Holmes Hobbies Launches TorqueMaster Expert 550 27T Brushed Motor
Capped at 45: no evidence this is newly released (newness not assessed; date is crawler first-seen only). Holmes Hobbies is a strong-fit brand for this show, but their historical coverage pattern is specifically crawler motors/ESCs/servos — this TorqueMaster Expert 550 27T is a brushed motor with no crawler-specific framing (no gearing/kv for crawling, no crawler branding), reading more like a general basher/on-road motor, which the brand's track record shows is NOT typically covered.
