Overview
The Powerhobby 050 High Torque Brushed Motor is a bolt-in performance upgrade engineered specifically for the Axial SCX24 1/24 scale rock crawler platform. Stepping up from the stock 030-size motor to a larger 050-size brushed motor, this complete upgrade kit delivers significantly more torque, smoother low-speed throttle modulation, and improved climbing capability for technical trail and rock crawling.
This convenient package arrives pre-assembled with a precision 64-pitch 11-tooth brass pinion gear and a dedicated motor mount, making installation fast and straightforward. It is the ideal torque upgrade for SCX24 owners who want serious crawling performance without sourcing parts separately.
