The stock 380 motor has plenty of kick
All you need to do is take out that 600mah bat pack and throw it in the trash then throw a pack of Matched 1100 cells in it.
I did this and i couldn't believe the power it had.
I also threw in a Novak XRS ESC which is also a sport reversible speed control
but it has much better braking then the stock one
Tower Hobbies has a ton of stuff for the Vendetta.
