Default Seeking your expert opinions!

So awhile back I purchased the axial blazer, my boy and I had fun crawling so I purchased a trx4 sport for the boy to thrash. Here's the conundrum, I have a castle mamba x and 2850 sensored combo in the blazer. Tomorrow a Holmes hobbies revolver 1800kv out runner and sidewinder 4 will be delivered. Now, do I keep the castle system in the blazer and install the revolver in the sport, or do I do the opposite and put the revolver in the blazer and the castle in the sport? Your opinions are welcome and appreciated!

What do you want to accomplish with each rig?

I think the sport is geared higher, so the lower kv motor might suite it. The 2850 is a handful, there is a gear somewhere in the 10ii that's slipping with the power. I want them to keep up with each other, I'll be pissed if the kid can get up something I can't, and vice versa.

I would put the 2850kv motor in the TRX4 and gear it 45/10 and put the 1800kv Revolver in the SCXII. The trucks will have about the same amount of wheelspeed and both will have tons of torque (although through different means).

Thank you for a concise recommendation, I was kinda leaning that way. The sport is actually a good crawler! What I paid for the sport compared to what I have in the blazer is very lop sided, yet the sport does everything the 10 ii does. Really impressed with that truck! Unless someone comes in to convince me otherwise, the sv4 revolver system will go in the axial and the castle 1850kv system will find a home in the sport. The kid will love the wheel speed and I'm a little more patient, ha!
