OK any recomended motors that will work with stock gearing or how much is new gearing for that motor
thanx
Do you want a 19t? or do you just want a faster motor? (if you want a faster motor i inderstand why!!!)

Here is a 23x2 the standard ESC should work with [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXJAK6&P=7]Team Orion 23 Turn Double Formula SV2 Pro[/link]

if you want to go really really fast get a modified motor 10t or below. but a speed controll to match it would cast a bit. Or go brushless!! but thats even more expensive

Look into a Monster Stock 2 27t. Geared 19/61 in my TT-01 I'm pushing an easy 60kph (around 40mph I think).

Haha if you are computer illiterate, you probably don't know what it really is. I just wish the news paper he was reading said "Microsoft Bankrupt" or "Bill Gates Owns the Worlds Biggest Scam" or "Linux chucks a big dump on Bill Gates Chest" .... LOL you get what I think of Linux over Microsoft.

I use to run a 11t in my TT-01, I posted somewhere a little while ago all the problems I had.

Yeah, I'm getting a good charger and Power Supply on monday. Going to cost me just over $150 for the lot. Then my next thing I want is a Novak SS4300 system. I went from say I was going to get a Neo 3 star and Sphere ESC, but then I had a thought about what I really need, and I only need around 30mph and lots of torque... So why pay an exyta $100 for something I don't really want, or need. Also some people say the ESC is bad, because it can't run brushed, and glitches. I have brushed ESC's if I want to run brushed, and I run matched battery packs with a decent radio, with little aluminium on my car, so I seriously doubt it's going to glitch.

EDIT:

I moved the Rx to the rear of the car. It was too close to the motor and ESC.

That's a good plcea to try mount the Rx, I might try it, but I think I have my body to low to do so.

Also, GET AN ALLUMINIUM PROPPERLER SHAFT!!!! They are so much smoother, also get ball bearings if you dont.

I would also buy some decent rubbers or foams.

Also what are those plugs, they are like a retarded looking deans plugs, but with a bit missing from them, and stuff kinda wrong looking, what are they? Also heat shrink each of the tabs so you don't short out your batts

The plugs are from Multiplex/graupner.
They can pull 60 amps continiuos....more than enough for this aplication.

I use them on all my rc stuff, so it all fits my charger.



(still painting the plane, so its not finished! )
