Default RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

ORIGINAL: Fire106

Hey guys,

Ok so instead of doing a nitro to electric conversion I did some trading with a local guy and got an old electric evader. It has the stock speed control and a "atomic force" 17 turn motor. Now its time to upgrade!!!
This is my first electric truck so im trying to learn as much as i can before I buy stuff. This is just going to be a basher so i dont want to spend too much......but i would like speeds in the 40's.

Im going to go to my LHS today to see if i can get the B2 diff and rings.

I know a lot has been posted here about motors and esc's. trust me....im going to read all i can

I have about 150 to spend on motor/esc. any suggestions?

get a brushless novak XBR 8.5 with 7 cells it should get 40 mph and it cost about 150 after the 25 dollar tower coupon... and NO MAINTENANCE, Great ESC for brushed motors too it has no limit.

heres the link..... 169.99 minus 25 tower coupon = 145$ cant get better than this
