Sorry, one last question! I can use a 540 can motor right? My stock one is a 550 but someone is telling me I must use a 550 and not a 540

you can use the 540 I've used a 540 motor in my trx6 as a temporary replacement and it's works fine

A 540 can motor is less powerful than a 550 all other things being equal.

I'm using a axial 540 on my trx6 and it works great compared to the titan 550
