Thanks for the links. I didn't expect a brushed motor to be that much! How will the 35t perform? Would you recommend upgrading to a brushless setup? If so, what kv would I be looking for? |

There are cheaper motors you can buy. When I first started I bought a pair of Integy motors for $20 apiece for my XR10. That was two years ago and they are still going strong...but I've serviced them regularly. Typically you get what you pay for....especially in this hobby | |

Thanks for the info. I will run the stock setup for awhile, I just want to get ideas and info now. I've been looking around and I have seen lift kits. Is that a good upgrade? It mentions it is needed for running 2.2" tires. Can you use a lift kit with stock tires/rims? Will a lift kit make the truck perform better? |

A lift kit will also put you COG (center of gravity)higher making it top heavy Aren't those 1.9s on there now ? If you want a bigger tire and wheel try an IROK by RC4wd...it's pretty tall and you won't have to buy a set of 2.2 wheels. Your best bet is to make a list of things you want to do to the truck, especially if you're on a budget... do some searching in this forum...there's a ton of info on 99% of your questions. |
