good fit for crawlers?

The 35T winding strikes a balance between low-end torque and moderate wheel speed, helping maintain control over rough terrain. INJORA recommends 35T and 45T for RC crawlers, while 35T also suits monster trucks. Lower turn counts like 13T or 21T fit drift cars, and higher turns like 80T work for tractor trucks. This makes the 35T a versatile middle-ground option for scale trail driving and technical crawling.

Size, weight, and electrical details

Note: The 50,000 RPM rating likely applies at higher voltage; actual speed depends on load and voltage used.

Which RC vehicles are compatible with this motor?

INJORA designed this 540 motor to fit many popular 1/10 scale trucks. The package lists support for the VP VS4-10, Redcat Gen 8, Redcat 7 Pro, SCX10 Pro, and other similar crawlers. Direct-solder tabs let you install it in various chassis layouts, and the 3.17 mm shaft works with standard pinions. Check your vehicle’s mounting holes and gear mesh before purchasing.

Dual ball bearings and rebuildable design

Two ball bearings support the rotor, reducing friction and allowing smoother spool-up compared to bushings. The rebuildable design lets you replace brushes and springs when performance drops, extending the motor’s life. When installing, solder wires directly to the tabs — no connectors needed. The compact 36 mm diameter fits most standard motor mounts in 1/10 scale chassis.
