that the atomic bb motor for the micro t with lipo was just as fast as brushless. i didnt think that was true but what do you guys think?
i thought the bb was just as fast as the factory motor?

No. The bb is just a little faster than the factory motor but lasts longer... Even with the lipo and the bb, i still dont think it would be faster than brushless with a full charge on the stock batt...

bcus i lost the screws that hold the engine in place so the spur and pinion gear intertwine(motor mount screws i think) to my factory motor does the bb come with more of those screws?

well it may go 23mph
but i sure as hell will not last long
BB
doesnt stand for ball bearing
it stands for
brass bushing (just like stock)

i have the BB and it makes a huge difference.

buying a new motor makes a huge difference. these things wear out quickly and are built to the lowest possible specs. Wait a few months then go buy a new stock motor, it'll make a huge difference.
Brushles is not worth it in the Micro-t unless yu have money to burn IMO, you may gain runtime but the $100+ it'll cost you to do it isn't worth it for 1-2mph gain in speed, especially when you can buy decent lipos for $20 a piece. Mind you I am biased as I never really enjyed my Micro-t that much anyways. Most overrated micro or mini RC IMO.

big green, i know what you mean you have to replace alot of stuff to go brushless and i can imagine it would probably be pretty hard too steer some thing that small going so fast
its just too much money
