Default What are you guys powering your Sawbacks with?

Like the title says, what are motor, battery, ESC, and gearing are you running?

Axial 27t motor on the AE-2 esc, Futaba 3pl radio using 4200mah 2s, changed pinion to a Traxxas 12t to eliminate noise in gear box just like above.

Sidewinder V3, cheap atomik 35t, 1300mah 3s, stock gearing. I get about 1hr run time per battery, but I'm mainly crawling around real slow.

AE-2 with an Axial 20t motor. Nice combo for any trail truck on 2s LiPo, IMO.

I am toying with the idea of putting a Sidewinder 3 + 1406 series 4600kv brushless combo in my SB... Anybody tried brushless on their SBs? Too much?

You can put in whatever fits, but that's way too much IMO. This truck doesn't need a brushless system, even a 55t tamiya silver can with an old nimh pack would be enough. It's a scaler

Yeah all that power is just going to twist the leafs.

I run a 27t arm pulled out of an old 24deg stock motor dropped into an old mod can on 2s.
