Sounds good. I'm debating 45t or 55t motors in my clod. But I do think I'll go with 55t and run them on 3s.

Keeping in mind this is mocked up for now, i had to make sure it all worked good first. Clod now has longer wheelbase by inverting the upper/lower links. *Chev body seen in pics are temporary until i recieve my ordered 1980 Proline bod, painting it black.  Servo box now on framerail  |
