45 turn seems to be a popular choice. Handwound's are nice, but some cheaper Integy's will do just fine also.

ESC is up to you really. The Tekin FXR is popular, as is the Mamba Max.

Before you order anything, I'd suggest going over to the Berg section, and read, everything.

I read every post in that section twice before I ordered any parts, there is some great tech. in there.

Welcome to the site.

So can every other esc that's rated at half the turns of the motors you'll be using (eg 27+t for 55t, 22+t for 45t etc)

55t motors IMHO are to slow.

Out of the last three trucks I have built I have run 2 of them with 45t HH motors and one with 35t HH motors.You have great slow speed control and plenty of wheel speed.

I would recommend either 35-45 t Holmes Hobbies Hand wound motors and CC speed control.Either the Mamba Maxx or the Sidewinder.OH yeah on 3 cells.
