RE: the unofficial home of the dumas dauntless

Actually, the EVX speedo is rated for two 550 motors or a single 775.

RE: the unofficial home of the dumas dauntless

I would like to see a photo of what you are trying to replicate. But basically, a scale model should have everything on it as close to the full size as you can make it. If that means painted, then...

RE: the unofficial home of the dumas dauntless

Do you have an ESC yet? If not, look at the Traxxas EVX-2. It is waterproof, runs dual 550 motors or a single 775. They can be found on eBay for cheap because lots of sellers buy new Traxxas vehicles...
