Description
Holmes Hobbies Revolver V3 540 Sensorless Brushless Outrunner Motor. Do you need a small and light motor for your vehicle, but do not want to sacrifice torque? Do you want the finest sensorless brushless low speed control? The Revolver 540 is an extremely torque dense and lightweight choice with exceptional startup and feel that rivals brushed motors! The 540 model is two times more powerful than the “Snubnose 540” model, and provides an unmatched torque-dense driving sensation similar to a diesel engine.
Now the V3 has more mounting positions, beefier wire retainer, and thicker back iron. The magnetics changes give all models more torque, drag brake, and static hold! If you currently run a Revolver Classic, then you have already experienced the force of v3 magnetics. Improved rpm lock and anti stall characteristics make these a real pleasure to drive with modern Castle Creations and Holmes controllers!
NOTE: To prevent motor damage, be sure that screws are not inserted more than 3mm into the mounting holes.
Applications:
- 1:10 scale Trail and Scale rigs (SCX10, SCX10.2, SCX10.3, Wraith 1.9, Enduro, TRX4 Sport,TrailFinder 2, etc..)
- Competitive RC Rock Crawling (RECON G6; SORRCA; WRCCA; etc..)
- Educational, Recon, or Battle Robots
- 540 is recommended for “rock racers” and 2 speed vehicles, such as the TRX4, Wraith, Bomber, etc…

- Exclusive Holmes magnetics offer buttery smooth industry-leading startup without sacrificing torque

John Scheinberg Verified Owner Thursday, Dec 1 2022 (about 2 years ago) Holmes Hobbies Revolver V3 540 Sensorless Brushless Outrunner Motor (1400kV) Massive torque on 4s and just insanely smooth. They are loud! Even for an outrunner. But wow, if you enjoy the sound like me it’s just even better! The throttle control and drag brake are crazy. Running on weighted capra 4ws with mambax. 1 customer found this review helpful. Rider Decker Verified Owner Sunday, Jun 29 2025 (3 months ago) Holmes Hobbies Revolver V3 540 Sensorless Brushless Outrunner Motor (1400kV) Outstanding! Running it on a Furitek Python X and 1500mah 3s in my 8lb TRX4 base class 2 comp crawler. 45/9 gearing. I’d recommend a lower KV if you run a heavier truck and/or taller gearing.
