i will get the RPM bearings and arms but im more then confused about the motor setup ... on what will work with my car and what should i look for! for example - would
this setup work for me? or should i go with a smaller one like
this? do i need to change the gears as well?
i would be more then thankful if somebody could help me out!
thanks
What are you going to be using it for? Race, bash, street? That motor will do nicely over that brushed motor the stock motor in the Flux is a 4000kv 4 pole and it is plenty for that little vehicle
