anything with metal gears and 80oz of torque (or more) and decent speed (.12 or better) will work great.

Any recommendations on a steering servo (digital)? Or at the very least, the torque needed for a vehical like this? THX

Finally got to run my B44! Works great! Handles really good, until the battery goes caput! I think my charger is trash!
Any way, the only issue I have with the construction of the B44 is the batteries are to close to the rear drive shaft, I moved them out as far as they could go and it still eat into my battery wires slightly. Have any of you had this problem? I can't see how you couldn't!

yeah, I caught mine before it come out. Thinking of triming the outer edge of the battery insert to allow the batteries to move away from the center maybe 1/4 inch. I am in need of a new charger now anyway, so it may be a while before I get to run it, I don't want to ruin a $45 battery pack, so that sucks! But I should have one next month, I hope!

What batteries are you running? I just run these.
www.cheapbatterypacks.com
Best cells I ever used for racing.[8D]
These are custom made batteries for the B44, I didnt have to solder or shrink-wrap 'em.[8D]
