Default possible new mini lst

i have a trade offer for my hpi wheely king as a roller for a mini lst and a nylint 1/8th crawler. im already thinking of brushless for the mlst. what system should i go with. im looking at the mambas but dont know what speed and runtimes to expect from each system. also is there any issues with going brushless that i need to be aware of like cogging of stripping diffs?

I wouldn't bother with a Mini LST 1. By the time you get it to handle brushless you will have paid more then you bargained for. If it was a Mini LST 2, I would say definitely. Personally, I would rather have the Wheelie King. Not to mention trades can be tricky sometime.

just curious, but are you gonna do two brushless motors with it? Can one brushless esc handle two motors? forgive me if that's a stupid question, I'm a nitro guy and just got into the minis not too long ago.

You would need two ESC.. I wouldn't use two brushless motors though. The performance is not that much different (you gain a little more torque) and one motor will start to spin faster then the other and burn it out. Just stick with one
