I thought I heard you say something about them coming out. Are they going to be installed on the cars to so you can by them already on or just a upgrade. I do not know anything about electic r/c cars so how much better is a brushless and why? I keep reading in all the mags that everybody in converting to them or coming out with them on their cars.

For now they are just going to be available for upgrade. But you never know what is in the future.

Would this system be suitable for a Traxxas Rustler?

I'd also be interested in some specs. or a pointer to a manual.

Thanks.

Leon.

it would work in any car that take s 540 motor, you would probably need to run 9.6 pack or lipo.

motor is either the 5500 kv, 5000 kv or 4000 kv from novatech.

ESC is unknown... its not on the novatech website.

It says novatech on the esc. If thats the case then it should be pretty good. Novatech makes some pretty good stuff.
