You can use an integy 45t motor and when he gets more later I would get one. But the integy 45t will work fine right now. They are $24.99. |

I would stay with brushed motors and run a 45t or 35t on a 3s lipo. Unless you have a sensored brushless esc you would not have very good low speed driveability, and I believe the holmes brushless motors are not sensored, but his brushed motors are excellent. As for servos it all depends on how much power you want and how much you want to spend a Hitec 645mg will work fine at about $35 or you can go for a servo with 300+ oz of torque but they will run anywhere from about $120 to $200 I have been running a Hitec 5995 on a couple of my rigs for close to 2 years without a problem if you do run something with over 200oz of torque I would suggest also running a bec even with a lower priced servo it wouldnt' be a bad idea.
