hi im looking to go brushless in my rustler and i was wondering if i can buy a redcat racing brushless system. if so where and how much? are their brushless systems any good? will it make my rustler faster than stock?

Ive never seen the redcat brushless run in person yet, but i picked up my 60 amp 8.5t ezrun setup for 115 shipped on ebay. I like it, but its sensorless so it coggs at first. Ive heard great things from the redcat system though

Think we still have some around here.

Thank You

jeez i woulda figured that redcats systems would have been cheaper. i think i would be better off with a sidewinder then

sidewinders is still 150, and redcats is sensored, sidewinders is sensorless.

yeah i know but for me all i do is bash so i dont really need sensored

I forgot, but ive heard that the sidewinder cc 1/10 mamba motor's rotor is only a 380, in a 540 can. Im not sure if its true but ive heard it a few times. Like the ezruns with the fins on it are 380 sised rotors, but the fins make it a 540 can, but the ones without fins are actual 540 rotors.

oh ok i planned on getting a traxxas vxl motor with a sidewinder esc

The redcat system is NOT sensored. It's sensorless and I think the motor could be a bit better and the esc isn't all that great. It coggs quite a bit and with only the 3300kv motor.

And I've never heard that the mamba motors use 380 sized rotors. I've heard that on the ez-runs, the 9t, 13t, 19t, etc, etc use 380 size rotors and that the 13.5, 8.5, 17.5's use the regular 540 size rotors

im starting to think about not getting a brushless system for a while yet

Whoops i thought it was sensored. Ive yet to hear a bad thing about the redcats brushless, but i havent had it personally.
But i love my ezrun, i would deffinitely buy one again. Ive had no problems at all with it.

Novak also makes a realy nice Sensored brushless sytem 90amp for less than 150 ish. those ezruns are a nice setup we just started selling those in the store. I got turned on to them by a customer who raved about them. so we tried them out and liked them. they sell like hot cakes and everyone loves them.
