I heard that the titan 12t motors have been known to burn up so I say we can change the motor but it has to be a TURE 12t motor..... I know they might be cheap but with my luck I don't want to be buying 12 titan motors so I can find one that wont brun up.. Open for discustion.......

| The speed contol will handle it, but it doesn't like it trust me on that. As for the motors I think a 12t 550 can or a 15t 540 can motor would be great.
