Honestly you don't need to bump a thread the same day you made it. It's rude and pushy.

EDIT: Woops, excuse me, sorry

I read the month as the day. My appologies.

To your question though.

I would go for a Reedy Quad mag 19t. I know it's not on your list but it is a great motor for 1/10 buggies and ST's. It was my favourite motor I ever owned. Had way more torque then my brushless, not quite the RPM though.

That ESC is on the cheaper side, but it will do.

Also make sure you are using deans plugs.

actually someone suggested the reedy quad mag..i knew it was a better choice i just wanted opinions on the others...i'm probably going to go with the reedy just because it's been reccomended twice now


the deans plugs...are they more efficient or whats the deal with those..i was gonna pick some up the other day but they were completely out at my local shop (go figure,they never have anything)

Probably they didn't have them because they are so popular.

The deans plugs offer lower resistance when joining your ESC and batterery (just solder the ESC tires to your motor). This means you car goes faster and accelerates faster, running more efficiently.

I really recomend them.

they never have anything..plus there kinda shady..my friend from work ordered a pull start for his 4 tec,payed in advance,the day it came in they had a race and sold it to someone else,they told my friend it would be mid decemper till he got it,he wasnt waiting a month to get it..thry tried to tell him he didnt prepay and he had to fight with them to get his $ back...i'd say they were out because they never stock anything

i use that esc with a method 19t double in a stampede. more power and speed with longer run times over stock. it is basically my 6 yr olds now. it is inexpensive and works well enough for me
