Default thinking about going brushless....

i have seen some conversions on youtube and other places and i also like the fact that i will now be able to avoid $40 a gallon for fuel while also getting twice the power.

this is my current plan for the conversion:

[link=https://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=3728&Product_Name=TURNIGY_Plush_100amp_Speed_Controller]this esc[/link] or [link=https://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7341&Product_Name=SuperSimple_100A_ESC]this esc[/link]

two of [link=http://www.spcracing.com/index.php?productID=60]these[/link] in series or in parellel depending on where i'm driving and how much carnage i want to cause[>:]

a feigao 9xl or 10xl motor

a kershaw designs conversion kit

and [link=http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7028]this charger[/link] with [link=http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=6569&Product_Name=Twin_pack_charge_lead_(2_x_3S)6S_]this[/link] so i can charge both batts at the same time.



what do you guys think? i'm open to any suggestions.

I'd say get A Mamba Monster MAx, thats what most people run on these conversions...

Mamba Monster Max with 8XL Fiego seems to be most popular, so I think 9 or 10xl would be awesome power...
