NO, that motor is way too small for the MERV. This one is much better.

RE: MERV motor selection.
oh okay thanks. thats very good then! maybe i will get the 18MT instead. besides, i really don't have much money and the revo is very expensive for me right now. i have also been looking at the helion animus 18SC.

Before you convert the 18MT to brushless, get a steel spur, a slipper unit, steel differentials and steel outdrives. The stock drivetrain shreds when you give some throttle with brushless.

RE: MERV motor selection.
You can just Google 'RC18 steel spur" if you found one that isn't Integy (Integy = crap), Google 'RC18 slipper clutch', if you found one, Google 'RC18 steel differentials', if you found those, Google 'RC18 steel outdrives. And I forgot the dogbones, the stock ones are plastic, so also Google 'RC18 steel dogbones'.
