RE: Electric Savage

I was wondering if I could just buy an E-MAXX spur and use some gears for the motors made by Traxxas. Would that work or will the E-MAXX spur not fit on the Savage. I was thinking about using all the...

RE: Electric Savage

Just purchased 2 550s on ebay. This thing is starting to come together. Another thing, do the gears on the motors have to be the same size?

RE: Electric Savage

Is there a difference between electric car motors and truck motors? Do the 2 550s give enough power to do some off-roading?

How well does that run emu? And what motors you got in it? Also, how about you monsterrcbuilder04? Would a 970 size motor be good enough? Does lower turns = more power?
