Well I have been racing trucks for awhile now, and I purchased a Losi XXX-SCB and after realized it was a Brushed Motor...

I did some research and am planning on purchasing a Castle Creations Sidewinder SCT Combo 3800Kv   (ESC & NEU-Castle 1410 1Y 3800 Kv) to replace the Brushed Motor.

Has anyone done this upgrade?

Does the Motor and ESC fit inside the buggy?

Just Curious prior to purchase...

I appreciate your time,

Cole Mayfield
