Losi brushless, traxxas brushless. there are no-name brands that sell them, but they are not exactly "quality "

Status: offline 		I would agree with Pede_kid. Those Nitrotech/Redcat/Exceed/Himotos look like about the cheapest. They all look pretty much identical to me.

The Brushless system is from Novatech. So it should be pretty decent. Should compare very well to the Velineon. On paper the specs are pretty much the same. Perhaps buy a nice car (read Evader or E-Firestorm) and fit one of these Novatech systems?

That is... IF you can find one of those systems for sale anywhere. If anybody sees them somewhere? Please pass the word?

Thanks.

how do you know that's not a brushless system for 1/18, not 1/10?
I don't see any specs on there, and the price looks like 1/18

Like I said, I couldn't tell ya for sure.
