Yes. Try Searching "Novak Mongoose" in an Advanced Search with Losi Mini Rock Crawler selected.

I have them in two of my trucks and love them. Lots of torque at slow speed and tons of wheel speed when you need it. I have updated drive shafts, tranny, and axles to hold up to the power they provide.

Even though they say you can run a 3 cell don't. I burnt min up running 3 cells after a week. Run 2 cell. its still fast enough and it will run forever. Plus if you run it in a comp you can only use 2 cell anyways. |

| BEC related question...
If I were to run this combo with Lipo would I need a BEC also?

I have a Mongoose in my 1.9 and I run a 5995TG servo without a BEC, no problems. A Tekin FXR with a Slider has close to the same feel and more speed and power. |

Question for you guys running the Mongoose setup. I've ordered this for my MRC and was going to pick up a couple lipos as well. I was looking at either the 800 or 1100 mah Maxamps packs. Is the C rating on the packs really that important for crawler applications? I understand what a C rating is, just wondering if having a pack that is rated at 25c is completely overkill and wouldn't benefit a crawler motor setup. Anyone have any idea what type of run times I could expect with the Mongoose and a 800 mah lipo? |

seems like maybe these systems may all be just a bit different.....I definitely needed a BEC with a full sized servo.... I run a 1350 mah thunderpower and a 14 tooth pinion for comps and play around time and have had zero issues....great system  |
